Cuisinart upgraded the Griddler, and it’s better than ever
By S. Harrison
I purchased a G4 Griddler from Amazon in 2005, and employed it a couple of times a week (at least) until it had to be put out to pasture in 2010 due to failure of the non-stick coating on the plates. (The coating started to bubble and peel, and no one wants that in their food…) I loved it. (See my review of the Cuisinart GR-4 Griddler Stainless-Steel 4-in-1 Grill/Griddle and Panini Press) It was still working great, but substitute plates were not available.

Great Griddle
By Byron Butters
Improvements over former model are the reversable grill plates that snap in and out very without apparent effort and now you do not have 2 extra plates to store somewhere. The grease catch pan is integrated into the bottom and removes very effortlessly for cleaning. Cleanup is a snap: take off the 2 grill plates and they wash and cleanup so easy I don’t bother putting them in the dishwasher. Clean the drip tray and you are done. Fast & easy.
I disagree with those that say it is great for cooking little meals or for a little family. It cooks the meat so fast, you better not walk away. First thing I cooked were good sized hamburgers & they were at 180° in 5 minutes. The next 4 were perfectly cooked at 4 minutes. Used the Sear setting per the instruction book with the grill preheated. New York Strip sirloins were done in 3 1/2 to 4 minutes on the Sear setting. Fast cooking & the meat is eye likeable with the grill marks on both sides. Batch number 3 will be pork chops tonight.
Granted, it doesn’t rather do the occupation my Weber grill does outside, but when it is 15 under zero, the Griddler is very nice to have for indoor winter usage.
Great indoor grill, cooks fast, easy cleanup… I highly commend it.

Cuisinart makes high quality productions & this is another one!
By MaryB
I have been looking for a quality multifunctional griddle and was ecstatic when I found this one! A lot of choices packed into this griddler and getting 40% off sealed the deal.
Pros:
-compact when closed accordingly easy to store.
-heats quickly and evenly.
-makes the best paninis I’ve ever had; crisp on the outside.
-grilling inside when the weather outside is bad is a big plus.
-can grill open or closed depending on how much I need to make and the type of food.
-the lid conforms to the thickness of the food.
-easy to clean.
-drip tray catches each bit of grease.
-because of the multiple choices it replaces various older and bulkier appliance I had.
Cons:
-can’t think of any.
