Just got the grill and of course tried directly. Of course, exactly as directed. Grill cleaned, dried and let heat 10 min lassen.Auskühlen. Then advance coated For grilling with a little oil and let heat up again with closed lid. Because he was smoking quite to himself. We have grilled marinated turkey on the grill and vegetables and sausages on the smooth superficy. From the result that was fine and tasty. Then a maid came (directly after cooling) and that was quite enttäuschend.Der glass lid and the drip tray no problem. The rust you get clean very bad because you hardly get in the groove and the remains of crickets are pretty persistent. The plate's better, but it looks to some small places like this, when had something burned into the coating. Since I wanted to replace our old grill (Rust &. Heating coil) to a barbecue, which is much easier to clean, to have after grilling even pleasure, I'm a bit disappointed. I need now more than ever. 3 points for the grill, because the grilling result was good and tasty. The fixing of the glass plate I like that (contrary to other opinions), as easy to handle. In addition, you can stow it well. If after the second grill maneuver the quality of the coating, however, deteriorate again, I will exchange it well.
