I was thinking of buying one, but I feel I probably could just do it on a pan..more like grilled cheese sandwiches. Is the press any good? Thank you!

I just got 1 as a gift and I had the same thoughts as you but.........it is great when making sandwiches that are full of ingredients. Stuff doesn't fall out because no more flipping. I also like being able to make more than 1 sandwich at a time.
BTW the 1 I got is made by Cuisinart and is also a griddle and a contact grill so it can be used more for more things. Maybe that will help justify getting 1 if it has more uses.

I have one but I find it's not very useful because it only does 1 sandwich at a time. A George Foreman grill is more versatile and probably easier to clean.

I don't personally, but the chef in our hospital introduced us to the joys of the press. Business was lagging for the cafeteria but it didn't take two days for the word to spread and it picked up again. From the other side of the counter, I can vouch for the taste and someday I plan to get one for personal use.

A small George Foreman type grill is just as good, and a lot cheaper.

You could do it just as well in a frying pan and just press it down with a spatula.

No, but I own a cast iron skillet and a brick dovered in many layers of aluminum foil.

I don't think you should need to by a special press, but that's up to you.
