Since I can only have an electric grill at the condo, I think this was the best option. Heats up quick and cooks fast, but you have plenty of control of your settings.
I purchased this Lumin grill to replace an older small propane grill. I have been very happy with my new Lumin Grill, with the steamer basket I can steam corn on the cob, grill burgers and hot dogs at the same time. It heats up fast and I love the thermometer.
After preheating the grill is plenty hot and does a great job of cooking steaks ,burgers, dogs, etc. I'm sure chicken would be no problem too I just haven't done it yet. The grill is well made but it is heavy. A good and bad thing . Cleaning the interior is a bit of a pain . Its doable but I feel it could be made easier. I like that its fast, portable, doesn't require some kind of fuel to operate, and it does a great job grilling food for a few people.
Only used this twice since purchase but extremely happy. Grilled out one nite in Minnesota with gusty winds and 45 degree temps (still balmy) and inside grill temp registered over 600 degrees. Preheat was pretty rapid and nearly 5 minutes faster than instructions indicated. Clean up could be a little challenging trying to work around heating element and push debris through small holes in bottom to empty into grease trap.
This is an excellent mid-size grill with standard Weber quality. No need for extra fuel, just plug in and grill, smoke, or sauté as you would with other grills. Especially good for places where gas is not permitted.
