Still a classic... Sep 29, 2009
By Maria S. What did we do before George came along??
This was a replacement grill for Mom.... she burned up the cord on the old one (totally her fault) or that one would still be going! This one is VERY SMALL. Two boneless pork chops, two hamburgers if they are small, four slices of bacon, a few dogs, or maybe two pieces of fish. My hubby and I find this too small for us but perfect for one. It is good and hot unlike some of the in-between sizes that never quite heated up enough.
For one person or a dorm room (or if allowed) it's great!
Our favorite tip - after taking your food off and UNPLUGGING - soak a paper towel with water and place it inside the grill. When you finish eating, add a bit more water and clean up should be a breeze.

JUST WHAT I NEEDED Aug 18, 2009
By B. Schmidt Inexpensive, small, portable for traveling to parties (along with my
mini frydaddy deep fryer), intended for one big hamburger or steak or
2-3 chicken breasts. Heats up fast, 1 minute. Easy clean up (use
plastic spatulas, metal will scratch teflon).
When I ordered, I assumed this was a standard size and did not know
it was mini version - look at the dimensions - but I'm an individual
so this is perfect for me. When I have guests over, I can grill 5+
hamburgers separately in < 30 minutes.

Just right got the person living alone or maybe a busy couple May 09, 2010
By Stephanie Sullivan I've had a several variations on the small George Foreman grills. I have literally worn most of them out, and they last well when taken care of! I use them a LOT. They are great when making a meal in the summer. It doesn't noticably heat the room like the broiler in the oven and I think it uses much less power all year round.
I cooked steak, lamb, pork, chicken, salmon, tuna, cod, haddock, bluefish, trout, and a bunch of stuff that just isn't coming immediately to mind. It was all great. The biggest danger is over-cooking because it's so fast and cooks from both sides at once.
The tilted design is great to get rid of grease and the nice hot plates sear the surface to seal in jucices and flavor. With fish I like to use a very light coating of Mayo which seems to help make pink and white fish even more delectibly most and tasty. With steak and meats the grill works great with rubs and spices. I really like the paul prudome "magic" line of spices. Yum! Even cooking a whole trout is great, albeit I needed to slice it in two at the ribs so it all fit at once. About 6 minutes between the plates and done to yummy perfection.
If you freeze steaks, a 6 oz 3/4" thick steak frozen solid and dropped on the hot places will be done to medium in just abotu 10minutes in my experience, though I like a fridge cold steak of the same size/thickness in about 5 mintues. Timing is just about second nature now.
The non-stick surface isn't perfect, though pretty good. Be careful with forks/knives and use a plastic spatula to remove fish as it has more tendency to stick than anythig else.
Cleanup is oh so easy. While one must not put their little GF in the dishwasher or immerse it (I wish the plates were removable!) it's still pretty easy to clean. First, just after the food comes off I give it a quick hot wipe with a paper towel to get the bulk off. Just takes a second to do this. After the meal I finish the clean-up by hanging the front of the GF over the sink and using a soapy wet sponge the throroughly wash the plates and clean the catch tray. I then use the clean catch tray to rince the plates of soap, drain it and let them air dry. Water all flows into the since, it's really clean, and it all take about a minute or two.
This is a great tool. If it wasn't so great why would I keep buying them? :-) I even have a spare on the shelf in case my current 4 year old one fails. I love my GF and it's saved so much of my time while giving me great food to enjoy.

George Foreman grill user Jun 02, 2009
By C. Belew
"audiophile"
I have owned two George Foreman grills. They work really well. They do really well on hotdogs. It works better on meat that has some fat in it. It is not perfect, but it is the only product I have seen on an infomercial that does a pretty good job. If I ever need to, I would buy another. I have had two of them for 4 or more years and they still work really well.
