I bought this after reviewing what was available in indoor table top grills. We've always had a different more advertised brand, but after our third one died, we decided to check out what else was available. I like the different grill plate options and the ease of cleaning. The only thing I do not like is the splatter that gets on the area around where the grill is sitting. We use it for 93% fat free hamburgers, but still it splatters more that I expected...that is the reason for the 4 star review.

I purchased the new Griddler about a month ago to replace a rebuilt Griddler that degraded and use it a lot. We had the old one about 3 years and were pleased with abilities to grill, make waffles and broil thick steaks. The improvements in the new Griddler make a good appliance greater. The plates are interchangeable as well as reversible. Separate grease catchers are not required since the new design makes the grease-catching unit integral to the Grill. We're amazed at how quickly plates heat up. Clean-up is a breeze since our dishwasher does everything.

I use our griddler primarily for bacon because it drains the grease but mostly it cooks the bacon evenly and quickly. I save the grease for burger meat, for my smoker for smoking meat, etc. I also have the waffle plates that while they make smallish waffles but do an excellent job. For a quick cinnamon waffle use cinnamon rolls! I also make grilled eggs , scrambled eggs, grilled potatoes, quick for grilling hamburgers, grilled apples, grilled ham, grilling wraps, grilled peppers, grilled cheese sandwich, bologna,

Our Griddlers are in use all the time and so easy to clean. Yes, Griddlers is plural because I bought a second one for the cottage. No more pans to clean and it is energy efficient compared to an oven. A recipe called for grilled jalapeños and it was so easy to pop them in the Griddler. Fish perfectly cooked in 4 minutes. I bought my sister one for her birthday and she uses it in Florida, keeps the kitchen cooler. My daughter-in-law and I find it helps with dieting because it uses less oil. Get one, you will never regret it.

After trying the waffle iron twice, I have given it up as a lost cause. The plates do not heat evenly resulting in crisp front portions and barely cooked back portions. The top plate heats evenly but not nearly hot enough. This very disappointing, especially since I have had such good luck with Cuisinart products in the past!

What a great machine this is! We grill our vegetables and kabob's quick and easy with this unit. I love how the grilling plates can be removed for easy cleaning. We are on a cleanse diet at the moment so grilling vegetables is a must and this reduced the effort. We just slide it out on the counter throw the vegetables on with a little olive oil and spices and viola done. We are looking forward to cooking breakfast on it since the plates are reversible and the unit folds open totally flat. Really cool feature.

I purchased the Griddler over a month and a half ago and thus far I have not been disappointed. I used the Griddler to make paninis, waffles & pancakes. Pretty great little small appliance to add to the collection. I really like the fact you can pop out the plates to interchange them along with making clean up fairly simple - wipe down the Griddler down then wash the plates.
The only warning I will give when doing paninis or waffles be patient for the heat to transfer into the thicker surface foods. Add an extra minute or 30 seconds. Other than that great product.
