Very versatile.easy to clean. Just bear in mind that it takes a bit to pre heat . Treat it like an oven in this respect. Plug in , turn on and then do prep work
This was very well thought out when made. Very nice features. One thing that was not thought out well was the handle doesn’t open under kitchen cabinet. You have to push iit all the way back to wall to open it. Not a deal breaker.
My griddler, died.had for yrs. Bought this deluxe its amazing. So much better than older model. You can lower top to melt cheese on burgers. Easy to use. Heats evenly. Love the sear button. Each plate lower and top have seperate controlls..!!!
It took me a bit to figure out how to move the plates around but instructions and videos very helpful. I love the the plates change from smooth to grill grates. Very versatile appliance. Easy cleanup.
I found the Cuisinart Griddler® Deluxe a very useful small appliance for the kitchen. Cleanup is especially easy because you remove plates and place in the dishwasher. Still in the process of learning many cooking techniques that I might use with this appliance.
I recently purchased this great grill to replace another brand. I love the Griddler Deluxe because of the simplicity of using it. I simply plug it in, turn it on and select the proper degree of heat for both top and bottom using both knobs. The knobs then are red; when hot, they turn green and then I am ready to cook. I also love the fact that I can set the top to sit above the food so I can melt cheese. I also love this grill for my daily panini sandwiches. This grill is larger than my previous Griddler that I got when they first were produced. I plan to use it for many recipes and grilling steaks, fish and pizza. I highly recommend this grill!!
