Surprisingly easy to season, and seems to produce/maintain good surface heat. Had barely any issues with assembly, and that was due to me not paying attention. All of the screw holes lined up, no issues with hardware. My only complaint is the amount of heat that vents out the front of the griddle surface right where your hands are when you're working on the surface.

I love the griddle part. It for the most part evenly heats. The middle heats up way faster than the outer edges. It was easy to season. My only complaint is the rest of it. The lid doesn't like to open smoothly. The doors are a little wonky. And the whole thing is magnetic. It claims to be stainless steel. I'm hoping whatever metal they have under the stainless steel doesn't rust. The cover is really nice.

Just do it. I shopped around and looked at competitors products for months before buying this. I should have pulled the trigger sooner. It is so fun and easy to cook on and has many features that blackstones don't. Highly recommend. My only complaint is the assembly could have been easier.

We purchased this griddle after doing a LOT of research. We chose the Member's Mark because it's made of stainless steel, and therefore, will not rust. This was purchased as a gift because we LOVE the one we purchased for ourselves several years ago. It is easy to maintain, and the folding side tables are a great added touch.

Love the size, enough btu’s to cook what ever you want to cook. But, my problem is when I put all the burners on low, I’m still running hot. A few burners on low is running 400 degrees or more lowest one is in the vicinity of 345 degrees. I cooked 3 racks of ribs that came out awesome. I had to turn off three burners, but it came out great. Took me about an hour and a half to season properly, and about two or three minutes to clean. Love the size.

I really like this griddle. Easy to put together, took my wife and I about 90 minutes. What I like: front grease trap, lid (also blocks grease splatter from the rear), 5 burners makes it easy to adjust heat, folding shelves, all 4 wheels swivel making it easy to move on the deck. What I don't like: no drawers like last years model, to much heat comes up from the front space between the griddle and frame. This is a nice griddle and easy to season and cook on. I recommend it.

Love this grill! It takes a little getting use to as it is a flat top versus a grill rack, but it works great!! I love the value for the product -- the name brand version was the same price for only 3 burners, so I feel like we got a much better deal. Plus the name brand doesn't have a grill cover, which is included in this product. I would highly recommend this product!

After reading a lot of riviews I decided to go with Member's Mark brand , I got so much more for the money and it feels and works just as good as Blackstone brand. I'm very happy with my purchase I would buy this griddle again without thinking twice about it. I highly recomend it.

Have had this griddle in use for about 3 weeks. First one came damaged but Sams and manufacturer worked hard to pickup damaged griddle and replace with new one. Love this griddle! I have cooked steaks shrimp, seafood, quesadillas, vegetables, burgers and hot dogs etc. Only downside is that the lowest setting is hot enough to cook all of the above so I would like a little more control. May talk to tech with manufacturer. I would recommend this griddle with 5 stars. Take time to season correctly and practice on family and neighbors. Definitely would purchase again!

This was purchased as a Father’s Day gift for my husband. Unfortunately, the front panel was very damaged upon receipt and was not realized until this portion of the grill was assembled (almost last). Other than receiving a damaged product, the grill is excellent in terms of performance.
