Handy [Posted on 2008-06-16] I took this on an RV vacation and found it handy. It worked well without the mess of charcoal & the need for a tank. If you have electricity available this is a good grill.
Disappointed George Forman Indoor/Outdoor Grill [Posted on 2008-06-18] this grill was a disappointment. The actual cooking top is 17" although from the description it appears to be 22". Our original Forman grill was 22". This grill is less sturdy.Generally the quality is not as good.
Three words say it all: Made in China [Posted on 2008-06-25] The heating element stopped working within 6 months of purchase.
The unit also continually tripped an indoor breaker. Maybe I can
use it as an outdoor planter, although the condo board would
surely disapprove.
Does not heat up [Posted on 2008-07-02] This grill does not heat up enough for steak.
You can fix grilled vegetables, hamburgers, meatballs, chicken thighs or salmon just fine as those will taste great with lower temperatures and longer cooking time.
I have wasted more than $100 worth steak on this on several occasions, hoping that the grill will live up to the expectations this time. You just end up boiling the meat in its own juice, and the most tender cut eventually gets inedible.
I had the same experience when I bought the removable plate next grilleration after my old george foreman. Maybe there's some safety issue, but in any case, -repeat- this grill is not fit for steak, FYI.
A wonderful indoor grill [Posted on 2008-07-24] I love George Foreman grills. I have two of them. One is a flat grill with a lid on and the other is GGR50B that I am writing a review about. I purchased GGR50B January when heavy snow downed all over the city and it was my oldest's birthday. It was easy to set up and operate for a person like me who do not know much about machenical stuff. Setting up the grill was actually done within 5 minutes.
I was a little worried about the electricity bill coming the next month. However, I was so surprised to notice that the bill the month came out to be as much as it used to be. Rather a lot of saving compared to using our traditional gas oven, with which I had to pay hundreds of $$ for a few times of cooking. This grill is a great energy saver! When you set the temperature to 350 - 400, it heats up to the setting in a minute and hibernates itself unless you open up the lid too often. Our electric bill never goes over $40-$50 a month, which is a lot cheaper than using a gas oven that used to make me pay $200-250 a month. The truth is electricity is cheapter than gas!!! Now i have paid off the gas bill that was a little behind, and never need to use the gas oven again! I cook meat, pizza, fish sticks, cheese sticks, hamburgers, buns, rice( put rice in a little steal pot and put the pot on the grill ), picnic pork shoulder, and anything I could imagine is possible with this George Foreman GGR50B grill.
Cons: Too bad the lower body is made of plastic. If it was made of steal and was compatible with charchoal use, this grill would be the best grill ever.
