Most electric grills have removable cooking plates that can be easily cleaned either by hand or in the dishwasher. It is important to clean the grill immediately after use to prevent food residue from sticking. Use a damp cloth for the body of the device and avoid aggressive cleaners.

When choosing an electric grill, it's important to consider the wattage of the device, which affects preheat time and cooking temperature. Also, the cooking surface should be large enough for your needs and have a non-stick coating for easy cleaning. In addition, the ability to adjust the temperature provides greater control in cooking different types of food.
