So far...Very good!!!

I have had my grill for about a month now, and so far...I find it very good!!!. Seems to be all as advertised and everything I have made on the grill so far has been very good. I have not used the griddle yet, but will soon and expect to be satisfied with it as well. A little hard to clean up, but worth it. My only complaint is that the cookbooks that come with the grill, need to be corrected as there are many glaring mistakes, which does not speak well for whomever edited the books. You may contact me if you wish and I will point you to the mistakes.

Works ok but not really worh the cost

Paid extra for the larger (XL) grill. The larger size help with the increased in grilling space. However, the fan though quiet did not completely capture the smoke (still not exactly smokeless). The heating element takes a long time to reach the temperature desired. The drip pan could be built as a drawer that can be pulled out without having to take the whole thing apart in order to discard or to fill with water.

Good for a while, but doesn't not wear well

I bought this at a Walmart store, not online, about 4 months ago. Things I like about it: It does grill steaks and hamburgers REALLY well. Chicken breasts not quite as well, but certainly passable. So, it does what it is supposed to do, and does it well. It's pretty inexpensive. Things I don't like: Mine didn't come with the griddle. I wish I had read the box a little more thoroughly. Granted, this isn't the manufacturer's fault. The cover does not seal. What's the point in having the cover if the smoke still comes out? The fan is underpowered and doesn't do a good job. It is barely adequate for the smoke created by a hamburger, and not at all adequate for steaks The grill doesn't clean NEARLY as easily as it is depicted in the infomercials. The parts can go into the dishwasher, but the grill surface itself rarely comes clean without a lot of effort. The inside of the machine gets greasy, and it's very difficult to clean that There are only 5 temperature settings. There needs to be more control. After 4 months, the non-stick grill is now sticking on almost anything I cook. It's a shame there are so many drawbacks to this device, because I was really happy with the way it cooked my steaks. I live in an apartment, can't have a barbecue grill, and this is about the only way I can enjoy a good steak. But if I had known that things went downhill so quickly with this unit, I would never have bought it.

It is so easy to use.

I love it. It is easy to use and set up. It is fast acting and after use, so easy to clean with the non-stick surfaces. It is so much better than an outside grill and can do the cooking on the counter top in the kitchen...or anywhere for that matter wherever an electric outlet is available. Loved it so much, I bought my adult son one as a gift.

Doesn’t perform as advertised

We bought this smokeless grill to barbeque indoors during winter months. We followed the instructions, using it to cook marinated pork chops. During the cooking process it smoked something terrible, even with the lid in place, water in the tray, and the fan on. While the chops did cook, the smoke output was so severe our home smoke alarms sounded. We had to open all the doors to clear the house of smoke. The thermostat is not settable based on its marked graduations. It might as well have had a knob with low, medium and high settings. While cleaning it up one of the bolts fell off, apparently because of poor assembly. We don’t recommend this product based on quality and ineffective performance as advertised

Great Little Grill

There have been indoor electric grills around for years but this finally got it right.Meat grilled doesn't have to be dry or bland but with the right seasonings this grill is perfect for my wife and I.And it's healthy too.Clean up is a breeze with the non stick plates!

Wonderful and very useful

I bough this a month ago and we are very happy at home with the Smokeless Grill because now we can cook many recipes we couldn't made in past. Is true we don't have any smoke in our kitchen and the flavor of the foods is better now. We do not found in the market any product with the features and the quality of this.

Far from smokeless!!

The first time I used the grill it was great. I cooked steaks with no smoke. But I cooked steaks again the next day and it my whole house was consumed with smoke. I gave it a third try and made burgers and the smoke was even worse this time. It just circulated the smoke around inside of the lid and did suction it at all. It makes really great grill marks and steaks taste amazing with a little liquid smoke. But I'm hesitant to try it again. Maybe it will do better with less food on it... But that's not what I brought it for!

Please make sure you are putting 2 cups of water in the water tray in the bottom of the grill and that the fan is on the entire time you are cooking.
