I bought this grill to replace an old Cuisinart grill I bought back in 2009 because Cuisinart makes an excellent grill. I like this grill as much as the other one. I did find that the directions could be a little clearer on a couple of things. I was able to figure things out without much problem. The grill works great. I like the fact that you can select the type of meat you are cooking and that there is a timer right on the grill.

Love this, but not sure it was worth getting the "smokeless" for the extra cost. I grilled hamburgers, and did not notice that it cooked "smokeless". Other than that, love everything else about this.

I bought this grill because it said “smokeless”. It is not! It cooks the food nicely and is easy to clean. But I don’t have a vent or hood, so my kitchen fills with smoke when I cook beef. I need to hook up a fan and open my windows so my smoke detector doesn’t go off. Not a good situation in winter!

Looked and looked and looked for a 8" x 11" cooking surface grill with reversible plates and no one would manufacture one except for Cusinart. Unit would be 5 stars if it had two knobs - One for top and bottom grill heat and the second knob for temperature. Instead there is a confusing digital screen that no one understands and does not care to try and figure out after a long work day. Used it once so far. Need a top and bottom grill especially for making hash browns. Owners manual NOT available for download on Cusinart website.

Simple and versatile griller that is truly smokeless. Controls take some time to figure out and the timer seems useless if you have a microwave.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Really like this smokeless contact griddler. Perfect for a small kitchen and to cook a couple steaks or burgers. Nice for when you don't need to bust out the outdoor grill, like the dead of winter. And perfect for a small apartment where you can't have an outdoor grill. This reminds me of an appliance I had back in the day, except it is way upgraded and better quality. And it works so much better. I've cooked meats, vegetables, panini type sandwiches and I have even made pancakes and sausage on it. Drip tray is super convenient and well hidden in the bottom where grease cannot accidentally escape.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Supposed to open up flat but doesn't quite, so pancakes creep around. Lever to open it up so it can lie "flat" is very sticky. Doesn't cook evenly on one half. Expensive. But other than that it's OK.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
