"I love this grill! The color is beautiful and it was very easy to set up. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a grill like this. Minimal smoke level and the food tasted fantastic!"

"This grill has been a great replacement for my gas grill. I feel safer using it since I don’t need propane anymore. The cooking surface is a nice size, and it's easy to clean."

"I’m not one to leave negative reviews, but I had issues with this grill. It didn't reach the advertised temperature and stopped working after a few months. When I called for help, they wanted to charge me for parts. It eventually caught fire, and I wouldn't recommend it."

"I found the assembly to be very easy. As an 80-year-old woman with a disabled husband, we really enjoy having the option to BBQ occasionally. This grill heats up quickly and cooks food perfectly, giving us that BBQ feel!"

"After moving into a condo, I was skeptical about electric grills, but I’m now a believer! The filet was perfect, and I’ve also cooked burgers and sausages. Cleanup is super easy!"

"We had a propane grill but wanted something manageable. This grill is perfect! Plug it in, and it heats up in minutes. The food cooks deliciously, and cleanup is a breeze!"

"With a decent-sized balcony, I wanted to utilize a grill for spring and summer cooking. After extensive research, I chose this Weber electric grill despite my initial hesitations about electric grilling. I was pleasantly surprised by its quality craftsmanship and the beautiful grill marks it produced on meats and veggies. Two years later, it's still performing exceptionally well, providing even heat distribution and easy cleanup - I just line the drip pan with foil. I highly recommend this grill to anyone considering an electric option!"

"After our old gas grill met an unfortunate fate in the pool, we decided to try this electric grill based on various reviews. Assembly was a breeze, and it gets incredibly hot, cooking food juicier and more flavorful than our previous grill. It's portable, so we can easily move it from the garage to the patio, and the cleanup is a lot simpler now. Living at the beach, we've had many grills rust out, but I believe this one will last longer. I definitely recommend going electric!"

"I opted for the Q2400 over the smaller model because I needed something larger for family gatherings. The quality of this grill is outstanding, and it has been a great investment for me. I've used it multiple times a week, cooking a variety of foods, and it maintains a steady temperature very well. Cleaning is easy, and I appreciate the attention to detail in its design. I couldn't be happier with my purchase."

"I've found this grill to be great for hot dogs and small defrosted burger patties. The cooking area is high quality, but the plastic stand isn't my favorite. It's perfect for quick grilling on my porch."

"I was surprised to be the first reviewer who didn't get this for free. I must say, I experienced a lingering chemical smell even after trying to burn off the shipping oils. It doesn't get hotter than 400 degrees, so it's not ideal for thick steaks."

"This is a decent electric BBQ grill. I can easily transport it, and it cleans up well. It's been a lifesaver for indoor grilling when the weather doesn't cooperate."

"I never believed commercials, but after hearing so many positive reviews, I decided to try the Ninja OG701. I can't believe how awesome and functional this grill is! With various cook settings and quick heating, it really delivers. The smoker setting is fantastic, and cleanup is a breeze with the removable grill and grease holder. Just a heads-up, cleaning the inside of the lid can be a bit challenging, but it holds more food than I expected and cooks faster, so be mindful of the temperature!"

"I purchased the Ninja OG701 7-in-1 Outdoor Electric Grill & Smoker because my friends recommended it. Despite having multiple grills and smokers, I was curious. After grilling a ribeye steak, I was amazed at how it turned out—perfect medium rare with a warm, smoky flavor! I've also made zucchini and chicken wings, and they were all delicious and easy to prepare. Cleanup is incredibly simple compared to my other grills. I might even buy a second one because I love it so much!"

"Once I figured it out, I became addicted. It's perfect for my carnivore diet, and the air crisp feature has completely transformed my cooking—making it quick and delicious!"

"I was really impressed with how well this grill performed. I set it to smoke and cooked a 6-pound chicken that turned out to be tender and juicy. It was the best smoked chicken I've had in a long time!"

"The Ninja Woodfire Smoker Grill is fantastic! It's easy to use, cooks great food, and the cleaning process is a breeze. I love how it uses any pellets, making it super convenient for weeknight meals."

"Living in the south, I find outdoor grilling in extreme heat unbearable. This grill has been a perfect solution for me. I love the temperature control, and it’s easy to use with no smoke. I’ve grilled fish, pork chops, and veggies, and it's been a great value."

"I recently used this grill for a Korean barbecue birthday party, and it was fantastic! The round shape provided plenty of space for everyone to cook their meats and veggies at the table. It’s also been great for regular indoor grilling, and I’d highly recommend it!"

"I finally decided to try this grill, and I'm totally sold! It cooked everything well without the usual mess. The drip cup is a game changer, making cleanup incredibly simple. I love that it’s smokeless and has temperature control. Honestly, I’m so happy with my purchase!"

"I live in an apartment with a covered balcony, so propane grills are a no-go for me. I tried a cheaper George Foreman electric grill, but it left a lot of grease and didn’t provide good flavor. I decided to purchase the standard-sized grill with the stand, and while setup was relatively easy, I faced issues securing the stand. For over $100, I expected a more robust material. However, the grill itself is fantastic! It has ample cooking space and power comparable to a propane grill. Preheating takes about 15 minutes, and I achieve a beautiful sear on steaks and chicken. Cleanup is also a breeze. Overall, I'm thrilled with this purchase, spending over $600 was definitely worth it!"

"I'm really enjoying my electric grill! It heats up in about 10-15 minutes, similar to a conventional grill, but it gets incredibly hot—over 500 degrees on high! I’ve grilled pizza using a pizza stone and even smoked a whole spatchcocked chicken, which turned out perfectly flavored. The grates are simple to clean, and I appreciate that it runs on a standard 120v outlet. No propane hassle, just great cooking!"

"I had high hopes for this grill, but after a month, it only reaches around 450-500F—not enough to burn off the grates. Weber customer service did replace the temperature control unit, but the new one didn’t perform any better. It’s frustrating because I can’t return it now that it’s been used. Additionally, the plastic temperature control unit gets quite hot during use, which makes me uneasy. Overall, I’m disappointed."

"I purchased the Char-Broil Edge Electric Grill and was pleasantly surprised by its performance and convenience. Although it takes a bit longer to heat up, it's manageable. Once preheated, it cooks effectively and evenly. The size is perfect for my limited space, and the assembly was straightforward. Overall, I'm thrilled with this grill!"

"I'm really impressed with this electric grill. It has the heft and feel of a propane grill, holding a consistent temperature beautifully. I can slow cook chicken legs or sear burgers and steaks at high temperatures. The digital temperature readout is a nice touch, and I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a solid electric grill."

"I regret purchasing this grill after a year of use. While it looks pretty and fancy, the cleaning process is a complete headache. Even with the self-cleaning option, it struggles to get clean. Additionally, despite using a cover and being careful, I noticed rust stains developing. The design and size are great, but the quality of materials is disappointing."

"I absolutely love this grill! After five months of use, I’ve cooked burgers, hot dogs, fish, and more. Its construction is impressive—solid and thick grates that hold up well. Sure, it takes some time to preheat, but I never run out of fuel, which is a major plus. There’s enough heat for a great grilling experience, just be mindful that it doesn’t sear quite like propane grills. Overall, it’s an excellent purchase, especially for grilling salmon!"

"Using the Weber Q1400 for the first time was a delight! I set it up with a smoker box and hickory chips. Preheated it and cooked beef short ribs, potatoes, and corn. The results were amazing—gorgeous grill marks and perfectly cooked food! Cleanup was a breeze, too. I highly recommend this grill for anyone looking for authentic BBQ flavor without the hassle of charcoal. It's really easy to assemble and heats up quickly!"

"I received my Weber Q1400 earlier than expected! The assembly was a snap, and it preheats quickly. I live in an apartment without an outdoor outlet, so I bought a good quality extension cord. This grill does draw a bit of power, but it cooks just as well as a propane grill, creating sear marks without issue. While it's on the pricier side, the quality is unmatched. I’m thrilled to grill on my balcony with peace of mind!"
