My grill arrived a few weeks ago and admittedly I have only used it once.  But that is all the time I needed to be convinced of what a great appliance this grill is.  The grill is deceptively heavy for its size.  The grill and griddle plate are also heavy duty - no chance of warping with high-temp cooking.  The first use was heavily marinated chicken breasts for Fajitas and they cooked to perfection.  Switched to the griddle adding olive oil to cook the assorted sweet peppers and onions which browned beautifully.  It cooked every bit as well as my big propane gas bar-b-q.  And not a whiff of smoke in  the kitchen and no smelly smoke in my hair or on my clothes.  Clean up was a breeze.  Most of the cooked-on particles came right off under a hot running faucet and a soapy sponge took care of the greasy residue on the grill and griddle plates.  The easiest mess I have ever had to clean up in my kitchen!  This is worth recommending and I rarely do that with any product.
