Features

  • ELECTRIC GRILL: This grill is powered by electricity to give you the convenience of grilling without the hassle of gas or charcoal. It reaches cooking temperatures quickly, delivers high temps and maintains even heat.
  • COOKING TECHNOLOGY: TRU-Infrared cooking technology prevents flare-ups, delivers even heat and cooks up to 50% juicier food. Heat is transferred from the coil to the grate and drippings are vaporized, sending the flavor back into your food.
  • COOKING AREA: Grill up to 12 burgers, 6 chicken breasts or 4 steaks on 320-square-inches of total cooking space. Cook meats and larger items on the primary grates and use the warming rack to cook with indirect heat and keep food warm.
  • CONTROL KNOB: The control knob powers the grill on and adjusts cooking temperatures. Turn clockwise to increase the heat and counterclockwise to decrease.
  • GRATES: These steel grates are porcelain-coated to resist rust and make them easier to clean. They retain heat to cook food evenly and leave impressive grill marks.
  • TEMP GAUGE: The lid-mounted temperature gauge displays accurate temps, so you always know the cooking temperature inside your grill.
  • BOTTOM SHELF: A convenient wire shelf under the grill keeps your tools within reach.
  • HANDLE: A handle located below the control knob makes it easy to tilt the grill onto its wheels for easy mobility. You can also use it as a tool bar and towel rack.
  • WHEELS: Two heavy-duty 7-inch wheels with rubber treads make it easy to roll your grill when you need to move it.
  • GREASE TRAY: A removable grease tray catches oil drippings and slides out for easy cleaning. You can insert an aluminum liner to catch the drippings and keep the grease pan clean. When youre all done, simply throw the liner away.

  • Kind of a pain to put together, but a great little grill that makes delicious food!
Color: Black Style: 2020 Model
I started to put this together by myself and definitely was easier once I had a second set of hands to hold some things in place. This does require some basic tools, so be prepared with a screwdriver, pliers, and socket wrench. It came packed really well, which was good since my box was torn, dented, and wet when I picked it up. It's HEAVY too, for a small person like myself. But since it came in many pieces, getting it out of the box was no problem. The instructions for assembly are just pictures/diagrams and not super detailed. All holes lined up though, so no issues there. I cleaned the grates before cooking, and definitely recommend cranking it up to 450 and letting the chemical smell burn off for a while. I could still smell it after 30 minutes and didn't want my food to take that on. After that, we cooked up some turkey burgers in no time. There do seem to be some hot spots on the grill, so we'll have to figure out what areas get the most heat- definitely not evenly distributed. When you open the cover to check the food, the temperature drops about 100 degrees and takes a few minutes to get back up to temp. I can't complain about how it cooks though - the food has been delicious. We did some NY Strip the second night and they turned out perfectly cooked as well. I was surprised at the glossy finish on the cooking surface, and am a little worried about cleaning it with a brush- not sure how well the coating will hold up. I'll probably just bring it to the sink and use a mildly abrasive sponge instead. I do like the portability of the grate for ease of cleaning. We easily fit 4 quarter pound burgers on the cooking surface with space left over so you can cook for a small group on this. I bought this for my vacation home, where we're too far from a grocery store for charcoal or propane to have to worry about either, and I think this is a good option and great value for the money! ... show more

  • Outstanding Grill!
Color: Black Style: 2020 Model
Excellent product at an excellent price. Just bought one; I had one several years ago and left it behind when making a long household move - and regretted that decision. Cooks nicely, gets hot and less likely than gas to incinerate your food. This grill is very well made and assembly was nice. The one mistake I made was due to not reading directions carefully. A gas grill in this price range would not be as solid or stable - would likely have very thin steel vs this one. Things to know: 1. It doesn’t heat up as fast as gas grills, so takes a little longer, especially in cool weather. 2. Drips do evaporate and give a grill flavor, but more liquid makes its way to the grease cup than for a gas grill, so check and empty it often. 3. Very important to keep it shut as best possible for better flavor and heat retention. 4. Need to be more careful to cover and/or store inside than for a gas grill since it’s electric. Obviously needs to be unplugged after use!!! All in all, a great value and now priced well below the price I paid in the past! ... show more

  • Great little grill
Color: Graphite Style: 2020 Model
I really did not want the hassle of a gas grill, or charcoal. This grill really works well for our needs. It is not a really hot grill, if you like a burnt char flavor and appearance. But I have found when using the heat is consistent, grills well, and I don't overcook foods as easily. The foods get a nice grilled appearance, and flavor. Lamb chops were juicy and cooked perfectly. Beyond burgers turned out the best I have made. The size is perfect for our deck and needs. It heats quickly, and is easy to clean. It will lose some heat when opened, but that's not an issue for what we use it for, and it seems to recover quickly. All in all, very happy, and would purchase again. ... show more

  • Best electric grill on the market.
Color: Red Style: 2020 Model
This is a great grill. I have had it for several years and it has endured multiple Chicago winters and still keeps working. No rust or corrosion.

  • It is the best, if only good choice for apartment balconies
Color: Red Style: 2020 Model
As others have stated, there is a maximum amount of wattage thar a normal household outlet will allow. In the US, that is 15 amps or approximately 1600 watts. This means that this little guy will not get super hot, but it gets hot enough. It grills food well. I like to spray a little basting sauce (mostly cooking oil) on the grate occasionally to add smoke. I have found it lacking in nothing in terms of flavor, grill marks or heat distribution. I cook on number 5 always, and that is enough to grill, but never burn. As others have mentioned. The temperature gauge is not all that accurate, but it is also unnecessary. Set the dial to 5 and cook. That'd it. It was a more complicated build than I imagined, but I like that stuff. I do wish that the grill had a built in shelf. I believe the previous model did. I believe that the feature wa as deleted as it could have caused tipping problems. I justuse an old TV tray next to the grill. It isso easy, convenient and attractive that it compliments any outdoor space. Never have to buy propane. Never had a flare up. The grates are fairly non stick and are much better than the thin wire bars of some grills. Because it is so simple and easy, I do most all of my cooking on it. ... show more

Color: Red Style: 2020 Model
Back problems and I shouldn't lift propane tanks. Grill works fine but it takes longer to heat up and doesn't get as hot as my old gas grill. It gets hot enough to sear meat if you let it heat up on max for 15 to 20 minutes. In most cases you need to keep the cover down to keep the heat in. It's not hard to clean but the grate should be cleaned after each use. It's best to leave the grill on high for 15 to 20 minutes after cooking. This will turn most of the bits and pieces left from cooking to powder. Bottom line it doesn't get as hot as a gas grill. There will be a learning curve to adjust heat and time for cooking. Assembly was a little frustration. All the nuts are labeled with letter, no sizes. All nuts are metric and in a lot of cases an open end is needed a box or socket wont work. I wish I had wrote them down. No directions just follow the picture. Good luck. Update - About 10 months later - The grill never got hot enough to properly sear steaks. Heat was uneven. Finally it started to blow the 15 amp breaker. Nothing else was on that circuit. I stopped using it for safety reasons. ... show more
