After reviewing several other electric grills, word of mouth and family, this was the best product out there. Very easy to assemble, heats up quickly, and grills perfect.  But the most important part is the easy cleaning of the grates and the removal shell under the grates to clean.  On my old grill I use to have to put a sheet of tin folder under the grate to catch the grease.  Well worth the money for the product.  My model was a 1400.
