Great Grill
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Tefal Optigrill Elite Intelligent Grill is a great appliance. I like all the pre-set functions that allow you to select the type of product you are cooking - meat (including the type), vegetables, sandwiches, etc. The size of the griddles is sufficient for a family of 4 (we usually make a couple of extra portions too) however I think cooking for 8 would be a bit of a struggle. I would say it’s for 4-6 people. The screen is very handy as it talks you through all the stages, from type selection to pre-heating, cooking times and notifying you when your food is ready. Once the thickness of the meat has been measured and the cooking time calculated, there is a countdown so you know exactly when your food will be ready. I found the cooking times to be accurate and the food to be cooked to perfection! The grill is easy to clean as the griddles and the drip tray remove easily and can go in the dishwasher. The grill came with a recipe book with some interesting recipes

Superb
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow !!! What can I say… This product is unreal I’ve never been happier with cooking my food. Everything you cook, it grills to perfection. The food tastes unreal. It’s super easy to clean also which is a massive bonus. I would recommend this to everyone I now feel like a chef and want to cook all the time using this. Another bonus of this is that you don’t need to add any fat so your food it’s a lot healthier & less calories . Can’t speak highly enough of this product !! 5 star !!!

Perfect for steak
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great looking grill, happy to leave this in full view. Quite heavy to move. The power cable could be a bit longer in my opinion. Great for cooking steak. I wouldn't go back to my old grill. Easy to clean

Innovative, quick and easy cooking
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So here’s my frank and honest review. Firstly I thought is this a bit of a foreman grill .. Oh how wrong I was. This clever bit of technology makes cooking easy. We use an air fryer lots and don’t think we’d need something like this. My sons and husband used this once and have since made sure they buy food just to cook on this. It’s clever, so easy to use and the food taste amazing because it’s cooker to perfection. My husband said he will never cook steak again any other way! We cooked burgers from frozen and they were moist and perfectly cooked to our taste. You can put 3 steaks on at the same time and cook them to different choices, it tells you when it’s blue, med/rare or well done! It heats up to the right temperature depending on what you’re cooking .. The easily removable plates makes it really easy to clean and not much even sticks to it anyway! In short a product we thought would be just ok has turned out to be fantastic!! 100 recommendations from us!

Professional grilling with no guess work
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Well, i honestly wasn't sure what to expect when i recieved this grill, however, i am very impressed! I have used health style grilling machines in the past and thought they were ok but i was always put off by all the fuss involved when it came to cleaning them and opted instead for the frying pan or oven. However, this was different! The machine itself is of professional grade, you can just tell it has been well made. The plates are detachable, which makes it effortless to clean, they can even go in the dishwasher. When you add your meat to the grill and close it you notice how the top moves into position around the meat unlike other grills that work on a stationary hinge. The best thing about it is the machine measures the meat and will work out the cooking time accordingly, there are several different modes you can use depending on what you are cooking and guides you from rare to well done. I would recommend this to anyone who want to take the guess work out of cooking.

Perfect Family Grilling
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The packaging arrived completely intact, and I was able to move from unboxing to full setup in just a few minutes. As someone who values precise data, the sensors on this are a game-changer, they nailed my chicken and lamb meals perfectly, while also being perfect for the panini's and grilled cheese toasties we have been making on this. It has actually replaced at least two other kitchen tools I used to use. Pros, foolproof indicators, help me understand how long and preventing overcooking. Very easy to clean, I wash it up after every use. And even though is dishwasher proof, is just as easy to wipe down by hand. The versatility as well. It's just a consistently great. Cons, the preheat delay, for reheating straight after is a bit of a issue, but what's to say having to wait a few extra seconds for perfection. I have used this almost daily since getting and can see it being one of my most used kitchen products of the year.

Amazing grill
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Amazing product, grill cooks food very quickly and to the level requested. The size allows me to cook for the whole family in one go. Recently used it to cook steak which came out a perfect medium as well as perfect crispy bacon. The grill has really helped with it's pre-programmed features and the thickness gauge too.

quick cooking
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I find the product very useful. First, I don't need to watch out over it and worry that my meat will burn as it has sound to remind you of the stage of cooking. It's really helpful for me as a Mom of 3 that I can attend to my kids while cooking. Less interaction in the kitchen but guaranteed meal. Second, I can cook healthy. Third, I can have a meal in less than 10 mins. All of this is very helpful when you are a stay at home Mom with kids. Additional thing that I like about this is how easy it is to clean up. From cooking to washing it's just perfect.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this grill for free from hometesterclubuk. Its my first test from tefal. Its been 2 weeks that im using this and i love this grill. Its an amazing product and very easy to use. Its big, its powerful and it takes most of the guesswork out of grilling something i really appreciate on busy weeknights.Autosmtic cooking is a game changer. You simply choose your food type and the grill detects the thickness and amount of food and adjusts time and temperature automatically. Cleaning is easier than I expected. The plates are removable and dishwasher-safe,which makes the experience much more convenient.The beeps and light indicators are helpful. Overall this Tefal Optigrill is fantastic for everyday grilling, especially if you want delicious, consistent results wothout fuss.

We recommend hand washing for best results and better longevity. In case of dishwashing always use soft detergents and load on the top of the dishwasher.
The Opti grill is designed to create great sandwiches and toasties rather than traditional cheese on toast.
