I have now tried a lot and have never had any bad experiences. Beef steak, lightly salted, ready within 2-3 minutes and super tender. Any type of vegetable succeeds excellently, for example zucchini, eggplant or sweet potato sliced and lightly salted, coated to taste with a little olive oil, or hollowed mushrooms stuffed with Schäfskäse (they lose barbecuing much liquid but reliable running into the drip tray !), and asparagus or even halved romaine lettuce hearts I have thus successfully grilled. Likewise, he reliably grilling fish (also frozen), sandwiches, tofu slices and grill cheese. I would be careful with heavily marinated food, because the marinade in doubt quickly burns and stinks and bissel rausspritzt on the sides. Even if you grill several courses in succession, may be caused by the burning of residues on the plate to almost odors and smoke. However, fat mist of pans which settles greasy everywhere belongs to the past! :-)
No matter how bad the plates after look, it can be perfectly cleaned by the non-stick coating, the filth and the burned dissolve very easily. Important here is that the panels are removable, it should definitely pay attention! Since I do not clean the plates in the dish sink because so even the most advertised by the manufacturer coating is damaged in the long run, the cleaning is a little more complicated because it is best by wiping with a sponge or brush each groove again with rinse water. Despite extensive cleaning the plates smoke pretty strong at every heating, so that I had initially worried that the machine starts to burn. Especially as the smoke rises mainly left rear, where the gap of the upper plate is to drip. The first time it looked as if there are burnt by something and I wanted to pull the plug ... Then one should so be prepared eventually. It should also be located no smoke detector in the vicinity ... ;-)
Well, what is more important? The pity is that the top plate is not just down to the food, but my mushrooms are pressed from back to front through the folding particularly bigger things as precisely and thus may slip out. It helps short "stick" to leave ungreased food on the lower plate and then heated until drauzuklappen the top panel with swing or mundane when folding forward for example hold the handle of a wooden spoon as a barrier ;-)
All in all a splendid device! :-)
