This is a great indoor grill.  It doesn't produce any smoke in the kitchen, and yet I still get those burgers with a grilled flavor.  It is easy to use as a grill, for burgers, steaks or chicken; and it opens up completely flat to be used as a griddle for pancakes or other breakfast foods.  With just a quick rinse in the sink, it cleans beautifully in the dishwasher. Great product and easy to maintain.
