I just discovered that this very same grill (same model number) is available at Bed Beth & Beyond for $99 -- and it's not listed as a sale price. Generally the prices here on Amazon are really good, so this really surprised me. I'm wondering if I should return this to Amazon and get the one that's $50 less expensive.
 How to become an instant chef sensation! September 2, 2008

i am a novice cook of the most backward variety, knowing only how to boil eggs with difficulty. recently forced into learning how to make food for my family including my kids, i bought this grill. I tell not a lie when i say that my chicken is as good or better than anything i have ever tasted, thanks to good sauce purchases, & good chicken of course. My kids love the food. I am even gaining in confidence & trying my own seasoned oil varieties. Burgers, french fries, sausages are also excellent. Steak a little trickier. I think the heat levels, a little higher (1800 v 1500) than the majority, & the larger size make a substantial difference. The tilt feature allows the oil, fat to drip down, enabling a cleaner wash. Further, it seems well built, stands on its side which is v space efficient, & the grill plates wash well in the dishwasher. Looks nice too.
Criticisms, which do no affect cooking, limited to inability to lay top flat to make double size, & the holes in the undifferentiated top & bottom grill plates, which allows staining of the top underlying metal (the bottom hole is for the drip try) - but its not noticeable.
I would buy a larger size were it to have removable plates & the higher power, which as yet they arent. Truly a wonderful grill.

I purchased the Breville Ikon grill about one month ago at Bed bath Beyond store. After using the grill for about three weeks the plate would sometimes fall off of the top half. This was horrible because it was extremely hot and very difficult and messy to put back on. Now the very disappointing part. Last night I plugged the grill in, after waiting for 15 min I found the grill to be ice cold. I was glad I kept the box and receipt and returned this piece of junk. I had a George Foreman grill before that and that also died. It is really a shame that mostly everything made now is a piece of junk, guess I have to go back to the old cast iron pan.
Great grill! August 11, 2008

This grill is wonderful. I have used it 4 times a week since I got it. Saves getting the stove top dirty, and the removable plates are a snap to clean. I am single, and the size is good for one. I would not suggest it for more than 3 people.

I've used my grill at least 400 times in the past year, and it's never once even wavered, performing perfectly and powerfully every time, heating up to useability in 2-3 minutes. Zero complaints whatsoever.
