I bought this as a Christmas present for my partner. It's a win for both of us. He loves it and I love him making breakfast, lunch, or dinner! From what he's told me, it's much easier using this as opposed to using a stove/oven or other outdoor kitchen appliances he already had. Time wise it is incredibly convenient both cooking on it and cleaning it. We have utilized the air fryer basket a lot as well. It is also visually appealing!
