    I had one (a little lean mean grilling machine) but it is now relegated to back of the cupboard as my worktop has no room for gadgets these days. Did like it though, does lovely bacon. easy to wipe clean and used to put all the drained off fat into my Fat Trap for the birdies. I just use the grill now though the one on my oven - you would save £50 if you used your grill too!! lol

  • its far easier to clean than a grill !!
    we use ours all the time. when you see the amount of fat that comes off your bacon and sausages, yet they still taste gorgeous you will be hooooked !!!!

    ours is permanently set up and used about 5 times a week. Much easier to clean that a conventional one and probably safer - great for doing grilled vegetables on, large flat mushrooms tomatoes and peppers - taste fantastic. Get mini chicken fillets coat them in a seasoning and whack on for a few minutes - yummy

    Try spring onions with your mushrooms tomatoes and peppers......yum!!!! I like the GF grill, I use it more than any of my other gadgets!!!
  • I also got one recently and love it, use it to grill chicken and salmon, takes minutes and is really tasty, v.easy to clean/look after
  • Someone bought us one for our wedding last July. We didn't think we'd use it but we use it all the time! We've just got a small one but its big enough to cook for 2. Its healthier and cleaner than using the oven and I've cooked bacon, steak, pork steaks, lamb chops, all kinds of veg, oh and it does lovely toasted sandwiches too!:j

    Not looked which model you seen but we have the one with flat plate one side and grill the other.
    You can cook full cooked breakfast on it in one go and virtually leave it to do.
    Best thing we bought in ages.
  • thanks peeps :cool:
