One five star review read: "We first used one of these camping as we didn't have a BBQ. I immediately ordered one for our son to use in his new home. Quicker and easier than using an oven. You can set the time, so not standing over it all the time. A healthy option to cook meat and can also do toasted sandwiches on it".

A length second read: "Absolutely the best cooking device purchase I have made so far. Cooks meat perfectly. So pleased with it. Very simple to use with great instructions. We have used it every day for the last two weeks and not had any issues.

Easy to clean also as any grease just slides off with a cloth. A must have for the kitchen. Going to work out a lot Cheaper to use for cooking as we have a large cooker that takes ages to warm up so the grill is going to save us money in the long run."

While a third said: "Gone miles above my initial expectations and I’d recommend anyone to get one."
