The Star PST14IT Panini Press is a workhorse for commercial kitchens, designed to handle high-volume cooking with precision and durability. Its 14.5-inch cast iron plates ensure even heat distribution and retention, making it perfect for grilling proteins, hamburgers, burritos, and other sandwiches. The Pro-Max 2.0® series features a heavy-duty spring-hinge system that provides full-contact pressure, while the 3-inch flat landing opening not only accommodates different food widths but also prevents fillings from spilling out during pressing. This panini press operates efficiently in a temperature range of 175°F to 550°F, allowing chefs to tailor cooking to their exact needs. The built-in electronic timer ensures consistent, perfectly cooked results every time, reducing guesswork and improving workflow. Its corrosion-resistant stainless steel body and conduit-protected electrical components make it a long-lasting investment for any commercial kitchen, while the ergonomic handle and sturdy 1-inch legs add to its usability. Whether you're operating a counter-service café, food truck, or a full-service restaurant, the Star PST14IT Panini Press is built to meet the demands of professional cooking with reliability and performance.
