I bought original Foodi grill and it was great but small. We replaced it with the first XL model and it smoked, terrible cleanup etc. This new one has been great! It collects grease better than any before and cleanup is easy. They corrected the problems with the original design. We love it.
This thing looks great but in reality all it is is a George Foreman grill on steroids except anythjng you put on the grill slides down and does not get cooked properly. Do not waste your money on this.
The Griddle is an absolute GAME CHANGER. I wasn’t sure how the griddle would perform making pancakes. I was pleased with the results, nice & golden brown on both sides. Although it’s nonstick my pancakes kept sliding around when it was time for me to remove it. I also prepared French Toast. The end result was awesome. When I prepared chicken wings on the grill grate my food constantly was falling into the grease trough. I know it was intended to catch the excess grease. I wasn’t expected to keep rescuing my food. It still cooked my chicken wings wonderfully. Since I close the lid of course grease was splattered all over the lid. For me cleaning this is especially the inside lid was not that easy & it was tedious. The thermometer is not accurate. I find it to be way off. Overall this much easier to use than the previous model. It’s a great cooker
