Live in a restricted HOA, so it’s an electric grill or nothing. Replaced an older George Forman with the Q.  This grill works as well as a Weber Gas Q - if you follow the directions. We grill almost every night. Made a flameless smoke pack (dry Weber wood chips, not wet, wrapped in a pack of tinfoil with one small pin hole to let the smoke out). put pack on grill bars during the 20 minute heat up period. It starts smoking, and gently flavors whatever you grill as well as any charcoal grill. Don’t discount this grill as a viable option for grilling. A little technology and innovation will get the job done with surprisingly good results. Have even grilled a smoked pork roast. Works well and highly recommend it.
