Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I’ve had this for almost two years, and we use it regularly. It’s far more than a crepe griddle; we use it for both cooking and re-warming tortillas, making papusas and gorditas (highest temp), grilled cheese sandwiches and quesadillas (3.5-4), crepes, baking English muffins and crumpets. On the lowest setting, with a round ceramic baking dish full of water, it’s a yogurt maker. Preheat it on low, then turn it off, and it’s great for proofing dough. The 12 inch glass Cal a phon lid fits perfectly. The cooking surface wipes off easily with a clean, damp towel. I wouldn’t use it for sausage, bacon or eggs — the outer lip is not tall enough to contain liquids, and there’s no way to easily drain grease — but if some horror of a timey-wimey-wibbly-wobbly event stranded me back in the dorms (where hot plates were forbidden, but other appliances weren’t necessarily out of the question), this and a bread maker would be my top two self-sufficiency desires. It loses half a star for not having surface temp readings, but here’s the basic range, per an instant read thermometer: 1: 250 F/ 120 C 2: 275 F/ 135 C 3: 325 F/ 162 C 4: 350 F/ 175 C 5: 375 F/ 190 C
