Product Description
Manufacturer's Description
This award winning appliance is a must have for every kitchen, featuring interchangeable griddle and grill plates and its unique design offers multifunctional cooking. The grill cooks on both sides so you can cook open, closed or even flat for a double cooking surface. This is also the perfect indoor barbeque and is perfect for the complete full English!
The spouts on the plates allow grease / fat to run away from the food for healthier, reduced-calorie cooking. The floating hinge enables the lid to rest evenly across the food for perfect cooking results. And when you have finished, the plates are easily removable and can be washed in the dishwasher for hassle-free cleaning.

This is my fourth contact grill and the best of the lot. I have always loved the concept and taste of fat reduced food but the cleaning of the others was a real chore and eventually they became unhygienic in my opinion so were binned. This one has completely removable plates which just pop into the dishwasher for full cleaning. Additionally the cooking is completely controllable which allows you to cook different foods with ease. To sum it up, a great product.

I had this bought as a surprise a few weeks ago and am very impressed. The machine just oozes quality - brushed stainless steel finished to a high standard, fairly weighty and round the back there are little lugs for cord winding storage. The booklet it comes with provides clear instructions + these recipes: Beef Burgers, Chicken Quesadillas, Honey Dijon Grilled Turkey Cutlet, Teriyaki Grilled Chicken & Pineapple, BLT, Grilled Mozzarella, Tomato & Basil Panini, Chicken & Vegetable Panini, Ham & Brie Panini, Grilled Bananas with Vanilla Yogurt Cream and finally Breakfast Pancakes with Maple Syrup
The machine heats up super-quick and even has a `sear' setting which is extremely hot. We used it at the weekend open in the middle of the dining table (make sure you put something heatproof underneath for protection) and had thinly sliced raw meat, prawns, fish chunks etc to cook for ourselves using wooden skewers even making some into kebabs (lovely) using a griddle plate on one side and a flat plate on the other so I could melt cheese for dips by putting chunks of cheese into small cast iron pots and sitting on the flat plate to heat through. Once the plates were up to temperature and had been on for 5mins I turned the machine off and it stayed hot enough to cook the food well and the plates were easy to change/clean. The approx size in cm CLOSED is 17H x 32W x 30D and OPEN 9.5H x 32W x 53D - the plates measure 29W x 23D. Finally, all dials and buttons are easy to manipulate.

Amazon Verified Purchase
I've been using this product now for about 3 months and I really recommend (based on previous disappointments) that it you're shopping for a griddle, pay the extra for this one. It's extremely good. Cleaning is easy, and it's a nice, big, metal, solid lump of a thing which looks as though it might last 20 years rather than 20 uses.
My only gripe - and in reality, I suspect this is my fault, rather than Cuisinart's - is that the plain grill plates have warped slightly. It's not a problem if you're cooking anything more than about 3 mm thick, which is what you'd tend to use the plain plates for anyway, but it niggles at the engineer / pedant's part of my brain as I try to figure out how I can straighten them! I think probably the cause of it was dumping the hot plates into a sink full of hot water and detergent, so here's a clue - if you have one of these, don't do that.
Perhaps it's just a testament to my miserableness that despite having said this glitch is likely to be my fault, I've only given it 4 stars - but I can live with that. Overall, it's head and shoulders above the nearest competition. If you have one, you'll use it - which is more than can be said for that juicer / smoothie maker / warm water footbath you've got hidden in a cupboard somewhere :-)

Toasted Sandwiches
Excellent product. Easy to use controls although the lights in the control knobs are very dim. Removeable plates are a godsend when it comes to cleaning up after use.

Good quality
This grill/griddle lives up to all expectations in how well made it is. It is very easy to use and has the added bonus of the plates being dishwasher safe.
