The Chefman Smokeless Extra Large Grill provides a 9" x 15" cooking surface, making it helpful for preparing meals for 4 to 6 people at once. It uses a cool-drip tray design to help manage smoke production by catching fats before they reach their smoke point. The cooking plate is made of die-cast aluminum for fast heating and features a ceramic-copper composite non-stick coating.
The temperature is controlled via a simple analog dial, which reduces the complexity of the internal circuitry. While the plates are labeled as dishwasher safe, hand-washing is recommended to help maintain the non-stick properties over time. Because the heating element is a concentrated loop, users may find that foods placed toward the center sear faster than those at the extreme edges.
The housing is made of heat-resistant polypropylene, which is lightweight for easy transport to the dining table. The 2.5-foot power cord is sized to prevent tripping hazards on the countertop. To help keep the unit looking its best, wiping down the plastic shell after each use prevents grease from staining the surface.
For a smaller version that includes a lid for faster cooking and better splatter control, the Elite Gourmet 14-inch Grill is a compact alternative.
