Even better than my last Presto griddle
By T. Lee
I had the Presto 07039 22-Inch Electric Griddle for 5 years, but the nonstick surface was starting to wear off from frequent use, so I was in the market for a replacement. Having had a Presto already, I knew it did a decent job of cooking evenly, had a good nonstick surface, and was affordably priced. I was hoping to find one that would be a little easier to clean, and debated between a couple of dishwasher-safe options, but settled on the Presto 07061 22-inch Electric Griddle with Removable Handles for its removable handles. The problem with all the dishwasher-safe options is that they were big and bulky - by design since the heating element had to be separate from the cooking surface.
I am please to report that I am happy with my choice. The large 22" cooking surface has excellent nonstick properties; I prefer it over my previous Presto griddle which didn't have the same texture. I made an egg (with no oil) and the non-stick was so good that the edges of the egg actually curled up and away from the surface on their own. No sticking whatsoever.
I was a bit worried that the handles might be loose, making the griddle wiggly, but I'm happy to report that is not the case. In fact, I can't tell that they are removable handles at all when moving the griddle around. It's very solid, with nice little rubber grippies on the bottom of the legs - something my previous Presto did not have. And the handles are very simple to remove. Each of the four legs has a tight spring latch that secures the handles in place. You can easily remove the handles in seconds and store the cooking surface in the same cupboard as your pizza pans!
The shape of the cooking surface is also more convenient to clean than my last Presto. This one is flat, with an opening in the rim where the grease tray resides. You can wipe the surface straight off the edge of the griddle into the grease tray or a sink/garbage. My previous Presto just had a small hole that grease was supposed to drain through, and you had to wipe any larger pieces up and over the rim. Also, the grease tray on this model has two small catches that prevent it from sliding open too easily. My last Presto had no such mechanism, and the tray actually slid out while I was in the process of moving it and broke when it hit the floor.
Overall, I'm happy with my purchase. I'm sure there are other great griddle options out there with more bells and whistles, but this one does the job and is both affordable and convenient.

By J. Salvino
Over-all, I love this griddle for the price.
As with most listings, dimension info is weak and vague. Just in case this helps, the overall width with the legs is 24 inches but here are the actual griddle cooking area: 21.5 inches wide and 11.25 inches deep. Still, a very nice size that I can easily fit eight 4" pancakes on.
I was hesitant about the textured non-stick surface but found that it performed EXCELLENT > I even tried eggs with no oil or butter and it actually worked, although I still prefer a small amount just for a better texture and flavor. For most applications (eggs/pancakes) I use a light coating of "Spam."
The cooking surface does have some "hot" spots that I think is typical of nearly any unit in this class and price range, but my pancakes still cooked nicely.
The removable legs are designed beautifully and perform well (mount easily and snug). The surface is nearly perfectly flat but with thin batter, I can see a slight sage inward and toward the drip pan, by-design?? The unit has a very solid feel on the countertop, very flat and with rubber pads on the feet.
The design of the drip area and cup is another great feature, the cup removes easily yet won't slide out on it's own without a slight lift before pulling out.

This griddle is more than I imagined. I used it for a weekend trip to the country with some friends; I needed to make a lot of pancakes all at once. This griddle reminds me of the times when my mother used to make pancakes but now I'm a step above. This thing has a very low profile yet a large surface area. I was able to grill five (5) large pancakes all at once with the bottom two slightly offset from the top three. I didn't use any butter or oil at all, the non-stick surface looks a bit strange but it worked amazingly well and helped add a slight health factor to something so unhealthy.
We also cooked scrambled eggs and bacon on this thing and it was great too. The scrambled eggs were slightly challenging on the non-stick surface and I would suggest letting them sit on the griddle surface slightly longer than a pan; this will help lifting them off when mixing the scrambled eggs.
Just a suggestion, there are some nay say'ers who complain about uneven heating on the griddle surface. I found that there are one or two slightly cooler spots but nothing to cause much of a problem; the temperature difference didn't mess up my pancakes!
I would highly suggest this to anyone looking for a griddle. Assembly and cleaning was easy too.
P.S.
I live overseas in a 220V country and I had to use a power converter to step down the voltage. The device is rated at 12.5 amps at 120V or 1500 Watts.
