West Bend Grill/Griddle

First let me say I eat a lot of pancakes. I mean like everyday, sometimes more than once a day. This grill is the best pancake maker I could ever imagine. Except just one thing...for pancakes you need to prop up the back 1/4" (I use a pair of bath tiles) because the grill is designed so fat will run into the rear mounted drip tray, but you don't want your cakes doing that. When propped up, the grill is flat as a pancake (pun intended) and your cakes will be perfectly round every time. The grill heats fast and the heat is uniform. No stick surface takes a few batches to get broke in, then it works good. I leave the thermostat in one position and just plug it in and out. It's super consistent that way. Overall great product. Bought at Target for a few bucks more that Amazon. No big deal...got to see the runner ups in person. Oh yeah, the surface flips over for cooking meat. Now I just hope it lasts a long time.

I purchased this grill/griddle to replace my aging 9 x 15 Teflon-coated Presto griddle.I wanted a larger size, a better nonstick surface, and more even heating.

This product performs the second and third requirements well.However the 11.25 x 18 plate size is misleading; the actual cooking surface is 10 x 16.5.I was able to cook 9 slices of bacon comfortably (perhaps 1 or 2 more crowded), but only 6 slices of French toast (same as my old Presto).

My surface thermometer indicated a temperature of 325° when the griddle was set for 300°, but this amount of inaccuracy is not unusual in griddles and skillets in this price range.

It is a nice looking grill/griddle but it does not stay hot very well. I was looking for a good griddle to replace my mother-in-laws because she loves the one she has but it is very old and starting to fall apart.The only problem is finding a griddle that will hold its temperature well.She uses it a lot to make tortillas but finding one that does the job is proving tough.
