Breville BGR400XL Ikon 1800-Watt Removable-Plate Grill Review

UPDATED REVIEW Oct. 15, 2008:

Well, I posted a nice review on Dec. 27, 2007 after purchasing this grill.After use of 2 to 3 times per month for 9 months it's totally stone cold dead.Plugged it in the other night, no lights, no heat.I am very disappointed.I will be trying to receive a replacement because it's too late for money back.Just wanted to post an update on the product.

I would have rated with 0 stars but it would not let me change my previous star rating and would not let me post another review.

FIRST REVIEW Dec. 27, 2007:

Pros:Very easy to remove and clean the grill plates.When you replace the grill plates, they are secure.Cooks meat to perfection and makes a wonderful panini sandwich.Top locks in place, cord stores securely underneath for space saving upright storage.Clean stainless steel design.

Handle remains cool to touch.

Can be used under overhead kitchen cabinets.I have 18" from the top of my countertop to the bottom of the cabinet front and I have 1" remaining with the grill fully open.

Cons:Does not open all the way to lay flat for use as an open grill.

Product Description:
With its powerful 1800-watt heating system, this tabletop grill can cook food 50-percent faster than traditional grills. Its interchangeable flat plate and two ribbed plates allow home chefs to grill steaks and make pancakes. The unit also provides adjustable height control with its floating-hinge top plate, which can be adjusted to six pre-set heights. Lower settings reduce the weight pressing upon more delicate foods like fish or vegetables, while higher settings work great for making open melt sandwiches or reheating. The removable non-stick plates firmly lock into place and can be removed with the touch of a button. In addition, the unit's adjustable-tilt feature controls the angle of the grill's lower plate. The "angle" position offers reduced-fat cooking, draining fat into the drip tray, and the "flat" position functions as a griddle for cooking eggs and pancakes. Nonstick plate surfaces ensure simple food release, and the plates clean up easily by hand or in the dishwasher. Other highlights include variable temperature control from 350 to 425 degrees F, a polished die-cast metal arm, an attractive brushed stainless-steel body, and a design that locks closed so the appliance can be stored on its side to save on space. The grill measures 16-1/4 by 16-1/4 by 8 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Eware 3K076 Electric Indoor Raclette Barbeque Grill with Fondue Pot Review

Worst fondue pot ever.Sure, neat grill & broiling abilities. ABSOLUTELY NO INSTRUCTIONS WHAT-SO-EVER!!!! Oil doesn't get near hot enough to cook meat.It has a setting 1-5, but no explanation for the tempertaures of 1-5.Might be good for cheese or chocolate, but don't get your hopes up.BTW, don't bother looking for the company that made this, I can't find a thing on it.I was hoping to find better instructions or some sort of customer service line, zilch.I would not recommend buying this. I'll be lucky to get half my money back if I decide to sell it on craigslist, ebay, or a garage sale.Very disappointed.Take this as fair warning.

Homeimage USA iEG-100 Electric Indoor Raclette Barbeque Grill Review

Raclette is related to Swiss Fondue and is another Swiss cheese tradition. Originally, raclette was mountain cheese held near a fire and the melted part of the block scraped off onto a plate with potatoes and gherkins. Now, it's a fancy grill used for parties with trays beneath a heating element to melt cheese, and a grill on top of the element to cook sausages, shrimp, meats, veggies, pineapple, and even crepes. This raclette grill has some notable advantages:

1. It's oval, meaning it will work on a round table as people can access their melting trays from all sides.

2. It has a pancake and grill portion on the top grill.

3. It's very affordable.

If you want stone and not teflon, this isn't the one you want, but considering its advantages and that it is a great price for what might be only a party appliance, you can't go wrong. For round tables, it's a must.
