The Hamilton Beach 25371 is a 6-serving indoor grill with 90 square inches of non-stick cooking space. It uses a 1200-watt heating system and die-cast aluminum plates optimized for thermal conductivity, helping you achieve a good sear on meats. The "floating hinge" is a mechanical cantilever system that adjusts to fit foods up to 1.5 inches thick, preventing them from being crushed during cooking.
The exterior combines brushed stainless steel with high-heat phenolic resin for the handle and base. The unit is designed with a 15-degree slope to help redirect grease into a dishwasher-safe drip tray. A helpful feature for those with limited space is the chassis design, which allows the grill to be stored upright in a cabinet or on a shelf.
Since the plates on this model are fixed, a practical cleaning tip is to use a wet paper towel to "steam clean" the surface immediately after unplugging the unit while it is still warm. This helps loosen residue without the need for aggressive scrubbing. The power lead is approximately 24 inches long, so the unit will need to stay close to a kitchen outlet.
If you prefer a model with removable plates for more thorough deep cleaning, the George Foreman 4-Serving Grill is a great alternative.
