PowerXL love it
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.PowerXL Smokeless Grill does not come with a griddle in the box. It is free griddle when redeem online and pay for shipping. I cook salmon and it does the work drain the oil to the bottom drip pan. Healthy and convenient less time in the kitchen. Good for meal preps. There is no smoke when cooking. First use there is a small odor because is brand new and goes away. Easy to clean. There is a small difference taste test between a charbroil grill and a powerxl. The powerxl is aesthetics grill marks, less oil.

Money well spent
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this thing. Gives your food the sear marks. Cooks out most of the grease which drops into the tray and locks in the flavor. Easy to use. Just plug in, power, add water to the tray, turn on fan, then set the temperature. Money well spent. Decided to buy my parents one. They love it too.

Indoor griller that works
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We’ve been looking for an electric grill for indoors since we don’t grill as much outside as we used to and would be nice to have something for indoor use. I found this new PowerXl unit and decided to give it a try. Unboxing: The grill is nicely packed and well protected, and inside there was the grill, grill plate, glass lid, power cord manual and cookbook. What was surprising is the griddle plate that is advertised to be with the grill is not in the box!!!, There’s a card stating that you can get the griddle plate free just pay $15.99 shipping, that’s not right because the listing shows the griddle plate is included so I’m knocking one star because of this. Setting up: The first thing we did was take the grill plate, drip shield and lid and gave them a good washing, then wiped down all the internal parts with a damp cloth. I took the unit outside to do the pre heating as I’ve found almost all appliances give off odor “stink” on the first heating and yep this one did it too. During that initial break in I took some thermal images and it shows the griddle plate was pretty uniform temperature wise and it got plenty hot. Use: The instructions show to put 2 cups of water in the bottom drip tray “which we did”, turn on the power then the fan and set your temp. I set it at 450F for the initial heat up and searing, and surprisingly it only took a few minutes, “under 6” to get up to full temp. We tried a couple items “strip steak and polish sausage”, and they cooked very evenly and fast. I was actually surprised at how fast they cooked up as I’ve had a couple indoor grills in the past and those took a lot longer to cook on compared to using an outdoor grill. The claim to eliminating smoke was spot on, there was virtually no smoke and you could see any smoke that was coming off being pulled back to the vents at the rear of the grill plate, and nothing else came out other than the smell of cooking meat. Conclusion: We were both impressed with how well this new PowerXL grill works, it heats up fast, cooks very evenly and comparable in speed to our outdoor grill. The outside of the unit stayed relatively cool during cooking and we never worried about getting burned if we bumped it. Cleanup was pretty simple too and all I had to do was put the grill plate and lid in the dish washer “came out perfectly clean” and then hand washed the drip tray. Also had to clean up the water drawer as it had some drippings in it, but it was easy enough to clean. The rest of the surface we just wiped down with a damp rag. Our only complaint was that the unit is advertised with having the griddle plate included “it’s not” and they want you to pay $15.99 to get it. I don’t get why they just didn’t include that in the box. We did end up ordering it but the website shows it will be 4-6 weeks for delivery, that’s a long time to wait. This would have been a 5 star review if not for that issue.

Easy to use and easy to clean
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Power XL Smokeless Grill is an indoor grill that fits on your countertop. It allows you to grill indoors without making your entire house smell like your food. It sets up quickly and is easy to clean. The grill was well packaged but was easy to unpack and reassemble. It was also quick to get started after unpacking and washing the grill. I chose to hand wash the grill the first time so I could grill lunch and not wait on the dishwasher cycle to complete, so I was unpacked and grilling hamburgers within 10 minutes. The Power XL Smokeless Grill is easy to operate. Fill the water tray, plug the grill in, set the temperature and turn on the fan. The instructions recommend leaving the fan on while cooking. I wanted to make hamburgers on the grill and the instructions indicated to preheat the grill for 4-5 minutes. The burgers grilled up evenly in 8-10 minutes and had the look of a burger made on an outdoor grill. The burgers tasted just like they were made on an outdoor grill. The drip tray gathered the excess oil/grease, and it was easy to clean. There were no smoke or food odors from the grill whatsoever. Cleanup was just as easy as assembly. There are 4 parts to wash – grill tray, glass lid, drip tray and water tray. All 4 pieces can be placed in the dishwasher or washed by hand. I chose to wash the 4 pieces by hand in case I wanted to re-use the grill for dinner and to see how easily the hamburger would come off the grill tray. The grill tray surprisingly was easy to clean by hand and the food did not stick. The other parts were just as easy to clean and air dry. I like that all 4 pieces can be placed in the dishwasher if you don’t have time or room to hand wash them in the sink. The smokeless grill we received did not come with the griddle tray but there was an offer to get one for free with the paid cost of shipping and handling. I think the griddle tray would be a nice addition so you could make pancakes or eggs and not have to own a separate griddle appliance. The Power XL Smokeless Grill looks very nice in black and stainless steel. The glass lid is sleek and makes it easy to see the food you’re cooking. The cooking surface has plenty of room to fix enough food for the whole family. I was able to get 4 oversized burgers on the grill tray easily and there was room for more. Online it shows a cooking dimension of 13.5" X 8". The cooking temperature ranges from 200 to 450 degrees and goes up in increments of 50 degrees. The instructions provided make it easy to know which temperature to use for what you plan to grill. I would recommend the Power XL Smokeless Grill to add to the small appliances in your kitchen as opposed to other indoor grills. I have another popular indoor grill, and while it grills well, it does emit more odors from the cooked food and is harder to clean. I like the fact during cold or rainy weather I can grill indoors. Setup and cleanup of the Power XL Smokeless Grill is much easier than using and cleaning my outdoor grill. All the parts fit nicely in the grill so it will be easy to store in the kitchen. I’m excited to try other foods on the Power XL Smokeless Grill and plan to request the griddle tray.

It's Big But I Like This Thing
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This grill takes up some space but at least I can put a lot on it. It's a great indoor grill. I thought I just liked it, but I actually love it. It gets the job done. It comes with all you need. assembly is simply placing the pieces in their correct order and connecting the power cord. It has a power button, fan button and a temperature control from 250 to 450 degrees in 50 degree increments... just push the +/-. I grilled ribeye steaks, burgers, veggies, hot dogs. Ribeyes - they came out well, literally and literally. I wanted them medium but the edges were still red. I think this is because the edges flapped up (you know how meat does sometimes). So it was too well done, but the grill did it's job... with grill marks. Burgers - they came out right. Medium-ish. They were good Veggies - carrots, squash and onions... all came out great. However some of the middle-placed slices took longer to grill and even get grill marks. Hot dogs - yeah, I think I can stick to the oven for these. It seemed to take long for no reason to look the way I wanted them to look, so... they were fine though. I included some pics (the sweet potato and drink were not grilled). Overall, the Power XL did a good job grilling. I loved it. It IS indeed smokeless. Don't forget to add the two cups of water in the water drawer (I don't know what it is called) on the bottom. I forgot during one of the grillings, but remembered just after I placed all the food on it, so I added it immediately. Also you can change the temperature before and during your grilling. Cleanup: fairly easy I guess. I wipe down the grill plate soon after with a wet napkin (yes, while it is still hot) for easy washing once it cools. There is a drip pan under (it goes inside the grill first) to collect all the drippings. I had to soak it in a bit of water after grilling steak and burgers because red meats leave a lot of drippings and they were not going to loosen with a wipe, however, the water did not have to sit in it long; it softened up quickly, so it was all good. Everything cleaned fairly easy. I hand washed. As others stated, no griddle plate included. But I was not going to pay $16 for it so...... Still, I love the grill. Great grill. I recommend it if you want something like this. Peace.

Smokeless Indoor Grill to the rescue
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I want to begin this review by saying my wife and I love using the Power XL Smokeless Grill with a built-in fan, and as such, we highly recommend this one to friends and family. This indoor grill indeed is almost entirely smoke-free and does not set off smoke detector alarms as my previous one did. Finally, a grill we can use indoors and enjoy steaks all year-round. It even handles nicely 2-inch thick steaks, you know the ones you buy from Costco. Grill each side for 10 minutes at 450F (which is the maximum temperature) and you'll get a medium-cooked steak. For 1-inch thick steaks, do 5 minutes each side at 450F. Add or deduct minutes according to your preference, of course. The grill is very easy to assemble, disassemble, and operate. It heats up quite quickly and keeps constant temperature as visually shown on the grill’s control panel. Make sure you always run the fan when you use the grill. Not only does it suck away smoke (especially useful when you open the glass lid) but it also prevents grease built-up. After use, the various parts are pretty easy to clean. Some of them like the grill plate are even dishwasher-safe. But, of course, before you start disassembling the grill for cleaning, make sure the grill has cooled down. We can’t wait to receive the “free” griddle via mail through the manufacturer but their website mentioned it may take up to 6 weeks to arrive. Unfortunately, they charge a hefty $15.99 shipping and handling fee, which could have been so easily avoided had they simply included it with the grill. Nevertheless, the grill deserves 5 stars, and as mentioned at the beginning of our review, we would highly recommend this grill to friends and family.

Good Indoor Grill!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The first thing I liked about the Power XL smokeless grill was the size of it. I cooked 4 good sized Rib Eye steaks on it at the same time. After washing the grill and turning it on it heated up to the set temperature of 450 degrees very quickly. The two steaks in the middle got seared nicely while the outside two were slower to cook. I ended up having to rotate the outside two to the inside. While this is a minor issue I would like to have seen the heating element evenly dispersed the full length of the grill. The smokeless feature definitely works well and it did cook the steaks very quick. I love the design of this product other than the heating element being a little small. Once I had cooked our steaks and we had enjoyed our meal I found that the Power XL Smokeless grill was very easy to disassemble and wash. Another thing I noticed is that the grill seems to have the best non-stick coating I have seen which made it very easy to clean off with just a long-handled scrub brush. I like that it has plenty of room to cook for the whole family and next I am going to cook some shishkabobs. I think it will do great with those and I also plan on trying some of the recipes that come in the cookbook. I am also thinking about bringing this thing to work at a construction site so I do not have to eat sandwiches every day. I would definitely recommend it especially now that I see it is on sale. It is a worthy addition to your kitchen arsenal that sets itself apart with its diverse capabilities large capacity and ease of use it sets itself apart from all of our other kitchen equipment!

No "real" grill? No problem!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm always skeptical of new cooking devices, particularly when it comes to some products with certain terms in their name, like "smokeless grill" for example. A "smokeless grill"? Really? Is this something that can actually do the job of a real grill for some burgers, ribs, steak, porkchops, vegetables, and everything else that one can cook on a grill? The answer is actually, "Yes. And it really is smokeless." I've tried out this product already with multiple things, including turkey burgers, and they were some of the best burgers I've made in a long time. Sure, part of that is the preparation of the food, but the other part is definitely having a good way to cook the food. Not once was there any smoke to be detected or noticed. However, it did take me a little bit to set up the grill, clean it, and prepare it for use, but it got the job done perfectly. It took time, but it wasn't difficult or challenging. The product itself is also pretty straightforward to use, though it is somewhat large and sturdy. That's to be expected, of course, so I make sure to use this on a pretty spacious area. I'd also suggest this to make sure adequate enough ventilation is available when cooking. It also just makes it easier to maneuver around food being cooked. The only "cons" about this product are the actually small grill space, which is to be expected, and the clean-up afterwards. An outdoor grill may require less effort and definitely less disassembling and re-assembling, but for those who live in a home that doesn't allow for outdoor grills for whatever reason, this is a great alternative. I'm looking forward to using this product during the upcoming winter when it gets a little too chilly outside at night, or when the weather is uncooperative. Nice job, PowerXL!

Great indoor smokeless grill!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have been looking for an indoor grill and got Power XL Smokeless Indoor Grill. It came with Smokeless Grill, Non-Stick Cross Hatch Grill Plate, Non-Stick Griddle Plate, Stainless Tempered Glass Lid, and PowerXL Smokeless Grill Recipe Book. It is very easy to assemble. As recommended in the manual, we did wash the grill plate with soap before the first use. The instructions were very clear in the guide. We tried grilled chicken on this grill. I have filled 2 cups of water in the tray and powered on the grill. I set the grill at 300°F and turned the chicken every 10 mins to make sure that it cooked all the sides evenly. Due to the large cooking surface, we were able to put close to 10 chickens at once. The grilled chicken came out well and the taste was really good. The Cerami Tech nonstick surface is really nice as nothing sticks to the surface. This grill can heat up to 450°F and with the glass lid, it is easy to see the inside food while cooking. With Airflow technology and smoke-capture fan, this smokeless grill removes hot, smoky air and return clean filtered air. It is very easy to clean all the accessories. We did handwash for the first two use and after that, we started using the dishwasher as all parts are dishwasher safe. The design of the grill is great and it did not occupy much space in the kitchen. We have used this grill more than 3 times within a week and impressed with the outcome of the grilled chickens and steaks. We have ordered the free griddle after paying 15.99$ for shipping which should have been included in the grill itself. We really impressed with the quality and outcome of this indoor grill.

Grilling Made Too Easy
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Young people today are spoiled. This grill is pretty great. You can use it anywhere that has real socket. You could make burgers while taking a shower (in the same room). The smokeless grill works throw simple water to fan technology. Putting about 2 cups of water in the tray below and letting the onboard fan catch and destroy anything resembling vapor and pushed it into the pond. All while evenly cooking your meal. Yes. Meal. You can do more than grill meats. There's a really handy cookbook in the box that will give you great meal ideas and basically walk you through the whole cooking process. It's great for apartments and dorm rooms or just plain out wherever you want to use it. The clean up is almost effortless. Depending on what you have in your kitchen, this may get in the way. But as I said in the beginning. Cooking has gotten too easy. There's no excuse to not have a great meal with kitchen tech like this so readily available. It's really great to have, but the price may take it out range(see what I did there?) Bottom line. It's the holidays at the time of me writing this. It would be a sweet gift for a loved one. If you've got $120 laying around, there's not much of a reason to not get one.

All Weather Grilling Alternative
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm totally impressed with the PowerXL Smokeless Grill! While out camping this pass weekend the weather was terrible and I wasn't able to grill steak that I had for this trip outside. After reading the instructions thoroughly and then preparing the grill. I put on a potato for baking, some onions for grilling before adding the steak. Giving the potato and onions ample time to grill, I then add the steak. In a matter of minutes I had a beautiful delicious ribeye steak. The entire process was flawless and easy. The clean up was super simple and was done in short amount of time. I can easily store this compact grill in my RV and can't wait to use it more often. I have already and will continue to recommend the PowerXL every chance I get.

Good grill, but griddle plate not included in box.
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.One of the big selling points for me was this smokeless grill was advertised to also have a griddle plate included. That's a great feature for breakfast foods around my house. Sadly, this does not come with the griddle plate in the box. It has a slip inside directing you to a website to send off for the griddle plate and you pay shipping. Going to the website, the griddle plate shipping is $15.99 and it shows a 4-6 week delay in shipping time. This is a big disappointment and listing the griddle plate as "what's included" is misleading. As for the indoor grille itself, it's a bit bulky to leave on your counter, so we had to find a place to store it when not using it. It does work pretty well and seems to cook evenly. This works really nice for kabobs and grilled veggies. So it's a very solid grill, but the lack of the griddle plate in the box results in lost stars.

Lives it to its claim!
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great item! I purchased it because of its claim that there would be no smoke and that was the truth! It's large enough to grill what you need and does a good job of duplicating the grilling process. I'm especially pleased with how easy it is to to clean it after use. My only complaint is the digital readout. It's not very clear, indicating the temperature setting and it onlys sets in increments of 30 degrees, instead of 15 (unless I'm missing something). Other than that, I'm very happy with my purchase so far. I've made steak, hotdogs, chicken breasts, wings and legs. Looking forward to making brats, fish and corn on the cob.

Love it, it is awesome
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love it, it is easy to clean and easy to assemble and take apart. It is great for cooking indoor patties and hot dogs. It does what it says it does which it is smokeless. One thing I didn't like is that i feel like it cooks longer to cook patties or ribs on there. But it still gets the job done. The fan is a bit loud when turn on but when not cooking if you turn off the power button, there is a small noise that sounds a bit annoying. I thought I turn it completely off but I had to unplug the cord to make sure if it was really off. Overall it was on sale. I would recommend for a sale. It is awesome and does a great job grilling without the smoke.

Smokeless
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've waited at least two years to make the jump and purchase this grill. I absolutely love it. I live on a small studio apartment moved from a house wjth deck and backbyard. Grilling was my jam. I missed it so much. I've made, chicken, steaks, hotdogs, burgers, ribs, and many grilled vegetables. All absolutely delicious and the most important part. Completely smoke free! Clean up is simple and non stick grill plates are truly none stick. Even after many many uses. I break this out for summer get-togethers and holidays. Fantastic job putting this product together. Yes. I highly recommend.

This made my life easier.
