[Electronics-talk] George Forman Grill

[Debbi Williamson]

My grill has removable plates for way easy cleaning.  It also has buttons to
turn it on and off, change temperatures, and there is a set of buttons to
allow you to set a timer.  That I don't use.  But the display is nice and
large and so, if I get mixed up about which button does what, I can read the
display with my Optacon.

Well I'd have to say that the gf grills are very easy to use. I think there
are a few models with buttons but its only to set higher temps. Another
words, there are no menus or anything. Yes that includes no power switch but
unplugging it turns off the unit. Pretty simple if you ask me. Also the unit
will not start until the lid is down.
I think for a few bucks you can get the braille or electronic cookbooks from
National Braille Press. The book has recipes and cooking times for different
scenarios like fish, meats, veggies, desserts.
And alot of the stuff can be grilled when frozen.
