Our test report

Our testers achieved the best, crispiest grilling result with this model. It also impressed with its extra-large grilling surface and easy temperature regulation. That is why the contact grill is also very often out of stock. So you shouldn't wait too long to buy it! 


What did the practical test look like?


Randomly selected testers were allowed to try out the most popular brands for a month each. In the subsequent evaluation, our test winner scored the most points in all categories. According to our testers, the food is browned particularly evenly and has a crispy, tender surface. The typical grill stripes were clearly pronounced here. 


What does the over-bake function promise?


Intended for paninis and dishes topped with cheese, the overbake function is a real highlight of the product. The cheese melts after a short time and remains particularly tender. 


How well do you have the temperature under control?


The temperature regulation was particularly easy for our testers. It is infinitely variable and can therefore be ideally adapted to the food being grilled. The advantage over heat settings is obvious: The user has more flexibility in choosing the food to grill and also the quantity. And so that nothing burns, the device is equipped with a pilot light. 


Can it only be used as a contact grill?


Not at all. The lid can be folded back, turning the model into an extended table grill. The already large grilling surface (600cm²) is then doubled to 1200cm². 


How easy is it to clean?


The testers were thrilled with the ease of cleaning. Thanks to the non-stick coating, there are no major impurities in the first place. The plates can be removed and washed in the dishwasher, which effortlessly removes any leftovers. 


Cleverly designed grill for all occasions


On stainless steel grooved on both sides, the grilled food becomes a masterpiece. Beginners and professionals alike can look forward to easy temperature control, low-fat cooking and easy cleaning with this model.
