Product Description
Just think! No more ashes to empty or propane tanks to fill! Safe, electric heat does it all and clean up is super easy too. Use it indoors on a counter or outdoors with the pedestal base. The non-stick grill plate allows fats and grease to drip away from food, and is totally immersible for thorough cleaning. The adjustable temperature control allows you to grill of course, and to keep foods warm as well. A lid gives you the option of moist heat, and two nylon tools enable you to flip, turn, and move the food around as needed.

Amazon.com Review
Grilling really can't get much easier than this. After assembling the grill (which takes only a few minutes), simply plug it in and allow about 10 minutes to fully preheat the surface while you gather your steaks, kebabs, or whatever's to be grilled. The electric heat has an adjustable range from low (for keeping food warm) to high (for searing steaks). The nonstick grill surface not only means you can use a minimum of added fat, but it also makes cleanup a cinch. The surface has a subtle slope, with channels that draw accumulated fat or other liquids into a tray just below the surface. The high domed and vented lid helps create a circular flow of hot air to ensure even cooking--particularly important for a large roast or whole chicken.

The grill can be placed either directly on a tabletop or atop its pedestal. On its own, the grill surface stands about 6 inches high; with the pedestal, it stands about 2-1/2 feet high, not counting the domed lid. The pedestal is plenty sturdy for cooking, but the grill still seems a bit top-heavy, so pay special attention if grilling in a high-traffic area or near kids. Because of the easy electric heat, this grill can be used outdoors or indoors--when using it indoors, though, be prepared for potential spattering, steam, or other side effects of cooking. --Cynthia Nims

A wonderful indoor grill July 24, 2008
I love George Foreman grills. I have two of them. One is a flat grill with a lid on and the other is GGR50B that I am writing a review about. I purchased GGR50B January when heavy snow downed all over the city and it was my oldest's birthday. It was easy to set up and operate for a person like me who do not know much about machenical stuff. Setting up the grill was actually done within 5 minutes.

I was a little worried about the electricity bill coming the next month. However, I was so surprised to notice that the bill the month came out to be as much as it used to be. Rather a lot of saving compared to using our traditional gas oven, with which I had to pay hundreds of $$ for a few times of cooking. This grill is a great energy saver! When you set the temperature to 350 - 400, it heats up to the setting in a minute and hibernates itself unless you open up the lid too often. Our electric bill never goes over $40-$50 a month, which is a lot cheaper than using a gas oven that used to make me pay $200-250 a month. The truth is electricity is cheapter than gas!!! Now i have paid off the gas bill that was a little behind, and never need to use the gas oven again! I cook meat, pizza, fish sticks, cheese sticks, hamburgers, buns, rice( put rice in a little steal pot and put the pot on the grill ), picnic pork shoulder, and anything I could imagine is possible with this George Foreman GGR50B grill.

Cons: Too bad the lower body is made of plastic. If it was made of steal and was compatible with charchoal use, this grill would be the best grill ever.

Does not heat up July 2, 2008
This grill does not heat up enough for steak.
You can fix grilled vegetables, hamburgers, meatballs, chicken thighs or salmon just fine as those will taste great with lower temperatures and longer cooking time.
I have wasted more than $100 worth steak on this on several occasions, hoping that the grill will live up to the expectations this time. You just end up boiling the meat in its own juice, and the most tender cut eventually gets inedible.
I had the same experience when I bought the removable plate next grilleration after my old george foreman. Maybe there's some safety issue, but in any case, -repeat- this grill is not fit for steak, FYI.

Three words say it all: Made in China June 25, 2008

The heating element stopped working within 6 months of purchase.
The unit also continually tripped an indoor breaker. Maybe I can
use it as an outdoor planter, although the condo board would
surely disapprove.

Disappointed George Forman Indoor/Outdoor Grill June 18, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful

this grill was a disappointment. The actual cooking top is 17" although from the description it appears to be 22". Our original Forman grill was 22". This grill is less sturdy.Generally the quality is not as good.

I took this on an RV vacation and found it handy. It worked well without the mess of charcoal & the need for a tank. If you have electricity available this is a good grill.
