Overview
A 19 x 13 inch electric griddle with Starfrit's Rock.Tec non-stick cast aluminum surface and adjustable temperature control, built for family-size breakfast cooking like eggs, pancakes and bacon. Suited to households cooking for several people at once who want one flat surface instead of rotating pans.
The non-stick surface draws consistent praise, but a recurring complaint is uneven heat across the plate, which matters more on a griddle this large than it would on a smaller model. There are also separate reports of physical failures, a cracked support leg and a malfunctioning power plug, that point to build-quality inconsistency rather than a one-off. Worth weighing the large cooking area against that reliability spread before buying.

- Cast aluminum grill plate
- Removable temperature controller
- Cool-touch handle design
Who it's for
Suits anyone cooking breakfast for a full family and wanting an easy-clean, one-surface setup instead of multiple pans. Less suited to anyone who has already been burned by uneven electric griddle heating or who fries large batches of bacon needing a deep grease catch.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Reviewers consistently praise how easily the Rock.Tec surface cleans and releases food, several calling cleanup a snap. The complaints cluster around two issues: uneven heating across the larger plate compared to Starfrit's smaller griddle, and durability, with one buyer's support leg cracking twice and another's power plug failing after limited use.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Large 19x13 inch surface cooks for a full family
- Rock.Tec non-stick coating cleans up easily
- Adjustable temperature dial
- Uneven heating reported across the larger plate
- Grease tray is shallow for a full pound of bacon
- Multiple reports of cracked legs or plug failures
Performance notes
The 1500W element heats the cast aluminum plate, with a removable dial letting you set a target temperature rather than a fixed on/off cycle. Several reviewers who previously owned Starfrit's smaller 12x12 griddle found the larger 19x13 surface harder to heat evenly, with the edges lagging the center. The grease catch tray sits below the cooking surface but multiple reviewers describe it as shallow for a full pound of bacon.
