Bought this because my apartment doesn't allow open flamed grills. Being that its an electric coil and theres no flame im able to use it. its a nice little grill. Does the job no problem. Doesn't have a temp gauge but a drill bit and a gauge off amazon fixed that. Overall well worth it. Gets up to 550 degrees no problem. Cooks food well.  Even bought the cart and cover for it. Noone would ever suspect its electric by the way it cooks. Would buy again.
