 Going to get another one......... November 25, 2008
A Whitehead (UK)
I've had this model of Health Grill around 6 years now and not had one problem or fault in this entire time. In fact, I dread to think of how much saturated fat has rolled down off the slope into the drip tray in that time!!
So impressed have I been that I'm going to get a second one and give this old one to my Dad who seems to be on the verge of being ready to leave traditional grilling and enter the world of Health Grilling. I think Mum will appreciate his enthusiasm to contribute to kitchen life with his newly acquired Health Grill........his heart also, I think!!
The simple to use timer and tempurature adjuster are in my opinion really quite helpful, even though not all models have them. Cleaning isn't a problem with a little soapy water and non-scratch scourer (or the specially designed George Foreman 'grooved' scourers available here on Amazon for 2.98). Personally, I try to clean while the surface is still a little warm - but obeviously not so I risk burning myself!!
Oh, and just to address the issue of hot fat in the drip tray, add a little water to help solidify the fat more rapidly. Then the water can soon be poured out and the tray cleaned.
All round, this is a truly excellent Health Grill.....and I would honestly recommend it to anyone.
(Btw, always be sure that you buy a size of grill which will meet your needs.)
 I love it but.... November 23, 2008

I'm about to purchase my third George Foreman Big Grill. My other 2 grills lasted about a year respectively before the electrics gave up. my kitchen can get very steamy and I'm putting the faiure down to that.I'm purchasing yet another one because it is easy to use and relatively easy to clean but most importantly because my 2 teenage sons use it to cook food which is almost healthy. The speed and ease appeals to both of them .. although the cleaning doesn't seem to have been such a big hit. If you want to encourage teenage boys to cook something that isn't a pizza this is perfect..burgers, toasties, steaks and sausages all work well in the Grill.. I even found some mushrooms cooking last time I looked....

Normally I tend to confine my reviews to items of the literary kind, but as I can't really be bothered with another book review at the moment (and because I bought this grill from Amazon recently) I thought I'd turn my critical eye on the Big George.
This is my first real experience with health grills, and overall I'd have to say I'm quite impressed. The grilling area heats up quickly and is big enough to fit plenty of burgers on, making it a handy backup if you've invited all your friends over for a BBQ but the weather isn't cooperating. The unit feels solid and durable, though the temperature control seems unusually delicate, as if it doesn't really do anything. The controls are simple and easy to use, even if the timer is rather superfluous since grilling meat is more a matter of judgement than following strict timetables.
On the downside, it's a bit of a pain to clean after use even with the scraping tool supplied, but I suppose that gripe applies to any grill of this kind.
Apart from that... well, it's a grill - what do you want me to say? If you're one of those people who delights in examining the dripping tray to see how much grease they've prevented from clogging their arteries, you'll love it. If you enjoy well cooked food that's relatively healthy, then it's pretty good for you too.

We bought this as our cooker grill is hopelessly slow cooking and a pain to clean.
For quick bacon butties, preheat for a few minutes, put your bacon in (GR30 will take 8 rashers), 9 minutes later bacon is ready. In fact, most unfrozen foods cook in around 10 mins as a rough guide.
Wipe down grill with a damp sponge/cloth while still warm so that nothing has a chance to stick.
Common sense dictates keeping it clear of kids and accident prone friends as its very hot. But then so is your hob.
Easy. A great time saver and well recommended.
A FANTASTIC BUY September 29, 2005

I have been very happy with this purchase. I was originally going to buy the juniour grill version but it was worth paying that little extra for the big george. The big grill allows you to grill 2 medium sized chicken breasts as well as vegetables and fruits all at the same time. An option you would not have with the junior version. The machine is easy to use and I was surprised to see how many items of food were appropriate for grilling. Try grilling apple slices, Delicious. And for the health concious, you can visually see the fat flowing off certain foods. The item is also fairly easy to clean. All in all a fantastic buy.
