We received this grill as a gift from our sons who knew we loved to grill after we moved into a condo that didn’t allow gas grills on the balconies. We had our doubts that an electric grill could do a good job. Happily, we were wrong! We really love this grill and it cooks better than we ever could have hoped for! And it’s big enough for anything we would ever cook even with company. We are extremely pleased! We have since purchased the grill stand and love it as well.
