When I was offered the chance to review the new Cuisinart Griddler Elite, I was expecting a newer version of what I currently had, but the Griddler Elite is so much more. It has a larger grilling surface and dual zone temperature control, so you can cook two different types of foods at two different temperatures. But the Cuisinart Griddler deluxe also has dual-zone temp control, and its sear function can sear at 500 degrees f for up to two minutes at a time.
The stainless steel brushed finish Griddler deluxe and Elite is easy to use and to you do not any hassle to cleaning grinder after using. Both have enough space on their backside for drip tray removal, so you can easily wash them inside with a dishwasher. However, all parts are dishwasher safe, and inside the box, they have a scraper. So you can gently do its clean of its cooking surfaces but do not wipe them too hard. I was purchased Cuisinart Griddler deluxe and Cuisinart Elite to meet my large amount of cooking requirements.
Although the plates are dishwasher safe on the top rack, most people prefer to wash them by hand. They are scared that the dishwasher will ruin the non-stick surface, but I can not find any proof of that. One complaint was about the heating element being placed in the plates and he thought that was the reason his grilled sandwich was a little burned at those spots. Notably, it is of utmost importance to underscore that all parts of the Cuisinart grills are dishwasher safe.
There are some buyers that mention that it is easy to clean. The incompatibility of the plates stems from their varying shapes and sizes, rendering them unsuitable cuisinart soup maker for interchangeability. However, all is not lost, as there exists a feasible alternative for obtaining both models with the necessary plates.
Overall I can recommend this Cuisinart GR-300WS Griddler elite grill with its stainless steel as a good buy. Cuisinart Griddler Deluxe GR-150 and Griddler Elite GR-300WS are like two friends from the same family. These two are so much familiar with one another that you may have to break a sweat to find out any differences other than the display & timer. Differentiating these two griddles is a bit tough since there are hardly any noticeable differences except for the control panel. Though this is not the only variation between these two, their outer finish is also nonidentical. I know this is not a significant one, but yeah, this one exists.
Above all, the back sites of those drip tray removal and that body are stainless steel and Griddler deluxe colour is Brushed stainless steel, and colour is silver. With the Cuisinart GR-150, you must manually set the temperatures and check them after some time. Since it does not have any set timer feature or digital display, you have to observe the heat manually. Suppose you like to digital display with heating temperature control knobs. In that case, I highly recommend Cuisinart Griddler Elite, but you dislike digital display. You can control its heating temperature by its button and knobs.
