Difficult to say, as Tefal - originally a French company - is now run by an international concern. I could not find a place of manufacture on the instruction manual after a quick perusal.

No, Panini plates are not included here! Since the plates cost approx. 20€/pc. as a replacement, the surcharge is probably due to the plates!

Regarding the evaluation, I can say that we are very satisfied with the product. I cannot answer the question about the plug.

The Tefal spare part number is SS-994382, but you can also use the spare plate for the Krups FDD95D, they are identical. The spare part number there is TS-01040300. I found them cheapest at Tefal directly for 19,10€/pc. and free shipping from 30€!

Yes 👍🏻

This product comes with one set of plates. They are removable and therefore dishwasher safe, but unfortunately you cannot replace them with another set of plates.

This appliance comes with one set of plates, for me it was a set of waffle plates.

No, only the plates for Belgian waffles are included.

It is 1200 watts.

Chine :(

According to our research, this product only comes with waffle plates.
