Great grill for my commuter pad. Apartment complex will not allow gas grills so this is the next best thing. Remember that this it isn't really a grill - it's more of an outside broiler. With that in mind, I've found that to "grill" something, let the unit get to top temperature then cook on high. Cooking at lower temps doesn't sear the entree and it dries out and can be over-cooked easily.
