and it's great, best forman out i would say. Size-wise , you could fit 16 rashers of bacon on easily (i have).

A bit more expensive but you get what you pay for.

I dont understand the point of these. People say they are a healthier way of cooking because the fat drips out of the meat. Well you can only cook grilling quality meat in them and the fat runs out the meat when you gas grill also. When i grill steak on my gas grill on high i can brown it and keep it rare in the middle. However on a GF grill it gets cooked in the middle before its singed on the outside so its less tasty. The other problem is that it has a thermostat to stop you overheating it. When you fill it with cold meat it instantly chills and it has to reheat again so it cooks slowly whilst regaining temperature just like a deep fat fryer which cools as soon as you drop the chips. With a gas grill the heat stays constant. I personally think the GF grill is just a gimmick.
