    I have been using this griddle 5 days a week for about 5 hours a day with no issues at all. For about a month now. It was easy to field convert it to lp gas . Keep in mind when looking at the dimensions when they measure from front to back of the unit they don’t include the 2 inch gas pipe sticking out the back. You’ll also add the regulator which is another inch so if your limited in space like I was you have have to buy some iron pipe elbows to divert the gas. I’m in a food trailer so my griddle table barley fit the unit . After all is said and done I love it,

    I had this one on my food truck for a while now and it often catches fire. There's no protective metal sheet between the pan and the flame tube so when your scrap foods get a little high due to busy cooking, the food catches fire. I ended up putting an end to this unit today (8/22/2023) after three incident and go with a different unit. The risk is too high vs benefits. If you constantly clearing the pan underneath the unit then you might be okay. For our purpose, we clean it by the end of each shift and if we forgot to clear the fried rice stuff out then sometimes it's too late. I'm sure it works well for other folks, but I'll have to give it 1 star for our use.

    Spend the money and get one with thermostatic controls, this gets the job done but you better have a way to read the surface temp so you can get it dialed in to your desired cooking temperature. Even once you do get it dialed in though it seems it will wander +/- 10 to 50 degrees. Otherwise great value for price.

    We have used this 24" countertop griddle for 6 months now, and I am pretty happy with it. It heats pretty quickly and cooks our quesadillas and grilled cheese perfectly. People love them! My only complaints are that the pilot light is a little hard to reach and one of my staff lost the little metal rod the first day, but some long matches get the job done. My other complaint is that it is hard to get the surface clean and shiny ever since the first use. I've tried several products, but would love a recommendation on how to make this look cleaner. I recommend this product; good price for a good product.

    I have had this flat grill for about 2 years now and it has worked perfectly. Not a leak or anything wrong with it. Got it installed in my food truck and gets right to work with all the burners getting the griddle hot in about 10 mins or less.

    We purchased this grill a few months ago! It heats well and cooks our items consistently, but it’s very very hard to clean the grill surface. We’ve tried multiple grill cleaning items but to no avail.
