Great Design and Quality Finish

It truly is smokeless grilling unless you use a cooking spray on the grill surface (learn from experience, yes). Steak, chicken, and burgers all cook perfectly with grill stripes and the flavor you expect. As a new purchase, I can't speak to the longevity of the grill, but the quality certainly jumps out at you. Very easy to clean as all the parts are detachable and dishwasher safe. Using water to capture the smoke is a clever design and can also be used to add herbs for cooking flavor. The glass lid includes a gasket that helps seal in the cooking odors. High quality all around. My one objection is the lack of incremental temperature control. The digital control panel lights up for easy use with a plus/minus touch pad. The manual does not touch on the heat control at all. The temperature control I miss is 325 and 375 degrees. Unless I missed something, the user must choose 350 or 400. This would only be important for certain recipes, but still, it is strange not to have that control. My model did not come with the griddle attachment, but more temp control would be good there. Just so you know, it does not come with a built-in timer and shut-off, so no unattended cooking here.

Loved it!

This grill is absolutely amazing! The product is not too heavy and grills so fast. I tried some patties that were cooked on the grill and they tasted fresh and delicious. I would recommend this product to anyone and am excited to use it again. I wrote this review as a part of a contest!

Pretty good

It may have been my fault I may have had the temperature up a little high but my grill did smoke phone everything directly. Make sure the pan was full of water washed everything off with soap and water. Now I did put the Burger on their Frozen but it should have still worked without all the smoke like I said I did have the temperature up a tad bit High but my grill marks were great the burger was great it didn't burn it just had a lot of smoke and that was my first time yes I would recommend it

Bought this grill and returned it the next day. After preheating I put chicken breasts that were pounded to approximately 1/2" thick on it, set a time for 8 min and when I came back to flip them not only were there no grill marks it had barely begun to cook it was still mostly pink and raw. That was at 350 so I flipped them and bumped temp up to the highest setting of 450 and still no grill marks and barely cooking. After 30 min and still not reaching temp I removed them and finished cooking them in a frying pan. When I was standing in line to return it I couldn't help but notice that someone had also returned the same grill.

Perfect for Busy Lives and Apartment Living

Moving to a big city, one of the things I missed the most was the ability to easily grill. However, this product makes grilling in an apartment easy and is not time consuming. I can quickly grill burgers, chicken, and veggies in no time! The built in fan works perfectly in preventing smoke and smells from permeating the entire apartment. And it's super easy to clean! The oil put on the grill goes into an internal tray, so as soon as your done cooking all you need to do is wipe it down! I would highly recommend to someone else - really great for apartment living! I am writing this review as a part of a contest.

Don't waste your money on this - really!

The "smokeless" part does work, but it's the only thing that works with this product. As a grill or a griddle it is useless. There is a 100 degree difference in the surface temp from the right side to the left side when using the grill. When using the griddle there is a hot spot in the center. The two sides won't even brown a grilled cheese sandwich while the center is burning it. It has the most un-even heating of any devise I have ever seen. The only thing it will be good for is taking up space in a landfill. So sorry we wasted our money on this.

Pleasantly surprised with overall performance!

I really love my grill! I was worried it wouldn't get hot enough, and while I do cook everything on the highest setting, it does get hot enough to sear and scorch the food. The fan works great, no smoke indoors. Cleanup involves quickly removing 4 pieces (cleaning three, the non-stick grill, the non-stick under burner pan (catches particles) and the non-stick liquid pan (catches liquids/grease.) Because it's just a matter of lifting them out and non-stick, it's fairly easy to clean. I found I use this so much that I now just keep it on the counter.

Easy

If one can read and understand the instruction booklet. It is a great tool for indoor BBQing. Easier BBQ to work on the planet. Unless, one is a Rock with Lips. We all know those humans, they seem to have the fire department or ambulance, in front of their residence, once a Month.

Couldn't be happier

This is our 2nd grill in the last 2 weeks. We returned the first one because the heat distribution was horrible and cooking was very uneven. We couldn't be happier with this grill. So far we've grilled steak, lamb chops, hamburgers, turkeyburgers and salmon. Everything cooked quickly and perfectly. We rarely use the highest setting because it's unnecessary. The built in fan does a good job of eliminating most if not all of the smoke. Cleaning is not the most convenient and not like an outdoor grill but considering how well it grills I still gave it 5 stars.
