Love it!

I love my George Foreman grill. Hamburgers and chicken always taste great. As for the clean up I place wet paper towels on the grill while I'm eating and then everything wipes off easily.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is NOT a 4 serving grill!

This grill works reasonably well - but it is TINY! I made hamburgers to fit on regular-sized, commercial buns. Only 2 patties fit on the grill at the same time. This size is appropriate to cook only 1 or at most 2 portions at a time. If I had known that, I never would have purchased it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The Perfect GF Grill with On Switch & Temp ctrl!!
on February 22, 2012

I purchased this Grill to Replace my 8 year-old George Foreman Super-Champ GR18BWT. [50+ sq. inch w/Bun-Warmer - Blue]
I Wanted this New GF Grill, cause: A) It has a Power Switch, and
B) It has a Temp-Control Dial!
This One is Also larger, and it's Stainless Steel! :^)
[As of 2012, they are All Stainless-Steel with slightly different Temp-Control markings than the one Pictured]
*I didn't want one with Removable Trays, because of the poor Reviews*
I would rather have a Grill that Cooks Food correctly, instead of Easier Cleanup.

I was Excited to Receive my New Bigger, Nicer GF Grill!
When I opened the Box, I checked out everything. The Temp-Control Dial had different Markings, and it felt just abit loose when I turned it for the first time. It was Actually in the 50% Temp Position.

When I sat it on the counter, I actually took Notice of how Beautiful it was! The Stainless-Steel actually looked very Sharp in the Kitchen.
When I Fired it up for the first time using the Power Switch, it felt kinda Nice not to have to mess with the Plug for once! The Food actually started Sizzling much Faster than I Expected! And the Thermostat kicked-off and stayed that way for awhile. What I found was, that Chicken cooks Much Better & Tastier at the 50% Mark, even though it takes slightly longer than it would at Max Power!
That the Half-way Temperature setting means Less Mess & Cleanup time!

I also went ahead, and did some Quesadilla's. They tasted Better than Ever! [At 50% Temp]
This Grill is so Perfect for Sandwiches too, cause you can turn the Temp down, so that is doesn't burn the bread! That's something I couldn't do with the old one I had.
I Recommend this Grill for people who want an ON / OFF Switch & a TEMP CONTROL Setting. This is also the Perfect Size for Couples & up to 4 Burgers. I Really like how this GF Grill doesn't use much space on the Counter, yet it has plenty of space inside it to cook 2 Good-Sized Steaks!
Something about the Handle really sets this Grill apart from other Models. It's the most Eye-pleasing Foreman Grill I've ever seen. So far, it just works Great! Cleanup is just what you would Expect in a Foreman Grill - Use a Wet Paper Towel to Wipe it Clean when done. I try to clean the Grill while its still Hot or at least Warm. I Also put a Folded Paper-Towel in the Catch-Tray to absorb grease. Seems to work Best with Chicken. Steak & Burgers can fill the tray more, but I still use a Paper Towel in the bottom to help with Cleanup.
So far, I give this Foreman Grill an 'A'. It makes you Realize just how Good Food can Taste, when you take the Time to do it Right... With Temp Control!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great grilling

This is my first Foreman grill. I have made steaks, hamburgers, grilled vegies and chicken. The taste of the food is superb! No added oils. It is perfect for 3 adults. There is a temp control so for vegies the temp can be turned down. The food is cooked evenly and quickly. The only complaint, the non removable plates.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Cooks great, pain to clean

My wife convinced me to purchase a George Foreman grill product for the first time and I must say this grill really cooks well. We've done burgers, salmon, and steak and all have come out juicy and very hot. Unfortunately, I can't give this specific model a high rating due to the cleanup that is required. The grill plates are not removable and requires a lot of time and effort in order to clean them without submerging the entire unit in water. Like others have said it takes longer to clean the grill then cooking the food and in the process I end up making a mess in the kitchen. I'm returning this and will purchase another model that has removable plates that are easy to clean.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Not thrilled with this grill
on July 18, 2011
Posted by: GrillBopete
from Kansas
Gender:Female
While this grill does a good job of cooking burgers, chicken, etc etc, cleaning it is such a pain that I'm not sure I want to keep it. I misread the box (my fault) where it said "Dishwasher safe accessories" as "Dishwasher safe" and "accessories" were on two different lines (misleading).
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Perfect For My Studio Apartment

I received this as a gift from my girlfriend when I moved into my new studio apartment. Tested it out with some pork chops. Could not have been more satisfied with how it performed. Easy to use, fairly easy to clean, this is exactly what I needed for my first apartment!
I would recommend this to a friend!
