Thanks for asking this as I was about to ask the same question. I have only just discovered panini and make mine in a grill pan with a weighted pan on top so I'd love to know what I am missing by not having yet another toy. ← that will work fine also, if you have one (i got one as a gift) you can use one of those george foreman grills, just weight the top down with something (i use a dictionary)..and you can get the small ones for ~$15 usually
