Tools and Hardware Reviews of HB Mealmaker GrillCustomer Review: Shop for a better model from another manufacturer... Summary: 1 Stars
Although this grill is well built, it is too quickly assembled. In my case, the timer module's shaft was not nicely centered in the case through-hole. The result is that the timer sometimes doesn't work unless I rotate the timer knob slightly in order to get it going. Also, the silk screen lettering on the front of the grill gets easily dissolved by cooking grease or household cleaners such as Simple Green. A Sharpie black marker came to the rescue, allowing me to mark the face with 15, 10 and 5 minute timing marks. The most serious issue, and why you SHOULD NOT BUY THIS GRILL: The non-stick Teflon coating on the grill plates is not properly applied. The Teflon coating has very poor adhesion to the grill plates, and the Teflon on my grill (bought a year ago) started coming off only a month after I bought the grill. Hamilton Beach refused to replace the grill plates since I consider the Teflon coating process to be grossly defective, but HB happily quoted a replacement price for the grill plates which was $5 less than what I paid for the entire grill. In fact, I think that there should be a consumer recall on this product due to the Teflon coming off during normal cooking processes. I am not one to bash any product, but a company refusing to replace what clearly are defectively manufactured components was enough to push me over the edge.
In short, this grill potentially could be a very nice product for the money (even if it cost $10 more), but the lack of production quality control prevents this product from being anything other than a waste of money. Pfft...Don't even bother filling out the warranty card.
