Foreman grill grease trap
The Foreman rotisserie grill does an acceptable job of preparing a tasty grilled chicken...BUT there are 3 distinct drawbacks:
1. The grill is very difficult to clean...the grease eventually leaks out the bottom onto your countertop...yuck

2. The grill only accepts birds less than 3.5 lbs....with todays mass produced birds, try finding a bird smaller than 4lbs.

3. The grill takes much too long to toast a bagel, bread etc...maybe it takes longer to heat the whole oven?

What a pleasant surprise!
I received this as a gift. I never dreamed I would love it as I do. Just load it and set the timer. When the time is up you will have perfect results every time, crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. The trick to cleaning is to line the drip tray with foil and soak the skewer parts in warm water for a few minutes and they will clean easily. I will be buying one this year to give as a gift.

Love it!
I purchased this on super sale at a local store and have used both pieces and have been very satisfied. The rotisserie cooked a five lb chicken in 1 1/2 hours as promised. I took the chicken out and had a knife in hand to serve the chicken, however I grabbed the leg and it just fell off. The whole family loved it. I did not find the clean-up to be that dreadful; simply take out the parts and throw them in a sink of soapy water. Wipe them clean 10 minutes later.

The grill has also worked well as promised. All in all, I was amazed at what I got for the money. Thanks George Foreman!

cleaning is a hassle
The price : No complaint, especially the price I paid for last Christmas (2004), 30% less than normal selling price.
The Grill : BBQ is easy and the cooking is faster, so much faster than a charcoal grill.
The Rotisserie : crispy and tasty. My husband loves to make rotisserie or roast pork, and believe it or not, it is excellent.
The cleaning : We both hate it. The cleaning is really a hassle, it is so difficult and it takes so much time, especially the rotisserie. We only used the rotisserie three times since we bought it because none of us wants to do the clean up.

Happy/Unhappy
I give this 3 stars since I have to rate both items together.
First - the grill is wonderful - perfect for 2 people and guest. We use it for our RV. The grill gets 5 Stars.
The rotisserie is not as good. I give it 1 Star. First, it's hard to clean after greese and sauces spaters on it. Second, it doesn't hold a whole chicken of average size - maybe a cornish hen. I bought it for my RV so I could have rotisserie chicken like I do at home.
