Customers are mixed about the grease. Some mention that it tastes great and removes grease, while others say that it gets in every crevice and is messy to clean.

"It's easy, works well...the bacon is crispy and non-greasy, and the bacon fat is collected and can be saved...." Read more

"...any half-decent cast iron skillet, cleanup is easier, pouring the grease out is less risky, the resulting bacon is better, and you'll have a skillet..." Read more

"...This is healthier overall.The bad:* A lot of grease is naturally strained from the bacon due to hanging vertically...." Read more

"...a bit healthier too (if bacon can be healthier) because there is no residual grease...." Read more

Customers are mixed about the quality of the countertop griddle. Some mention that it works great, produces crisp bacon, and is a fantastic product. However, others say that the bacon cooks unevenly, with the middle being done while the ends are burnt to a crisp.

Customers are dissatisfied with the durability of the countertop griddle. They mention that the teflon non-stick coating starts flaking off and peeling off in the first use. The center piece is also loosing its coating after only 4 uses. Additionally, the bacon will not cook evenly and will run off in middle of cooking.

"...The worst part is that the non-slick coating on the center piece started coming off in the firat week...." Read more

"...but after 3 uses the coating on the center removable plate shows some signs of wear with a few spots where it has chipped up...." Read more

Customers are dissatisfied with the ability to close the countertop griddle. They mention that the doors do not close completely, the side would not open or close completely and that it falls slightly making it hard to close.

They randomly pop open during cooking and that the fit comes loose and jams the door when opening.

"...I also have to drape a towel over the unit because it never closes all the way...." Read more

"...not wanting to play ball, difficult fit, coming loose and jamming the door when opening... I finally got it straightened out and am confident it is..." Read more

"...the aluminum metal plate was not attached and the side would not open or close completely." Read more

Don't Believe Everything You Read on the Internet
I'm not really sure how that other guy managed to brutalize his bacon so terribly. I can only imagine that he's also the kind of person that puts his toast in the toaster and turns it up to 11 then comes back disappointed when his toast is burned beyond recognition. Not only does it appear that this person can't correctly operate a toaster - they also don't know how to purchase high quality bacon from the grocery store.Other inadequate reviews aside, this unit is functional and adequate. It works as advertised but it does have a couple quirks. It's not perfect but I would absolutely recommend it to anyone who hates cooking bacon like I do either because grease gets everywhere, they burn themselves, the bacon cooks unevenly, they don't want to wait 30 minutes for it to cook in the oven, or all of the above.The good:* Cleanup is easier than I thought it would be. Grease didn't fly everywhere in the kitchen.* The unit disassembles easily. The unit folds apart in seconds and you can figure out how it works in a matter of minutes.* A lot of grease is naturally strained from the bacon due to hanging vertically. This is healthier overall.The bad:* A lot of grease is naturally strained from the bacon due to hanging vertically. This affects the taste of the bacon slightly.* It's really a lot more suited to cooking 4 pieces of bacon than 6.* The control dial is a little flimsy.What is not immediately obvious:* There is a heating element very similar to a toaster in the middle. This is how it operates.* It cooks both sides of the bacon but naturally the bacon comes out the best when you do two smaller cooking sessions and flip the bacon in-between each session to cook them totally evenly.* This unit is not a set-it-and-forget-it type unit like the top reviewer seems to think it is but rather much more like a toaster where supervision is recommended* The bacon comes out a bit drier than you'd expect if you normally pan cook it in its own fat like I used to do.All in all I cooked 8 pieces of bacon 4 at a time quite easily. I only cook begrudgingly from time to time so my significant other doesn't think I'm completely useless as a human being. Most of the time she is the one doing the cooking but even a software engineer such as myself can manage bacon and eggs. And with this bacon cooker it's even easier.I would recommend starting off by putting your bacon in the cooker absolutely first. The unit takes a while to heat up but only a couple minutes. You'll have bacon smell permeating your domicile in under 5 minutes. After that the bacon will cook over the next 10 to 15 minutes. And the rest is making sure the bacon isn't burned to shit. All that requires is not being an idiot and opening the vertical oven-like doors every couple of minutes to make sure they're cooking correctly. So after throwing in the bacon you can pull out your eggs, scramble the, grate some cheese, and then flip the bacon. After flipping the bacon you can throw your eggs in and cook them and voila breakfast in 15 minutes. Easy.
