I love our Cuisinart Griddler.
I like the large surface area including the ability to flip it open into "two" grills - the bottom and the top - so that I can grill meats and veggies at the same time. I like the floating hinges that accomidate larger cuts of meat, especially steaks. This allows both sides to cook at the same time (if this is the only thing I am grilling). My older model comes with two sets of plates - one with grill slots and one flat. The other day, in Bed, Bath and Beyond, I saw another set of plates for making waffles!! I like that the plates are removable which makes them so much easier to clean too.
Just my thoughts...
