Love it! Love it! Love it!, January 20, 2007
This review is from: Hamilton Beach 25327 Indoor Grill with Removable Grids (Kitchen)
I purchased this grill after reviewing the online ratings. I had purchased a contact grill (GF) a few years ago and I had given it away due to the difficulty in cleaning - too much work and hassle.
I spray the grill every time before reheating with non-stick spray - usually Crisco olive oil spray- and it comes clean easily with no scraping. I have used it nearly every day since purchase on hot dogs, brats, burgers, chicken breasts, pork chops, filet, eggplant, squash, onion slices, sandwiches, wraps - it is great. Once I figured out the optimum thickness - about 1/2 inch- both sides brown well with nice grill marks. I do usually preheat it for up to 10 minutes instead of 5. It is the best purchase I have made for busy working professionals on the run. I can put two servings of meat and some veggies on it for a complete healthy meal.
The food is yummy! Cleanup is a snap! I have not had to put the grills in the dishwasher yet - I just handwash them when they have cooled sufficiently to handle.
We Love it! Love it! Love it!

Knocks Foremans Grill right out, January 20, 2007
This review is from: Hamilton Beach 25327 Indoor Grill with Removable Grids (Kitchen)
I have had 2 George Foreman grills (non removable grids) they were so hard to clean, took up so much room because of its shape including the lid, had to pull right to the edge of counter to clear cabinets above and that was a dangerous move because of drip pan (another poor design) but this Hamilton Beach is the best, it is square as is the lid, can lift it right up with ease, I line the drip pan (that is attached) with foil and clean up is a snap. Grids come out and go where you need them in the sink to clean with ease. I wanted to break out in song after my first clean up of this grill after having to clean 2 Foreman. I know George has removable grids now but the PRICE, WOW is a blow.

Better than comparable George Forman grills, January 4, 2007
This review is from: Hamilton Beach 25327 Indoor Grill with Removable Grids (Kitchen)
I have had this grill for three months now and have to say it works (and can be cleaned) better than the three George Forman and an older Hamilton Beach grills that I have had the past five years. In particular, it gets a bit hotter (particularly relative to the variable heat HB grill) than the others and the non-stick surfaces on the two removable plates show no signs of wearing off after several months of heavy use. By comparison, the non-stick "teflon" surface on the others wore off in spots and became hard to clean after several months of use. A good buy!
