Really like the convenience of this grill. No gas or charcoal to tend to. And, it cooks evenly while you can control the temperature from low to high. Just pray that it last!!!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Electric?

This grill does not cook well at all. Does not stay hot if there is the slightest breeze. Also, will not hold temperature upon placement of items to cook.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I bought this grill last year. This is only the third time it has been used, and the cord got so hot that it melted my outdoor outlet. It could have caught my house on fire if we didtn't catch it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Slow heat recovery
on June 1, 2024
Posted by: Grayjt1963
from Laurel Md
Gender:Male
Length of ownership:1 week
I purchased last week tried it out a couple days later. Took 20 minutes to heat to 350 degrees. Lost 50 degrees when opening the lid for just several seconds. Lost 100 degrees when opening the lid to add products or turn products over. Grill never got above 375. Had to wait 20 minutes between grilling vegetables to grilling steaks because the grill dropped to 200 degrees while taking the vegetables off the grill. The grill grate never got hot enough to mark any of the vegetables ang only got a grill mark on one side of the steak. What should have taken 30 minutes to cook dinner took well over an hour because the grill never got hot enough and took to long to recover any heat

I purchased this grill for my wife because of it's simplicity and good looks. She love it. It does all what we want it do. Chicken, seafood, steaks, and veggies all are done to perfection. There also the convenience of not have to load charcoal or gas to cook, just turn the knob and you are ready. Again its a great little grill.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Terrible

Takes Forever to heat up. If you want to cook dinner , start at lunchtime. If you open the lid, temp drops and takes many minutes to recover.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
