Best Electric Grills in 2024

★★★★★ Apt friendly. This grill is great for apartments. It is light & easy to move. Cleaning is a snap. Cooks very well.

★★★★★ Great grilling surface. The grill has ample surface. Grease drains well to the trap... Easily cleans up with a paper towel or two. Lid fits firmly without fear of falling off if the grill is bumped.

★★★★★ Great. Have had several years. Very nice, functions well, simple, looks good, convenient. Still works well with regular use for a couple years now. Definitely worth it.

★★★★☆ Good for SoCal Summer BBQ on apartment balcony. I bought this for my Southern California apartment balcony as a safe way to be able to grill out without fire or smoke issues. Our fire danger is always high lately so electric seemed safest. We don’t have much room so needed something very small, light, and portable. I received it last week and have used it a few times. It was very easy to assemble and use. (3.5/4 is best heat) Chicken breasts cook really nicely and stay tender and juicy. Brats do as well. Didn’t love the way the burgers cooked (dried out) but that could’ve been me. I will say the stand that comes with it isn’t any use to me. It’s very low - German Shepard nose height to be specific - and a bit weak. Wouldn’t be safe with kids or dogs or clumsy people on the deck at the same time. Stand Takes up a lot of space. This works just fine up on top of my bar height table on the deck though. You can serve the meat right on grill, too, which is nice for keeping it warm. The height of the domed lid and handle makes storage more awkward than needed for this lightweight slender grill. Also the screws inside the lid that hold the handle in place (you assemble screwdriver needed) are exposed so they’re not easy to clean after use. The plate itself says submersible but I won’t try that. It cleans easily (rectangle shape) in the sink with soap and water, but I find I need to also wipe it down with a paper towel after it’s dried to get residual food out of crevices completely and our hard water stains off. No need for buying long BBQ tongs or tools which is nice. Depending on size of balcony and location of outlet, it’s likely you’ll need an extension cord. You won’t confuse this with results from a wood fired grill but it’s a great solution for our specific needs and let’s us have BBQ experience (without mess and starting the next wildfire) which adds to the fun feeling of summer. I’d recommend.

★★★★★ Good value. Ease of use and cleaning when finished. This is a great size for the two of us.

★★★★★ Quality and looks. Great grill cooks evenly and best chicken I ever had

★★★☆☆ Disappointed, SMALL, NOT for 12 servings unless it's hot dogs, Inferior quality and design. Heats well and looks nice. That's the positive.That said...Grill not designed to fit snugly into stand, wobbles. NO way to secure it so it doesn't rock around when you're using it/cooking/moving food on it. Poor, bad design! Lid does not stay on well. Overall it's top heavy. Complicated to clean. Grease trap is plastic. Feet are plastic. Post is metal. Grill just sits on top of pole - kind of balancing, hence the wobbling - held in by just a groove track and metal clip but no way to tighten.Older Foreman grill much sturdier and better quality design, materials (Round one). Too much work to disassemble and box up for return. Will work OK for as often as we will use it. Would NOT purchase again, would not recommend and not at all worth the $99 price tag.

★★★★★ Very easy setup. So far only used it outdoors- but I would order it again

★★★★★ No se le pega nada, mantiene la temperatura de la parrilla. Muy fácil de limpiar ¡Excelente compra!

★★★★★ Nice BBQ ,heats up quick, easy to clean, big enought for a meal for up to four with 6 sausages and 6 steaks/or chicken breasts!Only point of complain is the wiggely stand !

★★★★★ I would like to see a removable grill plate that could be removed for cleaning.

★★★★★ todo perfecto

★★★★☆ This works fine, but not like charcoal or propane. The 22 serving one kind of fits in the sink, would be better if the base was not attached. Fast heating, easy to use.

★★★★★ Great for those of us not allowed to use propane/charcoal in our buildings. I added the below to the review page for the griddle add-on for this item and thought it might be helpful here as well...IMPORTANT UPDATE 6/15/2014I ordered a second griddle because I prefer cooking on a flat surface since it is mainly veggies and small items. The plan was to replace BOTH the grates with these griddles but the instruction booklet that came with the griddle plate was very vague. There is a picture of an electric cord, which I am assuming means for the electric model-- and next to that is a picture of a flat griddle placed on the left side of the unit. There is a picture of the flat griddle placed on the right side, but that picture has a sad face. There is no other information provided for the electric model of this grill. Unfortunately, that is what happens when you try to create one instruction manual to cover multiple items that are very similar in appearance but VERY different as far as how they actually work.Under the sad face picture, it says "Do not use two griddles side by side on your Weber GAS grill." There is no mention of the electric version but the sad face concerned me. I just called Weber and they informed me that you cannot use two griddles side by side on this unit because it may overheat since the entire top will be covered and there's no real escape for all of the heat. Just a heads up if you are considering doing this. You can only use one and it should be placed on your left when you are standing in front of the grill. I totally get the reasoning for this but other electric griddles have flat tops and there is apparently no issue there. I did not want to chance it with this one without getting verification from Weber first.Original review:I picked this up a few days ago because I had been using a small, tabletop grill and wanted to go all out. It was much more expensive than the other offerings and I thought long and hard about the Meco versus this model. In the end, I chose this one because since this type of thing uses a lot of electricity, I figured the higher price would provide a much higher build quality. I cannot compare this to the Meco since I did not get that one, but the build quality on this grill is fantastic. Everything feels so well made.It is listed here as being over 40 pounds but I find that hard to believe. I did take it out of the box and put it in my car to take home and the unit without the cooking grates is nowhere near too heavy to carry up a flight of stairs. In fact, the box with the two grill plates was much heavier than the grill and that required two hands but was very doable.Assembly was very easy and my first dinner was grilled veggies and burgers. I use a mix of carrot chips, string beans and onions marinated in teriyaki sauce and had to put them in a small, square pan so they would not fall through. They came out great for the first go. The burgers were seared and well done as we like them and we were very pleased.I did notice that the surge protector that I have this plugged into (I do not have an outlet near the window so I am forced to use one) showed a very dim light on the "Overload" button but the circuit did not trip. Unfortunately, we are renters so changing anything electric wise is not allowed. The circuit did not trip and after several days of using it, we have had no problems as far as tripping the breaker, so that is good.Today, I grilled two shell steaks, some baby potatoes and the same mix of veggies. Today's dinner did not require a small pan because I bought the "griddle" attachment for this grill. It is available here on Amazon and you substitute that griddle for one of the slotted grates. This allows you to cook on a flat surface if needed and that's a great convenience. The griddle is not smooth like the grates are and that was a little disappointing but it really expands the possibilities on this grill.Dinner was great. The steaks had nice grill marks on them, the veggies and potatoes were good. The carrots were a little too crunchy for my taste so I know for next time. I'm looking forward to using this a lot this summer.Cleaning is a bit rough. We have a small sink but the grates fit in there and I soak them in hot soapy water for about 30 minutes once they are cool enough to remove from the unit. The inner jacket comes out as well and will need to be soaked and scrubbed. It's a job, but worth it to be able to cook outdoors and not have all that cooking heat in the apartment.All in all I am extremely pleased with this grill.

★★★★★ Great grill for those who live in buildings with a balcony. I have a decent size balcony and wanted to take advantage of having a grill to cook for the spring and summer days since I am a huge cooking fan, let alone grilling. Unfortunately as others have said, I cannot have gas nor charcoal due to flames and fire hazard. I was iffy on having an electric grill as I didn't think it would produce the results and grill marks as traditional grilling provides.Spent a ton of time researching and came across this grill. First off, it's a Weber. That is a very trusted brand within the bbq community and their regular grills are known to be top notch and of great quality. Plus reading the rave reviews here on how well this performed, I took a chance and ordered this. There is more than enough surface area to cook multiple items and all areas cook evenly thanks to the quality craftsmanship. The grates also create a nice grill mark on your favorite meats and veggies making it look very attractive.Two years later, this grill is still going on strong and working great. Still cooking all my favorite items with even heat distribution across the entire surface area. Cleanup isn't to bad as I've found myself lining up the pan with foil to let the grease go straight into the drip pan. I just need to clean the grates and replace the drip pan and we are good to go for the next cooking session.Highly recommend if you are in the market for an electric grill. You will not be disappointed.

★★★★★ Easy to use. It is a great little grill. So far I’ve only grilled burgers. They were great. The grill grates are heavy but I only pick up one at a time. I’m eighty, they would probably feel light to a younger person. The quality of the grill is good. It has a liner in the box that comes out for cleaning. Which makes it easy for me.

★★★★☆ Great electric grill with limits. This is a review on the Weber Q 2400 electric grillI have used the 2400 electric q grill for a month now and have been pleased. I am a Weber fan and this is my 5th Weber grill and will compare the ones I have owned.Kettle charcoal grill - in my opinion, the best grill on the market. You can't beat the flavor from a quality stack of coals. However, this one has limitations like being in apartments or having cooking time limitations making waiting for burning coals a challenge.Q 100 and 300 series. Both cook very well and evenly. The 100 has a smaller grilling area, and the 300 is perfect size for a family. The Q series is great because the heavy grill plate distributes the heat very well through the entire cooking surface. The 300 is not as portable as the 100.The 2400 electric is excellent for what it is. It has the same heavy grilling surface as the other q modelsPros of the 2400:- Electric burners are clean and it simply can't get easier or more convenient.- It has Weber’s quality in the product.- Heats nicely and can put a nice sear on meat. I read a few people criticize the grill for lack of making a good sear – I have not noticed that as a problem.- Has a nice flavor, better than expected. Most of the grilling flavor comes from the smoke from the meat juices, and this grill, like all the other Q’s, keeps the smoke contained to flavor the meat.- Easier to clean than the 100300. It has aluminum liners that can come out of the shell that are easier to clean than the bare shell.Cons- Expensive- It doesn’t seem cook as well at low settings as the gas grills based on one experience. I like to grill salmon at a low temp and it didn’t cook quite as well as the gas grill. I think this is due to the burners turning off and on versus a very low constant flame. I think there may be a learning curve for this, as it was based on one experience.- Cooking in between the metal grates on the grill plate is not quite as crisp as the gas. It does a good job, but I think the constant adjustable gas heat cooks in between a little better.My over all opinion is if you can do charcoal, the kettle is hard to beat. If charcoal is not an option then I would suggest the Q gas grill. My family lives in a rural area where getting a propane tank filled is a bit of a pain, so we went electric. The flavor with the gas is a little better, but it is not a huge difference. You can still get the great grill flavor with the electric grill. It also did a great job on kebab with both meats and veggies. If you like Weber’s and need to go electric the good news is you can still get a great piece of meat off this grill, and I would highly recommend it this case.Addendum:Having used the grill for over a year, I can add more. First, I would get the propane first, if possible. The constant adjustable heat is superior. I do think Weber made an electric grill as good as you can get.It's electric. It's not as weather proof. Ours stopped working after 1.5 years. We lived in Kodiak, AK with alot of wind and rain. We kept it covered. Went back to the q2200 gas grill.

★★★★★ We got a Q2400 and is larger and more powerful than my previous one. Definitely easier to clean becausethe have the silver lining and they removable. Definitely a great improvement. Thank you Weber.

★★★★★ Just received & did some burgers only so far. It will take some getting used to as compared to Weber gas / propane units it’s much slower outside at this time of year. It would benefit enormously by having a built in thermometer in the hood as my gas Weber had. I purchased the bonnet protective cover & put it into service which I regret since I just discovered a full cover is available to enclose the unit & the cart. Looks excellent as a complete system !

★★★★★ Heats up nicely and is a pleasure to cook on. Temperature seems to recover quickly after lifting lid. I have done brats, burgers and beef tenderloin. All have been a success.

★★★★☆ Very easy to clean. Large cooking surface provides even cooking. Great for condo’s that don’t allow gas bbq’s on decks. Weber stands behind their products.

★★★★★ Perfect solution in places you can’t use gas or propane. Gets very hot. Easy to keep it clean.
