(More customer reviews)What a piece of junk!!!
I received one of these as a gift. I didn't really need one, since I can cook burgers indoors just fine on my George Foreman grill, but I thought I'd give it a try anyways. First off, the instructions require you to add butter or non-stick spray to the cooking surface. Why would this product not be made with a non-stick surface to begin with? The pieces of this product are all loose; not even the hinge is permanently attached, so pieces are constantly rattling around or coming apart accidentally. When it operation, the handle has an unnecessary latch that is awkward to open and close. Why a latch at all? The instructions also maintain that the device be set only on a heat-safe non-combustible surface, so don't plan on holding this or setting it down on a plastic laminate countertop. Aside from the fact that it only cooks one burger at a time (obviously), the grease collector is directly beneath the (loose) cooking plate beneath the cooking surface. So if you plan on cooking multiple burgers, there is no easy way to empty the grease trap without allowing the device to first cool down and then reheat after emptying. It is just an incredibly poor design, not taking its actual construction into account. Finally, in regards to its construction, the handle broke off the FIRST time I used it, while I was doing nothing unusual outside of its original instructions. Incredibly cheap plastic construction that apparently shatters under the weak compressive strength of ground beef! I was actually relieved that at least my kitchen would not be cluttered with such an unnecessary piece of junk as I chucked it into the dumpster. I would not spend 50 cents on such a product, let alone $30! I am shocked with how expensive this piece of junk is, and am equally shocked with the number of POSITIVE reviews for this product on this page! I strongly recommend not buying this product. Buy a George Foreman grill instead; much more versatile and user-friendly for the same price.
