What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly praise The Smart Grill by Breville for its exceptional performance and precision cooking. Reviewers frequently note its ability to deliver perfectly cooked food, thanks to intelligent sensing technology and precise temperature control. The rapid preheating and consistent heat distribution ensure even searing across the surface, enhancing versatility for various foods. While many acknowledge its superior results, the premium price is a recurring discussion point regarding overall value. Some users also mention that cleaning the removable plates can be slightly inconvenient. Despite these minor considerations, the consensus is that this grill significantly elevates the home cooking experience for those prioritizing accuracy and convenience.
Know before you buy
The grill features sensors embedded directly into the plates that detect when cold food is placed on the surface. It automatically injects extra heat to compensate for the temperature drop, ensuring your meat sears properly rather than steaming.
Yes, the plates are interchangeable. The flat plate is ideal for breakfast items like eggs and pancakes, while the ribbed plate is designed to create authentic grill marks on meats and vegetables.
Yes, the unit features a 'BBQ Mode' that allows you to open the grill flat. This doubles your cooking surface area, making it useful for larger meals or when you want to use it like a traditional tabletop grill.
The plates feature a high-quality non-stick coating that allows food to release easily. Because the plates are removable, you can clean them individually in the sink, which is much easier than wiping down a fixed-plate grill.
Thanks to the 1800-watt embedded heating elements, the grill reaches cooking temperatures quite quickly. The high wattage is specifically designed to minimize wait times and maintain consistent heat throughout your cooking session.
While it is designed for indoor use, its portable nature and electric power source make it a great option for covered outdoor areas like balconies or patios where charcoal or gas grills might not be permitted.
