Presto 07046 Tilt 'n Drain Big Griddle Cool-Touch Electric Griddle

This griddle is great, and big! I can cook six 4”-5” pancakes at a time. Some reviewers for this (and other) griddles have complained that it doesn’t evenly brown what they’re cooking. The trick to even browning is to wait until the heat has evenly dispersed throughout the entire griddle top, 15 minutes or so. Then griddles brown evenly. It’s easy to clean and the temperature settings seem to be pretty accurate.

Huge!! It’s a big griddle! Well made. Was packaged nicely. Can’t wait to use this weekend! Making Blueberry and Chocolate Chip pancakes for the grands. Should be tasty! With Ceramic surface should be a breeze to clean. Like that I can control the temperature.

I love this! I use it 1-2 times PER day. Breakfast, lunch, snacks, dinner, you name it. I've done pancakes, eggs, sausage, bacon, toast, quesadillas, burgers, chicken, and fish. Huge surface to do a lot at once. Don't get anything smaller unless you live alone (unless you meal prep and cook a lot at once). It helps a lot with having less dishes to wash. Nonstick and easy to clean. Just wipe down with paper towel. Tilts for greasy foods to collect runoff. Heats to a good enough temperature. Had my money's worth in a week. I've had it for 2 months. It is a joy to use. I will get another instantly if it ever gives out!

I first bought this model several years ago. It saw regular, rather heavy use. Although it is dishwasher safe, we couldn't fit it into our dishwasher, this may vary by model of dishwasher. But it is still very easy to hand wash, since you don't have to worry about getting the contacts wet during washing. After several years, including a move, it finally needed to be replaced. It still worked fine, but due to storage issues and carelessness, it had developed some chips and minor cracks in the legs and the outer plastic housing. It is plenty sturdy, it just had a hard life because our new kitchen had serious storage issues and we were not as careful as we should have been. So, after reading lots of different listings for various griddles, I finally decided that we had been happy enough with the old one, that it was just best to replace it with the same model. Fortunately, the product is still available, and from reading reviews it didn't seem like the quality had changed. We've been just as happy with the new one. I worked out a better storage system that won't leave it vulnerable to damage. It does have some areas that are slightly hotter than other areas, I think that this is inevitable with any electric griddle of large size. It's very minor, it does not affect the performance. The only times that I notice is when I'm intentionally looking for it, so I make some large pancakes to see for myself what's happening on that surface. Even then, the hot spots are minor, things do cook evenly, the only thing of note is that the surface of a large pancake might have some spots that are slightly less dark than other spots. I've cooked everything from sunny side up eggs, pancakes, sausages, bacon, grilled sandwiches, tortillas, and more. I've been happy with everything that I have cooked with this. The grease tray is big enough to catch all of the rendered grease from a full 1.5 lb package of bacon (thinly sliced, so this covered the entire surface of the griddle) without spilling.

The legs for the "tilt" function are sturdy... for the most part. They have no locking function to prevent a "tilt" from happening during use. I say "tilt" because it does... kind of. I've never had so much fat or oil on this that it requires even using the drain tray. All that aside it is amazing! The size of this is perfect for a house of 6. It heats quickly and has good heat distribution (of course not perfect). Wipes clean easily, as I said, not even used the drip tray yet and I have cooked bacon on it. I do NOT use metal utensils on this, I use silicone utensils. I use olive oil if needed and have not cooked higher than 375 on it. No discoloration and no chipping in the coating. Worth the buy if you need the size like I do. The "tilt" function is unnecessary entirely but not too much of a problem so far. Just worrying that over time and regular use, the legs will loosen and won't stay closed due to no locking function for the legs.

Soooooooo happy with this choice. Best hands down! Easy cooking, super spacious, easy cleaning, convenient, just all around fantastic. Don’t walk, run!!!

I had been looking for a professional electric griddle because I didn't think consumer griddles could get this good for the price. For years I used cheap black Friday specials in the $25-30 price range and they would wear out after a year or two of use. I really thought they were all the same. After starting a Keto diet, I found myself standing in the kitchen for literally an hour trying to cook a big meaty breakfast with a very used Bella electric griddle. I found that thing so frustrating that I was willing to fork out $150 for the "professional" electric griddle they sell at Williams Sonoma, but they do not ship that griddle, so I had to look for something else. I even considered a real professional high watt model that goes for over $500. I got sick of waiting for the right griddle so I just bought this one on impulse. I looked like it was pretty big so I knew that would be useful for cooking a whole package of bacon at a time. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by this griddle. Now, I've only been using it for a month, so I have no idea how durable it and it's non-stick coating are. However, right off the bat it seems like a higher quality than what I'm used to in the slightly cheaper price range. Now here's what's great about it. Heat distribution is WAY better than my previous cheap griddles. If the $150 model I was looking at on Williams Sonoma was this good I would have been satisfied. And, unlike my previous griddles, I don't have to turn it up all the way. I can throw on an entire package of bacon and be done in like 15 minutes. Eggs? Another five minutes. I've noticed a couple spots that don't get quite as hot as the rest of the top but it's miles above what I'm used to. The tilt feature is excellent too. My kitchen countertop isn't perfectly level so my bacon grease used to run to the back of my previous griddles. With this, I just engage the tilt feature and I can either make it level or I can make the grease run forward into the grease tray. Unlike my previous griddles that I considered to be disposable garbage, I want to make this one last so I'm already taking better care of it than I normally would. And honestly, if it only lasted a year, I'd buy another one because it saves me about a half hour of cooking time every morning and time is money.

Works well. Easy to clean, large enough to serve large meals.

Me encanta, la mejor compra para mi negocio. Es muy fácil de limpiar que es meramente lo que buscaba. Práctica, calienta muy bien y es enorme. No lo duden, es una muy buena inversión.

Had to replace my old griddle and am happy I did as I like this one so much better. Did a lot of research and decided to try this one. It's big enough to do a dozen decent size pancakes at a time and I love being able to sit down with the family to enjoy them instead of doing them in batches so everyone gets them hot and fresh. The tilt feature is ridiculously easy to use, just pull the handles, and great to drain off fat when doing a lot of bacon as well as making clean up easier. My old griddle had 2 elements, each a circle for really even heat so I was a bit worried about this one. No need, it did cook everything evenly contrary to some other comments and wonder if they had the temperature too high for items that cook quickly, like pancakes. I would expect it to be hotter directly above the element especially at high heat settings, but my experience so far has been very even cooking. I like this griddle very much and would highly recommend it!

Bought this to replace a similar sized grill by a different, name brand, manufacturer, so I'm familiar with these large grills. The last grill worked well for several years, but the non-stick coating eventually deteriorated into an everything-sticks coating, and it was time for a replacement. Pros: Over sized cooking surface area, Non-stick surface appears to be good quality, Tilt n Drain feature, Fairly consistent surface temperature. Cons: Expensive 1. The large cooking surface makes this our go to griddle when family/friends gather. Be aware that the large size requires additional storage space (obviously). If there is enough height available in your cupboard/shelf it can be stored on edge to reduce space requirements. 2. The non-stick surface appears to be good quality, and so far is performing as expected. Time will determine the durability. ** I seasoned the cooking surface prior to first use, and will season again occasionally. (web search for info on seasoning non-stick surfaces) 3. Tilt n Drain feature is really handy for reducing grease collection on the cooking surface. The front of the grill tips forward a few degrees when you pull out on the side handles. I have noticed the the handles will "push" out, allowing the griddle to tilt, if moderate downward pressure is applied to the griddle surface (i.e. when working with foods on the griddle) Placing the griddle on a non-slippery surface would likely help. 4. I used an infrared temperature gun to monitor the temperature of the cooking surface. It takes a good 20+ minute warm up period to allow the heat to migrate evenly throughout the large surface of this griddle. Once thoroughly warmed up the cooking surface maintains a fairly consistent temperature over the majority of the surface area. There are "cooler" spots on the far edges of the corners. 5. Once the thermostat has cycled a few times, and the griddle is adequately warmed up, the thermostat does a decent job of maintaining the temperature within about 10 degrees F of the set point. **NOTE** all temperature monitoring was done on an empty griddle surface, with no food cooking. 6. The price of this griddle is higher than some competitive offerings. The quality appears good, and so far I'm pleased with the performance.Time will determine if it was worth the extra $$.

El tamaño es mucho más grande de lo que esperaba. Calentó los pancakes súper rápido y mantuvo su temperatura durante la cocción. Recomendable

Muy bueno lo tengo en mi negocio, calienta rápido.
