Versatile tool in my kitchen for over 8 years
I bought this griddle over 8 years ago for $39. It has been very useful with my electric stove for making many pancakes, burgers, grilled cheese, etc. I can cook 5-6 pancakes at a time, burgers & buns together, 4 grilled cheese sandwiches. Unlike the non-stick model 3560 also listed on this site, you can use this over high heat without any damage to it. Unlike the other review, I don't find it hard to clean. Over time, it retains some darkness of color (reminds me of cast iron), but it is not as heavy nor do you have the rust issues. Cleanup is easy with my blue Scotch-Brite multi-purpose scrub sponge. I'm planning on buying one for my sister and was delighted to find the same griddle available.
It's not perfect but...
it does seem like it's made to last. It has more of a cast iron feel to it than my old nonstick grill. I was looking for one that wasn't going to flake or peel and liked the idea of it being double sided. I didn't have an indoor grill before this. At first it didn't seem to work well because my pancakes stuck a little and were not browning the same way the did on the nonstick, but then I adjusted how much cooking spray I used and made sure I preheated it very well before putting the batter on and they came out better. I've only cooked hotdogs on the grill side but they came out fine. It's heavy and needs to cool down before moving to the sink for cleanup, but that's expected.
Fantastic griddle
I love this griddle. I've had it 2 months now and I use it nearly everyday for everything from breakfast to dinner. Food cooks quickly and evenly, leaving those great grill marks. It's light weight, sturdy and easy to clean. It's also beginning to take on that lovely black patina like cast iron. It's one of the best cookware purchases I've ever made.
