Amazon.com Product Description
With its exclusive Tilt 'n Drain feature, this 1500-watt electric griddle easily adjusts from a level grilling surface for eggs and pancakes to a tilted draining surface for meats to provide healthier cooking. Simply pull out on the handles to tilt the grilling surface. Push the handles back in to return to a level surface. The unit heats up quickly and distributes heat evenly, while its Control Master heat control maintains accurate cooking temperatures. Best of all, the griddle's huge cooking surface accommodates up to 50-percent more food than other jumbo griddles--it can cook up to 12 pancakes or slices of French toast at a time, which means the whole family can sit down and enjoy breakfast together. Other highlights include a premium nonstick surface to ensure effortless food release, a cool-touch base that surrounds the grilling surface on the front and both sides, a built-in backstop ledge, and a slide-out drip tray for quick cleanup. With the heat control removed, the immersible unit can be washed by hand or in the dishwasher. The electric griddle measures approximately 24 by 18-1/2 by 5 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Nice LARGE griddle!,
By ducrab "Steve" (Richmond, VA USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Presto 07046 Tilt 'n Drain Big Griddle Cool-Touch Electric Griddle (Kitchen)
I love making pancakes. In the past I would use two large cast-iron skillets for the task. I found myself constantly adjusting my burner temperature and I would always get a few very dark (or burnt) or a few undercooked pancakes out of each batch. Plus I could only cook two pancakes at a time; one in the center of each skillet (I like making large, perfectly round, 5-6" diameter pancakes.)
After much research, I finally broke down and bought the Presto Tilt'nDrain BigGriddle because I liked the enormous cooking area it offered. And I liked the fact that is was made of heavy cast aluminum and that it sat perfectly level (some griddles have sloped cooking decks to allow grease and juices to run away from the foods... NOT desirable when making pancakes or scrambled eggs.) And I liked how the griddle can be quickly adjusted so that it WILL tilt forward which *does* allow grease to run away when you want it to! (it has a grease channel and catch-tray along the front edge of the unit.) My first impressions with this unit: - It's huge! 18.5" x 15" cooking area. - It heats evenly. My infrared (IR) non-contact thermometer gun showed very little temperature variation across the cooking surface once it was fully heated (I let the thermostat cycle several times -- about 10 minutes -- before I took my readings.) My pancakes verified this finding with each one being equally browned. - The thermostat is accurate. I set the unit to 350-degrees F., and it heated to 350-degrees F. as verified by my IR thermometer gun. - The raised lip around the sides and back of the unit is high enough to contain pancake batter and keep it from spilling over and is low enough to be completely unobtrusive. After un-boxing the unit, I cleaned, plugged, and turned on the unit (set for 350-degrees F.) After a 10 minute warm up, I applied my pancake batter. As noted earlier, in the past I was only able to make two pancakes at a time using two separate skillets. The Presto griddle allowed me to cook 6 (yes, SIX!!) of my large pancakes at the same time. All six pancakes browned evenly with no hot or cold spots seen. Flipping the pancakes was a breeze and I used no oil on the non-stick surface. I made two batches of pancakes, one batch after the other, and both turned out exactly the same... and that was "perfectly." I made a two batches of pancakes (12 pancakes total) in the same amount of time it took to make 4 in the past. For the first time my whole family ate pancakes together at the same time!! So, in summary, the Presto Tilt'nDrain BigGriddle is well designed, easy to use, heats accurately and evenly, and has a very large cooking surface. Clean-up was quick and easy. I highly recommend this unit to anyone who needs a large griddle that cooks accurately and evenly. NOTE: Regarding a few other reviews here, I don't see how anyone can rate this product 2 or 3 stars, faulting the unit because it's too large to store. I mean, come on!! It's a big griddle by DESIGN!! If it's too large for you, then you should have bought a smaller griddle! ;-)

Excellent HUGE Griddle,

This review is from: Presto 07046 Tilt 'n Drain Big Griddle Cool-Touch Electric Griddle (Kitchen)
I bought this griddle over a year ago. I love it. I can cook an entire pack of bacon all at one time, six large pancakes, or four plate size pancakes, 12 pieces of french toast, you get the picture. As far as I know, the largest griddle available. I use frequently, have had no problems of any kind, including the non-stick surface which shows no sign of wear. This is a big improvement over griddles and other non-stick cookware I've owned before. Yes, it does have hot and cold spots, IF you don't let it pre-heat adequately. It's big, give it 10-15 minutes to pre-heat. Yes, you have to get creative to find a suitable storage space. I fortunately have a perfect cabinet (tall, deep and narrow) in my kitchen, although if I didn't I'd probably have to use the broom closet, coat closet, or some other unusual space. It is also a handful when washing at the sink, since it's too big to fit in the sink. However, it's hard to knock it for being too big when that's the whole idea. If you want something easier to store and wash, you'll be cooking longer and in batches. If you have a houseful of kids, you'll love this griddle. Put it under your bed if you have to.

Perfect for a family of four,

This review is from: Presto 07046 Tilt 'n Drain Big Griddle Cool-Touch Electric Griddle (Kitchen)
I purchased this griddle because the electric frypan we had was simply too small. While trying to flip a few pancakes in it, half of it didn't stay in!! The first thing I cooked with this griddle was therefore pancakes. Instead of the 4 batches it used to take, I did it in 1. Flipping the pancakes was mess-free and effortless with the nonstick surface. I have since tried eggs and also bacon. I love the tilt function with the grease trap. It definitely helps keep splattering down. The one thing you will need is space to use it as well as store it. I set it on our stovetop while in use, which works for me.
Highly Recommend this product.
