Product Description
We've redesigned the iconic Griddler five with sleek, contemporary styling while keeping the widely-praised performance unchanged. In addition to the well-known and loved functions, including its 5-in-1 cooking options, the GR-5B has an LCD display, user-friendly digital controls, a sear function and more. The floating cover and reversible plates are easily removable, transforming the Griddler five from grill to griddle, making it an indispensable partner in the kitchen. The arms are made of die-cast aluminum and will become hot during use. Do not touch them during or immediately following cooking. The cover is made of stainless steel and will become very hot and should not be touched during or immediately following cooking. Never use metal utensils, as they will scratch the nonstick plates.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
The only issue that I have is that the cooking plates do not always lock in place, so I make a point of looking to see if the plates are secure within the retaining clips. You press a button to release the plates for cleaning and sometimes the plates do not snap in place at the clips when the plates reinstalled. You may have to press the release button and install the plates to make sure the plates are securely in place.
Here is the review ranking basis that I have adopted:
⭐️1 star - I don't recommend it at all, poor quality.
⭐️⭐️ 2 stars - I don't recommend it, it has multiple faults.
⭐️⭐️⭐️ 3 stars - It's passable, It has some faults but the quality is ok for what it is.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4 stars - Product quite acceptable, it does what it promises.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 stars - Product that I totally recommend.
This Griddler is easy to set up and use. Instructions are simple. No matter the heat setting, the unit maintains the chosen temperature well enough to do the job. Grilling burgers and pressing patty melts took some time but worked well and didn’t create a mess. After the grill plates cooled down I wiped off most of the leftover grease and charred bits with a paper towel before removing the plates to soak in soapy water. There was no need to use the hard edged grill cleaning tool that came with the Griddler. After soaking, a soapy sponge took care of the softened residue and a simple rinse made the grill plates look new again. I did wipe the grease from the slide out plastic drip tray and popped that into the top rack of my dishwasher which worked perfectly to restore it to grease free cleanliness without any warping.
My Cuisinart Griddler Five arrived extremely well packaged to protect it from the inevitable tossing about during the shipping and delivery process. I am glad to report that Cuisinart no longer applies sticky labels to any part of this beautiful appliance. The outer stainless steel surface wipes clean with a damp cloth, leaving it free of fingerprints. After unpacking my new appliance I simply washed and dried the grill plates, tested the heating coils to make sure they worked and then started pouring my first batch of crumpets within an hour. I use 4” (extra large) stainless steel rings to make my crumpets because they are a perfect size to also make English muffins and double as hamburger bun rings in my regular oven, too. As shown in my attached review photos, eight of these big rings fit comfortably on the two griddle plates when the appliance is in the fully open flat position. Using this Griddler has been much easier than cooking with any of my skillets on the stove. I have yet so see any damage to the nonstick surface of the griddle plates that are advertised as being non-toxic. And unlike many skillets, the plates do not warp when they are heated.
I like the simple to use controls for heating this appliance and have not found any problems with them. The digital display and the timer work well, too. While it would be nice to be able to control each side of the griddle separately, I know the unit would have cost much more to manufacture to supply such a feature. Before choosing this particular model I found that high quality appliances with single side capability cost at least twice as much.
I chose the Cuisinart brand because I have generally gotten very good service from other types of Cuisinart appliances over the last four decades. While a couple of other brands of small appliances have been just as reliable for me, Cuisinart seemed a safe bet regardless of where its products might have been manufactured. The Cuisinart design team is still one of the best.
Even using it several times a week I hope to get years of good service from my Cuisinart Electric Griddler Five. If a problem does come up I will update this review to reflect that. For now, I can only recommend this high quality appliance as a great value that is serving my needs very well. Thank you, Cuisinart, for a job well done! 🙂

After the grill plates cooled down I wiped off most of the leftover grease and charred bits with a paper towel before removing the plates to soak in soapy water. There was no need to use the hard edged grill cleaning tool that came with the Griddler. After soaking, a soapy sponge took care of the softened residue and a simple rinse made the grill plates look new again. I did wipe the grease from the slide out plastic drip tray and popped that into the top rack of my dishwasher which worked perfectly to restore it to grease free cleanliness without any warping.
My Cuisinart Griddler Five arrived extremely well packaged to protect it from the inevitable tossing about during the shipping and delivery process. I am glad to report that Cuisinart no longer applies sticky labels to any part of this beautiful appliance. The outer stainless steel surface wipes clean with a damp cloth, leaving it free of fingerprints. After unpacking my new appliance I simply washed and dried the grill plates, tested the heating coils to make sure they worked and then started pouring my first batch of crumpets within an hour. I use 4” (extra large) stainless steel rings to make my crumpets because they are a perfect size to also make English muffins and double as hamburger bun rings in my regular oven, too. As shown in my attached review photos, eight of these big rings fit comfortably on the two griddle plates when the appliance is in the fully open flat position. Using this Griddler has been much easier than cooking with any of my skillets on the stove. I have yet so see any damage to the nonstick surface of the griddle plates that are advertised as being non-toxic. And unlike many skillets, the plates do not warp when they are heated.
I like the simple to use controls for heating this appliance and have not found any problems with them. The digital display and the timer work well, too. While it would be nice to be able to control each side of the griddle separately, I know the unit would have cost much more to manufacture to supply such a feature. Before choosing this particular model I found that high quality appliances with single side capability cost at least twice as much.
I chose the Cuisinart brand because I have generally gotten very good service from other types of Cuisinart appliances over the last four decades. While a couple of other brands of small appliances have been just as reliable for me, Cuisinart seemed a safe bet regardless of where its products might have been manufactured. The Cuisinart design team is still one of the best.
Even using it several times a week I hope to get years of good service from my Cuisinart Electric Griddler Five. If a problem does come up I will update this review to reflect that. For now, I can only recommend this high quality appliance as a great value that is serving my needs very well. Thank you, Cuisinart, for a job well done! 🙂

You will not be disappointed, trust me....and neither will those around your kitchen table.
