Electric BBQ Grill Techwood 15-Serving Indoor/Outdoor Electric Grill for Indoor & Outdoor Use, Double Layer Design, Portable Removable Stand Grill, 1600W (Stand Black BBQ Grills)

Better than expected. Surprisingly nice cooking area. The base is much more solid and better than the George Foreman similar grills. Not skimpy. I paid extra shipping of $7because the top page said I'd get it by 6/13. But after I paid (!) it swiftly changed the expected date to 6/15 which alarmed me because it was a father's day gift. It ended up arriving on 6/14 so had it for the big day. I usually never pay for faster shipping because I generally do not think it does anything. Anyway, nice grill for a small budget! The following day the coupon went up another $15 savings! Oh well... this grill will fit where others won't and yet it is not too small. No bulky propane or finicky charcoal or wood to deal with either. 1600w cooks stuff just fine! You can cook outside and not heat up your oven indoors too. Easy clean up, no ash, no propane smell or expensive propane bottles and easy to move it.

The little grill is great. My husband has used it twice to jerk chicken and he said it turned out well and was easy to use. It's nice having the metal rack like a regular grill instead of the solid surface that most of the other small electric grills have. There is some amount of smoke, so may not be good for indoor use unless you like the sound of your smoke detector going off. Good value for the money.

I purchased this grill after having another electric grill for about 8 years that finally gave out. Comparing the grills and my own experience:Pros:1. Small and fits in small spaces2. Very easy to assemble. Took me about 30-40 minutes but the nice thing about assembly is that they place all the screws, washers, lock nuts, and nuts in place where each is supposed to go. They eliminate any guesswork and also send you extra hardware in case you have an issue.3. Has an upper warming grill.4. The grill heats up quickly and does get very hot.5. Even when opening the lid, the grill does not seem to lose temperature as quickly as my old grill.6. The element is such that the surface of the grill gets more evenly distributed temperatures.7. The grill pan attaches to the element which is one of the reasons it maintains heat so well.8. The grill is also sturdy enough to hold up in some amount of wind but is also light enough to pick up and move around easily.9. It was a good deal compared to what I paid for my old one and the quality feels similar. All of the handle hardware seems excellent.Cons:1. It is really short. I missed that when purchasing. It is basically a foot shorter than my old grill. I put on a stand to raise the height.2. In order to clean it, you will have to disassemble the heating element from the pan it attaches to. On my old grill, there was a space of about 3 inches between the grill and pan and I could slide aluminum foil between the two and cook 6 or 8 times before changing aluminum foil.3. The cord is pretty short - like maybe 5' - not a huge deal for me.4. I like the warming rack but when the grill is closed it is fairly close to the grill itself - difficult if you are cooking anything with height to it on the lower grill - guess you could put it on the upper grill since it is so close.Overall I like it and think it is a very good value.

It's not very tall and the element below the grill screen is fixed so it cannot be removed for cleaning without taking out the butterfly bolts better permanently holding in the electrical inlet. The grease trap is very tiny and doesn't allow much grease at all without pouring over and making a huge mess by dripping down the column and making a huge mess on the base. Then it takes hot water and liquid done to get that all cleaned up. So if you're planning on grilling more than two or three pieces of meat be ready for a huge mess that's hard to clean up. If you turn the heat up on high after you're finished grilling and leave the lid shut then the grill itself is easy to clean with a grill brush. However underneath that catches the excess from the drip edge of the meat built up. After grilling two or three times you will need to clean that plate that allows grease to drip through the bottom. However it's not removable without taking out the whole element which would take a disassembly And reassembly. I think it was very poor design. The element itself in regard to temperature control is fine. The price is probably twice as much as you should pay for something that complex to put together and design poorly. I paid over $200 for this grill. Had I known it was so short and had I known the assembly was so difficult and had I known the drainage is horrible and the grease trap is tiny and the cleanup is difficult then I would not have purchased it. I would have gone to one of the brick and mortar stores or ordered on Amazon a tabletop smokeless grill like I had previously. I liked it much better and it was very easy to clean and it was smokeless too. I think I only paid $45 or $50 for it both times. So I do not recommend this one you're better off getting a table top one and just plugging it in outside because you have to plug this in anyway. And you'll save a lot of money. it's a total rip off. This unit shouldn't cost more than maybe $75 at the very most.
