Product Description
If you've ever traveled to Switzerland perhaps you sampled one of their national dishes, known as raclette. If not, picture this: creamy Swiss cheese which has just melted, scraped off to blanket a plate full of seared potatoes and a smattering of sweet gherkins. A fun and simple dish to make that is sure to be a hit at your next dinner party. Leider hosen optional.

Makes food taste great. Wonderful for a small party or family meal. Can talk and cook at the same time. Really enjoy it.
 Great concept, not so good execution December 19, 2006

Was thrilled to discover Raclette cooking last new year. Purchased this in April 2006 but just used it for the first time this past weekend. I agree with previous reviewers that the clearance between the little slide-in trays and the heating element is quite poor. Pile the food too high, even just a small to moderate amount is too high, and it starts to immediately smoke and burn. The top grilling surface is hard to clean, be sure to have a little non-stick cooking spray or olive oil on hand ahead of time to help. After one use the grilling surface already looks a year old with the amount of stains it has.
I was also surprised that at full power, the 'broiling' effect on the cooking of the food in the slide-in trays wasn't that strong and that food took a long time to cook. Haven't noticed any frailty in the food trays, but I will definitely be taking it easy with the grilling top surface.
Kind of disappointed. For the money it should have been better all around.
 Grill top very bad quality October 26, 2006

Being Swiss, I know how what normal wear and tear is on a racelette oven. The oven itself is great, and the little pans are made of good non stick material. The top grill however is of very very poor quality. The coating was starting to chip, in addition to bubbles forming on the surface just after a couple of uses. I do NOT recommend this grill if you want to be grilling on top.

We tried Raclette several times in Germany and loved it so we came back and bought this one for ourselves. This one does not have very much clearance between the little food tray and the heating element so the food has to be very level or get scorched. Also, the cleanup is very difficult. I tried soaking the top in water with dishwashing soap and it actually ate the teflon away in some of the areas. We still love Raclette and we will use this simply because we paid too much not to but I would have been happier paying around $25 for this set.

This is really a wonderful item. The grill heats evenly and to a very hot temperature so that food cooks quickly.
The pans are truly non-stick and the melted cheese slides out easily. A fun item for small dinner parties, as friends will quickly learn to use this item, even if they are not familiar with the tradition.
Only two flaws to this appliance: The electric cord is too short and requires an extention cord, and the non-stick cooking surface, while functional, is too thin and scratches easily, showing metal. Otherwise, you'll enjoy it.
