I have bought two of these appliances, one for me and then one as a gift for my in-laws. I had to so they would not take mine. The bottom portion is great for breakfast foods like pancakes and eggs. The top portion is even better for cooking a variety of foods, including sautéing onions and vegetables and browning meats. The skillet section also doubles as a serving dish that makes it much easier to keep food warm at the table. The variable heat setting also give you great control over the cooking times. I highly recommend the skillet griddle.

I was given this skillet as a gift, and I'm glad that I didn't pay for it. While the lower half is passable as a griddle (it heats well, has a nice nonstick surface, and is stable on a countertop), its limited cooking area makes it hard to make more than a few small pancakes or a eggs at a time -not what you want in an electric griddle (otherwise, you'd use a pan, right?).As an electric skillet, it's decidedly below average. The removable skillet design slows heating, and it's often difficult to achieve simmering temperatures, even with the lid on. Forget simmering with the lid off, because you'll be waiting all day. As a result, it's a terrible braising device -it's difficult to brown the food, and hard to maintain a simmer.
I would only recommend this skillet to those who are very limited on kitchen space. Otherwise, for about the same price you can buy both a quality electric skillet, AND an electric griddle.

I was skeptical about this item at first but I am almost completely sold on it after using it for a few months. The griddle is absolutely the best!! The pan doesn't get quite hot enough even at the highest setting to do a proper job of stir fry. The clean up is very easy and a real bonus feature. The complaints about the plastic taste must come from the use of the lid. We rarely use the lid but use either the griddle or the combination unit at least once a week without the lid.Honest reviews on Best Download Hamilton Beach 38500 Step Savor Skillet/Griddle Deals
I've been using the HB Step Savor Skillet/Griddle for about 5 months now and I'm so glad I did a little research and chose this one to replace my old electric skillet and electric griddle. Why???StepSavor--heats evenly (old skillet and griddle had hot spots; had to move food around a lot)
(You should see how pretty the pancakes and grilled cheese turn out!)
--large capacity (it holds more than my old rectangle skillet; this is important with 2 grown sons and a husband to feed)
(even though it holds a lot, it takes up less space on the countertop because of the square design and sleek handles)
--great non-stick surface (still recommend using plastic or wooden utinsils; why take chances)
--rubber grips on bottom keep it from sliding on countertop (if you accidentally bump it, liquids don't slosh; not that this ever happened to me...)
--pan can go straight to table for serving (so the base has time to cool while you eat)
--cleanup is sooo easy! (The pan is lighter and a lot less bulky than old skillet and the griddle wipes clean quickly and easily)
--storage!! The best part!!!! (All the parts nest together and fit neatly into it's wire rack and are held vertically in the cabinet, which saves a great deal of space. Even the cord has it's own 'nesting' place on the bottom. All important features when you have a really small kitchen like mine)
Overall, seems well made and very well designed.

As a 64 year old man from Virginia, I have been frying chicken for a long time. I have tried this unit twice and it just does not heat up enough for good fried chicken. Used both the liquid oil and the regular Crisco without any success. The exact amount of oil was used according to the instruction manual. It was so bad that I checked the voltage on the circuit that it was plugged into, 120 volts, so that was not the problem.As a chicken fryer, it gets a 0.
