I like this appliance for its versatility and it’s very very easy to clean. One caveat: it’s a very heavy appliance, so you may not want to put it in a low cabinet. I made room on,y counter as I know it’s the only way I’ll use it. So far I’ve made steaks twice. Yummy! Keeps me from having to put the stove (broiler) on as my kitchen gets way too hot in the summer. When using this, I place it on a large cutting board on top of my stove so as to use the venting fan above it to deal with any smoke. I think I’ll enjoy it!
