This is still pretty new but so far I am pleased. The only issue I have had to this point is the first time I used it, the back came up and I’m had to turn off and let it cool down and then had to push the back down several times to stay down and in place.  The second time the back stayed down so hopefully I am good. I love Blackstone products and this is my 4th griddle and am hoping this will be as good as all the others. This 22in e series is sure fun to cook on.
