Is that 'so good I put my name on it' ?

They've been advertising that over here (England), but I don't think anybody knows who George Forman is

I've got two or three, they work great. I carry them on the boat to the Bahamas all the time to cook everything from Tuna to burgers.

The only pain is cleaning the little buggers, have to do it while they're warm and it is messy. (I usually delegate this job)

Interesting responses...

A close friend of mine swears by his, but my dad told me that according to Consumer Reports, the grilles have had more than its share of problems...

I dunno; never dealt with one personally. I'm happy with my lil' propane barbecue

Get one they cook great burgers and chicken !! George Foreman was on Hannity & Combs last night, what a great guy. I think he is the only boxer who said he wouldn't hit someone back if they came up to him on the street and punched him first. Anyway, buy one you'll like it.

I bought a George Foreman grill for my 300E and was REALLY disappointed!

No way does it install like the OEM grill and the wiring harness that came with it doesn't fit any of the MB connectors!!

Plus I had to buy four of them in order to fit the void left by the original grill!

There are no cooling slots so my car overheats, but at least water drains our nicely!

LOL

My girlfirend has 2 and they work great. There are several version of the grill out there so be sure to get one with the features you want.
They now come in colors...


If you're not a griller then don't bother its a tedious process but some people love to grill and this is for them
Oh an shouldn't there be a cook book that comes with it?

Cooks burgers, turkeyburgers, chicken...I love it! Takes up very little space...cooks fast...and all the fatty grease drains off into the little grease pan (or onto your counter, if you don't have it in place )...We use it a lot! I don't know about the larger ones, but the small one we have doesn't have an on/off switch. You have to plug/unplug it when you use it...That kind of sucks, but I guess it makes for one less thing to break.

Mike
