I recently purchased this griddle after long consideration. I own a lot of Starfrit and The Rock products, and thought maybe I could make use of this griddle, as I trust the manufacturer, and boy was I right! Cooking for a family of 5 is difficult but with this xl griddle it's so easy. I can make 9 griddle cheeses or cook bacon and eggs and hasbrowns all at once,  and have everything ready at once for all 3 kids. 
I'm so glad to have this product  and i can't wait to explore more from starfrit.
