Manufacturer's Description
In 1996 the first George Foreman Lean Mean Fat Reducing Machine was launched and has gone on to sell over 100 million grills worldwide. It's phenomenal success is down to its patented fat reducing design, ease of use, versatility and speed. By grilling from both the bottom and top simultaneously, food cooks up to three times faster, plus unwanted fat and grease is channelled away into drip trays provided, for a much tastier and healthier bite.

The George Foreman 14053 Family grill with sloped grill design and cooks up to 5 portions.

George Foreman Grill
We had this for a Christmas present and have made much use of it since then. It is quicker and easier than a conventional grill and, best of all, no turning required! The grill just needs to be brushed with oil or butter and any surplus fat will drip into the tray provided, so it is much healthier than frying. There is a recipe book provided, which includes guidelines for many types of food. It will cook fish fillets in 3-4 minutes and will do toasted sandwiches in a couple of minutes - very welcome in this cold weather! It's also great for steaks, hamburgers, chicken, kebabs and many more favourites. I recommend it.

Kitchen essential !
Always difficult to judge size and suitability using manufacturers data but, we found this grill to be the perfect size for us. But, to call it a 5 portion grill could be mis-leading. Toasted sandwiches are the best ever. The grill will comfortably accept two double slice toasties at once. Unlike normal taosted sandwich makers, you don't need to squash the hell out of the sandwich in order to crimp the contents and lock the unit. As a grill for steaks etc., I found that I was overcooking to start with. The meat is cooking from both sides halving the time plus, you don't get a dark finish to the meat as with pan frying.
Toasties 5 mins. Steaks 2-3mins.
Over all, this is my first grill/toasty and I wouldn't be without one now. A must for students and families alike. 5*

Adequate
I just replaced my original George Foreman which is still going strong but the non-stick has finally given up the ghost after 8 years loyal service. This was to be the replacement, it works, it heats up, but the light fell out the first time I lifted the top up and the general build quality certainly is not what it used to be. I'll be lucky if this one lasts a year. If there is a next time for me and a George Foreman I would certainly view it first, and check out the other makes before I purchased it. Gone are the days of his name alone selling a product to me.
