• INDOOR GRILLING WITH CONFIDENCE — Cook dinner without the threat of sensitive smoke alarms. Designed for vent-poor apartment kitchens, this indoor grill keeps smoke held low. Enjoy perfectly grilled meals without the lingering smoke.
• DEDICATED SMOKE-LESS MODE — Built-in technology limits smoke by preventing fat from burning on the plates. Features food-group presets for beef, poultry, fish, and pork, capping the heat exactly where each lean protein cooks cleanest for a true smoke-less contact grill experience.
• EXPERT GREASE MANAGEMENT — Grease leaves the heat before it burns. Grease-reducing plates, a fold-out front foot extension, and an added top-plate drainage position move fat off the cooking surface and directly into the drip tray.
• 6 JOBS WITH DUAL-ZONE HEAT — Functions as a smoke-less grill, contact grill, panini press, full grill, full griddle, and half-and-half. Dual-zone technology gives upper and lower plates independent temperatures from 175 to 450 degrees, plus a sear setting for ultimate versatility.
• Opens flat for double the cooking surface, enough to grill up to 8 burgers at once
