Product Description
Sporting a sleek, contemporary design, this electric grill features 80 square inches of cooking surface and a 1-inch floating hinge to accommodate thick sandwiches, steaks, and more. One of its exceptional features is its ability to sear at 525 degrees F before dropping to a pre-set grilling temperature. The grill's appeal also lies in its simplicity and countertop convenience--not to mention its fat-fighting ability. An exclusive George Tough nonstick coating protects the cooking surface, providing the option for low-fat cooking and ensuring easy food release. A digital timer and variable temperature display offer added convenience. Accessories include a plastic spatula and handy grease-catching drip tray, both of which are dishwasher-safe for quick cleanup. The grill measures 13-3/4 by 9-1/2 by 16 inches and carries a one-year warranty.

 Awesome Grill - Love it So Far! July 1, 2008

I recently received this grill as a wedding gift and have used it a few times since unpacking it. I have to say that I'm very impressed with it so far. At this time, I've cooked center cut porkchops, chicken breasts, hamburgers, and some veggies on the grill and all have turned out perfectly!
I've used the burst feature with a few of those meals and I think that feature is the best part of the machine. The "burst" allows you to sear the meat and lock in the flavor for the first 90 seconds of cook time. After 90 seconds, the temperature lowers to the set temperature and will remain on that temp until the cooking process is finished. Each meal that I've cooked has turned out perfectly - very flavorful and tasty.
Reason I give 4 Stars:
- VERY bulky - the grill is not particularly big, but the casing of the grill is very bulky - it's not a con for myself, but it may be one for those looking for a compact grill and who have less counter space
- No removable plates - although clean-up has not been particularly hard, it sure would be a perk to have removable plates...
All in all, I think this is a great grill and Amazon has the hands-down best price. This grill is at a popular bed and bath chain for $100 - you just can't beat Amazon's prices. If you're looking for a great, all around counter-top grill, this one fits the bill. The floating hinge and burst features allow you to make everything from steaks to paninis - It was everything that I was looking for!
 Not very impressive June 1, 2008

I was disappointed in the size of the grill it's just big enough for two large hamburger patties or two strip steaks. Also you can't cook two items in a row with out cleaning in between or you will pick up a burnt flavor.
Cooked ok but so far a bit disapointed.
 Best George Foreman yet March 10, 2008

This is my 3rd George Foreman grill and is by far the best one yet. I like the larger square shape and the hinge on the back that makes it easy to open and close.I just finished cooking filet mignon and they came out superb.

grills OK but have to agree with others that cleaning process makes this seldom used. Can only open 90 degrees which makes it a bit difficult to clean the top grill plate. Better option would be find something with removable plates.
 Error messages in first use February 13, 2008

Unfortunately the first time I used this I received an error message. Something like FNRL. When I called CS they said I probably used the searing incorrectly. I heated up the grill, waited for it to reach temp. Then I placed meat on grill and hit the SEARING feature. The searing high 525 degree temp stayed on for way too long, then gave me the error message. (It is supposed to only stay on 90 seconds, then revert back to the pre-programmed temp). It would not clear. I had to unplug and wait for it to cool down.
The next day I tried it the way CS suggested: I programmed it to the temp I wanted, but did not wait for it to reach the temp. I then put the meat on the grill and hit the SEARING feature. Once again, the error message!
CS has never heard of the error message I gave them. I spent too much money on this to keep getting error messages. Very annoying. Just too complicated to use the SEARING feature.
I returned this unit and would not recommend.
