...his Nanna caling it a George Formby grill. Now I don't know how I managed without Formby-ing my meat!
Me and my Mr were bought this grill by by best mate as a moving in present when we bought our first home last summer. Now my cooking skills aren't the best, as my now skinnier Mr is finding out. But give me one of these babies and Delia better watch out.
Okay, so I'm exaggerating slightly. But honestly, this is one of the best additions to our ... ...I would definitly recommend this grill. If like me, you work full time and are not the greatest of cooks, then it could be your lifeline. My Mr has piri piri pork, and special fried rice the other day...he was gobsmacked! And it's all thanks to my George Formby grill. ...

Food will not stick to this thing, it has a ridged cooking surface which leaves those cool lines on burgers and steaks!

Advantages: Cooks Almost Anything, and quickly!! Disadvantages: Can be hard to clean
This is one of the most essential kitchen appliances! everyone and anyone should have this! Having had one for many months now, it still works, and looks like brand new. It has made my life as a chef (joke) at home much easier, and much more enjoyable, as i can now cook the perfect steak, and russle up a bacon sandwich in about 5minutes!
When cooking, simply put the food on the girll, be it meat, veg, chips, etc. Set the timer and press start then ... ...The main advantage of this is that it is so simple to use, and such short cooking times, due to the intense high heat that the grill reaches. The design means that the fat and other fluids drain off the grill, leaving little mess. But some is left underneath the object that is cooked. This can sometimes be hard to clewan off, depending on what it is. But cleaning is easy enough, simple wipe down with a cloth and then leave to dry. The spatula and ...

Advantages: Watch all that fat just drain away! Disadvantages: Difficult to clean when cold
We have had this grill for approx two years and we think it is fabulous. It is a much better size than the smaller ones. You can cook 4 good sized chicken breasts on this. It doesn't have a bun warmer but i really don't think that this matters.
Some details below that might be useful
Double non-stick, coated cooking plates Holds six hamburgers, six chops or two small steaks Thermostat control indicator light and `Ready` light 20 minute timer Variable ... ...H15cm, W37cm, D33cm Weight: 4.3Kg With the variable temperature control you can really control what you are cooking. We especially enjoy steaks and chicken breasts as the flavour is wonderful.
The great advantage to cooking things like sausages is that you don't get fat burning under the grill or spitting from a frying pan!
What else can i say, it is amazing and makes the food healthier and taste wonderful. ...

Advantages: Easy Fast Cooking, floating hinges Disadvantages: Hard to clean when cold
I have had this grill for about 3 months now and I don't know how I have managed without one before. At first it got a bit of getting used to but now its a doddle. The timer function comes in very handy once you know how long certain foods take to cook, and the fact that it beeps to let you know time is up is invaluable. The best bit is seeing all of the fat dripping into the tray, (yuk!), which from some foods can be more than thought possible. ... ...the fat, and two specially shaped spatulas which I find very useful to help clean the grill plates whilst they are still warm. One downside to the grill is that it can make some foods seem rather dry especially beefburgers. Another advantage of the grill is that it has a floating hinge which enables you to cook foods up to about an inch and a half thick. Apart from the obvious bacon, sausage, burgers and chops, I have also cooked things like frozen ...

Advantages: easy to use, practical Disadvantages: short power cable
Ever since the George Foreman Grills came out my family and I have got throught around 5 becuase we use them almost every day but the style we have purchased twice is the 10099 GR30. This one suits us best as it has a large amount of cooking space yet is not overly expensive. It is easy to clean if you get there before the grease hardens otherwise it can be quite stubborn.
My family use the grill for everything from bacon for breakfast to chicken ... ...sized chicken breasts and around 5 medium sized burgers.
It cooks quickly and because it has grill plates top and bottm you get a nice crispy covering on things like sausage and chicken. As I can see there is only one problem with the grill and that is the power cable isnt very long so is awkward if you dont have much work space.
Overall this a conveniant, easy to use piece of equiptment and I definatly think we will continue to buy them in the ...

Advantages: CLEAN, EFFICIENT AND A HEALTHY WAY TO COOK Disadvantages: NO TIMER
I had a small George Forman and used it so much I just had to get something bigger. All my meat and chicken portions be it sausages or burgers to fillet steak goes on the Lean Mean Grilling Machine and does perfectly with all the bad fat dripping away into a tray to be disposed of. Clean whilst still warm and it comes up like new. If you forget to clean just warm it up and clean before next use. The only disadvantage this one has against my smaller ... ...so I have to use my cooking experience to gauge whether the food is cooked - but it is always perfect. Having done the Lean Mean thing I would cook no other way - the traditional grill on my oven has been made virtually redundant! One kitchen gadget you will keep on using time and again - this one will not be hidden in the cupboard!
We are soon thrilled with our Lean Mean Grilling Machine we have also bought the BBQ version. ...

Advantages: Compact, healthy and easy to use. Disadvantages: Takes the fun out of cooking.
My parents bought me the George Foreman grill before I went to university this year, in the hope that it would encourage me to eat healthier food and refrain from ordering take outs and snacking on junk food. Although I first thought I would never use it I now use it almost everyday to cook myself simple health meals in minutes. The Facts;
According to the outer packaging the grill can reduce fat content in food by up to 50%, just by the way it ... ...exterior is chrome with the George foreman logo on the top. It is pleasing to look at, however after only a few uses the chrome fades and becomes dull as well as this it tends to mark very easily. The grill digital timer is red lighting on a dark background, making it easy to see and looks good. The grill plates themselves are black with ridges at intervals to allow the fat to run down. The plates are non stick and easy to clean. The floating hinge ...

Advantages: you can cook anything in around 10 minutes Disadvantages: cleaning it
you can cook anything on this grill for a family of four at the same time. Burgers in 5 minutes, kebabs, vegetables, steaks, bacon, toasted sandwiches, anything in no time! The only thing i find you can't cook on it is sausages because they roll off into the fat tray. Now we don't want that do we? I find that the whole fat tray idea however genius because i hate fat saturated food or food that shines in the light. My main problem i have with it though ...

Advantages: small, easy to clean, good for healthy cooking. Disadvantages: not a lot of room for cooking
Its ok for a single person, not big enough to make much on it.
It would be better if the cord was detachable and if the machine came apart for a more thorough cleaning.
It does cook pretty nicely though and it does drain the fat away from the food as advertised.
The benefits are; it is small and doesnt take up space
semi- easy to clean
it does make cooking healthier
you can take it with you to use at work or wherever you want to use it (as ...
