I really like this grill, it is easy to use and cooks very much like an outdoor grill. The only complaint I have is that it said in the description of the grill that the seasoning cup in the center under the grill,that you can use wood chips to season your meat. I tried that and the wood chips just don't get hot enough to burn and smoke to give the meat the flavor of the wood. That was reason I puchased this one in the first place because it said it had a place to put seasoning and wood chips. If any one finds out a way to use wood chips in this grill successfully, I would really like to hear it.
I bought this grill because I needed an indoor alternative to by backyard BBQ..grilling is the only way I will cook steak! This grill is a good substitute for outdoor grilling and it fits on my counter top. It's surface is large enough to cook a steak and other foods (corn on the cob, bread, etc) and you can detach the top of the grill to clean it thoroughly. It also comes with a lid, so splattering is not an issue. The only down side (and it's a minor one) is that the top of the grill can come loose from the bottom fairly easily...be careful that it can't be bumped when you are using it.
I looked at indoor electric grills for a year and read tons of reviews. I wanted something big enough to cook several steaks, burgers, etc., but small enough I could keep it out on the countertop. I also wanted a glass lid to use with some foods. The main thing I wanted was enough wattage to sear meats and the DeLonghi BG35 fit the bill on all counts. I have not been disappointed and would order again.
I bought this grill as a christmas gift but, I opened it early and am glad I did. I had another countertop electric grill, and was disapointed with its performance but, I decided to try the Delonghi anyway and, I am very happy I did. Though it does not have the cooking surface the a outdoor has, it cooks like I want a grill to cook. I grilled steak on this grill, and I mean a big 18oz T-bone steak and this grill did the job. Excellent grill for those, like me, who love grilling year round.
This indoor grill is not only easy to use, but the food tastes great! Clean-up is a breeze and the price was very competitive.
