My family was in the market for a new grill and my friend showed me the 12 serving version of this (the rectangular one), which really impressed me. We owned George Foreman Grills in the past and I couldn’t stand them because they seemed to ruin the flavor of whatever you were cooking. This however, seemed to be the long awaited product I was waiting to see from George Foreman. Since we have a family of four and live in the northeast, we didn’t have much space to store a typical outdoor grill or to use it in the winter, so we went with this one. We liked that it was big enough for our family, useable indoors and outdoors and from what I saw worked pretty well without the pain of purchasing propane.
