Gave my son one for Xmas to use in his apartment at school. He has only used it a few times (burgers and chicken thighs) and said it is very good. Here is a pic of the burgers, no pics of the chicken thighs. As you can see the picture taking of a 21 year old runs as bad as his old man's. Hahaha. I know this does not answer your question completely, but thought maybe the pic could help you visualize the outcome of a steak. Thinking a more seasoned cook could get a little better sear on the meat.
