I purchased this combo set because it was on sale -$40 shipped. I actually thought it might have been a price mistake so I ordered it very quickly without looking at the specs very thoroughly.
It turned out to be exactly the same grill that I already owned. I though it was one of the newer versions with a better lid and a temperature control. It wasn't, but that's fine because an ex-girlfriend was still disputing ownership of the original one so I gave her the new one.

My experience with the grill has been great over the years. I use it for things that I probably shouldn't because it's so easy to make decent food in it. Without an adjustable lid it tends to squeeze foods more than I'd like, but in general everything comes out juicy and flavorful. One needs to be careful with the timing. One minute in the thing, even after you've pulled the cord out, can be the difference between uncooked and overcooked. You just need to develop a sense for it.
I feel like the over-squeezing is somewhat offset by the fact that you don't have to flip, or move food around, as you would on a regular grill.

The toaster oven is fantastic for the price. It is quite large and has 4 heating elements. There is a hemispherical protuberance that bulges out the back which is how one would fit a medium pizza in there as advertised.

The first time I used the oven it worked fine. the second time it stopped heating midway through cooking. Now it does not heat up at all. Has anyone else had this problem?

I was on the market for a little conventional oven, and they all were about $50.00. Also I have one of the little personal George Foreman grill and was in love with it. Once I thought the two items combine decided to buy them and I could have not done a better buy. Love it and recommended if you are in the market for any of the two items.

I bought this for the toaster oven and had been through a lot of duds. I like the oven but you need to watch it when toasting. It can toast a little dark if not careful. But overall it's big enough for almost anything and works great. I have yet to use the George Forman grill. But now that it's getting colder here in the NE, I will be using it more and more.

The George Foreman jumbo grill is by far the best grill ever I have two outdoor expensive grills and I prefer using the George Foreman... I am very please with my purchases.

I've had this for a couple of weeks now. No complaints, especially for the price I paid ($40). The toaster oven works well. Heats up fast and cooks correctly. I haven't tried the grill yet, but I'm sure it works like all Foreman grills work. Great deal when it's on sale!

I love the jumbo grill however the toaster smells like burning plastic when its turned on!
