Good Griddle
»
This is a nice griddle. It is large sized and heats evenly. It replaced my horrible Black & Decker griddle(never buy one). My only complaint is that it isn't quite flat. I cook thin Swedish pancakes and they all run toward the middle of this griddle. You can cook a lot with the big surface area, but make sure you have a large enough space to store it.

Cooks unevenly
»
Nice large size, but it cooks pancakes unevenly. The "cakes" in the center (not near the heating element) are undercooked while those directly over the element can get too brown/dark.
The cooking surface is very thin, which probably contributes to the uneven cooking. May work for bacon and other foods that are not as sensitive to browning as pancakes.

Large Griddle
»
This griddle is the perfect size for my family of six. I love the fact that you can tilt and drain the grease from bacon as you cook it. Very easy to clean and cooks food evenly. If you are looking for a larger griddle this is worth the money.

Can't be beat...

I think the whole tilt n' drain thing is kind of gimmicky, and I haven't really found a need for it. I can't imagine cooking so much bacon (or anything) on this that I'd need runoff for the grease. Or maybe I just don't cook anything that greasy.
BUT I am a huge fan of this griddle. I can see how other folks would find it heated unevenly, but I think it's all a matter of warming the surface up adequately. I usually turn the thing on before I mix the batter; after a nice long warmup, I find the surface heats as evenly as can be. My pancakes have always turned out uniformly browned.
The only thing that's kind of a drag in a good way is the size. This thing is just massive. It pretty much takes up all the space under the range hood, so not the best choice for cramped kitchens without storage space. That is, unless you grill everything you eat.

Pleased again.

This is my second Presto griddle and I have to say i will continue to purchase this brand from here on out. The model I had before had the same amount of cooking space and can handle cooking 6 slices of thick cut bacon and sausage at the same time. The Tilt and Drain option took a little getting used to, but is useful to clean the grill when you are done. Just don't forget to NOT move the griddle once you start cooking, when you pull the front legs apart the griddle tilts and the oil on the grill will pour down into the drip pan, nice for cleanup before cooking the eggs! My only problem with the griddle is it is hard to store. It is a large griddle, that is what I wanted, so I have to deal with storing it! I finally resorted to standing it on it's side in my kitchen pantry. Takes up room, but it works.
