Which George Foreman Grill?

I wanna buy a George Foreman Grill but cant decide on which one. Are removable plates better or a gimmick? Worth buying one with a timer?

Heres 2 I have an eye on:

We have had our George Foreman grill a few years now, ours is model 13352. Cleaning the grills can be a bit of a pain, the coating is starting to come off ours now.
I think the removable plates is a must, you can take them out and leave them to soak, or put them in the Dishwasher. I wish we had one with removable plates.
Ours has a timer, it's handy to keep an eye on how long things take to cook.
If you can get one with both removable plates and timer,handy. If you had to choose, I would go for removable plates.

Definitely removable plates, and you might try posting a Wanted ad on your local Freecycle or check out eBay - it's the sort of thing that people buy, use twice and then shove in a cupboard (not that I'm suggesting you'd do that!).
