Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is by far the best small appliance that I own, and I own a lot!!! I use this four or five times a week. It is really great for making eggs and bacon (use the panini plate for extra lean bacon). Always put the eggs on the bottom part as it tends to have less of a slope to it. Clean up is amazing I used to have a George Forman grill that you could not disconnect the plates and I always wondered if it was really clean enough. With this you just pop the plates off and put them in the dishwasher.

Absolutely great for panini, and am thinking it would do well on pancakes and french toast, although I haven't tried it yet, Clean up is very easy for these applications, not so easy on hamburgers because grease splatters outside the grill. I haven't tried it, but am thinking bacon might be a disaster, because of splatter. Removable grill plates a real plus. Can't comment on durability, as I haven't had it very long. We use it for panini about twice a week and really enjoy the endless variety

I purchased the grill/pannini maker as a birthday gift for my daughter, however, I also purchase one for myself. I love mine and use it daily. My daughter and her husband use theirs almost daily. It's easy to use and easy to clean. Grill burgers make pancakes or create a pannini, it does it all.

This grill is good for a lot of different items. Works well for sandwiches, steaks, chicken, fish, vegetables, and just about anything you wish to grill. However, if you do grill marinated meats with sugar, it can be a bit difficult to clean since you need to soak it overnight and use a little extra elbow grease to clean it. What's nice about the unit is that the plates are removable. Otherwise, the grill itself is a wonderful appliance to have especially if you are unable to cook outside with a regular full size grill.

Had to return the first one, DOA out of the box. The second one was a display unit and works fine, but I bought the service plan just in case. This replaced my George Foreman when the non-stick surface started to peel. The Griddler is more versatile and works like a charm. Clean up is easier than the George Foreman b/c of the removal plates, but still requires some effort and don't know how long the non-stick surface will last.

My 12yo loves to cook. I got this as an easy, safer alternative to the range. It has turned out to be a great choice. The Griddler is extremely easy to use. My daughter has no problems cooking on it. We love that the grills come off and go into the dishwasher - very easy! I gave it 4 stars based on price. I think it is a bit pricey. If 4.5 star rating was available, I would give it that rating because in spite of the price, I would definitely buy again!

We received the griddler as a Christmas gift! It is FANTASTIC!!!! We make almost everything on it!! It is VERY easy to clean...once cooled just remove the plates and put in the dishwasher!!!

This is a great indoor grill. Matter of fact I hardly ever use my outdoor grill any more. I love the speed that it cooks burgers, brats, pork chops and steaks. I even grill yellow fin tuna steaks on it and they turn out great. My only major beef with this unit is when your cooking something that is pretty greasy it splatters out the sides and front/back and when you lift the cover to the full upright position the grease on the top plate will drip onto the outside back of the grill and onto the counter top. This then makes the rubber feet on the bottom slippery and could be a hazard. One other thing I would like to see Cuisinart do is increase the size. I would be willing to pay more for a larger one.

I am so thrilled with this Griddle. I mainly use it to make pancakes, but I originally bought it to use as a Panini maker and that works great too. I love that the grills pop out so you can clean them easily. I gets hot fast and it browns the sandwiches beautifully. I also made great hamburgers on it!

This product is great! We grill Panini sandwiches, chicken, burgers, and fish and it cooks SO fast! The griddle option is wonderful for pancakes and grilled cheese sandwiches. The plates are easy to change and easy to clean in the dishwasher. This has been a wonderful addition to our kitchen.

I was looking for a Panini maker and stumbled upon this. I really didn't want to spend that much for a glorified sandwich maker but I had a little store credit and thought what the heck. I have used this to make paninis (GREAT), steak (not so great), pancakes (great), burgers (great) and several other things. I am so pleased with this appliance. It cleans up easily and stores just as easy. I wish the sides were a bit higher to catch more drippings or at least guide them to the drip tray better.

Best indoor grill,easy to use, removable plates are installed and removed easily,then go directly into the dishwasher. Everything we have grilled on it came out perfectly. We're very happy with it.

I LOVE this grill! It makes the best panini. My family now craves the grilled sandwiches I make. I have grilled veggies, fish, hamburgers and other goodies. Also love using it for pancakes. But, I will not use it for steak, too afraid. LOL VERY easy to clean. Pops right into the dishwasher.

Decided to splurge & go in for the Griddler. Great purchase. I use it .more than I use the stove now. If I can use it for anything I will. Super easy to make sandwiches, eggs, anything. Love it.

I originally purchased the step down model to use to make paninis. After using for a day or so I realized that it would not fit my needs. I exchanged it for this one and am so happy I did. Not only is it bigger but the plates can be switched and used as a griddle. I also intend to use this as an indoor grill. Perfect for marinating chicken even in the Wisconsin winter.

This was a revelation for me the first time I saw it. A griddle that folds up for easy storage with separate temperature controls for each plate. The plates are removable for easy cleanup. Overall, it's been quite an improvement over our precious griddle. However, it doesn't have nearly the amount of cooking space as your typical longer griddles. For simple meals or paninis it's unsurpassed. My only concern is when we cook bacon the fat overwhelms the little 'exits' on the plates and tends to spill a bit. There's a nifty removable grease catcher built in, but sometimes the grease escapes over the slightly raised edges on the removable plates. But my wife also notes that I am not exactly the 'neatest' of cooks. Still, I'm very pleased overall and heartily recommend it for anyone looking for amore compact griddle solution.

I was hesitant to buy this because of the price. However, when compared to other counter-grills, this seemed to be the best because of the price and changeable plates. The day after I bought it, we cooked breakfast on it and made panini sandwiches. I would definitely recommend buying this product.

This product has been an excellent addition to our kitchen. It really functions well with whatever we decide to cook on it. The instrctions for use are simple and when the temperature settings from the recipes are used for similar items it works well.

I Love, Love, Love this Grill/Griddle. It heats up fast. The griddle makes the best grilled cheese,pancakes, and sandwiches (painni). Great for cooking Steak indoors. Then it all comes apart and goes in the dishwasher. You can't ask for much more!

I was so impressed with my Quisinart Griddler, that I bought one for my brother and his wife. They were equally impressed! We use it all the time, and constantly finding new ways to cook with it. It's an awesome appliance, and I would recommend it to anyone! I couldn't be happier!
