A sensible pick if raclette for two is the actual use case and storage space matters. Anyone hosting groups will outgrow the two-pan format quickly.

Overview
Bestron's ARG150BW is a two person raclette set built around a 350 watt element, a grooved cast iron top plate measuring 20 x 10 cm, and two non-stick pans with wooden handles. The whole unit is 32 x 11 x 12 cm and weighs about 1 kg, with a 100 cm cord.
Raclette is a table format rather than a cooking method: everyone melts cheese in their own pan underneath while meat and vegetables sear on the plate above. Most raclette grills are built for six or eight and monopolize a dinner table. This one is scaled down to a pair of pans, which changes it from an occasional party appliance into something you can set up on a weeknight without clearing the whole table.
- 350 watts, 20 x 10 cm grooved cast iron plate
- Two non-stick pans with wooden handles
- Includes two wooden scrapers and two coasters
- 32 x 11 x 12 cm, roughly 1 kg, 100 cm cord
Who it's for
Aimed at couples, small apartments and anyone who wants raclette without storing a full size eight-pan grill. Two pans is the hard limit, so a household that entertains regularly should look at a larger model. The 350 watt element and the small plate also mean it is a shared-course appliance, not a way to cook a whole meal for several people.
Pros and cons
- Cast iron plate holds searing heat
- Sized for two without a large footprint
- Pans, scrapers and coasters all included
- Plate and pans rinse under the tap
- Two pans only, no room to expand
- 350 watts limits how fast it recovers
- Cast iron plate needs drying to avoid rust
Performance notes
Cast iron holds heat better than the stamped aluminum plates common at this size, so the grooved surface keeps searing when cold food goes on. The grooves and the non-stick treatment together mean meat and vegetables can go on without added oil. At 350 watts the plate takes a few minutes to come up to temperature, which is normal for the format, and the small footprint keeps the heat concentrated over the two pan slots below.

Frequently asked questions
How many people does the Bestron ARG150BW serve?
Two. The set ships with two pans and two scrapers, and the grill plate is 20 x 10 cm, which is a single shared searing area rather than individual zones.
Does the ARG150BW need oil on the grill plate?
Bestron specifies the grooved cast iron plate as non-stick and suitable for meat, vegetables, seafood or fried eggs without added oil.
Can the pans go in the dishwasher?
Bestron only states that the plate and pans clean under running water. The pans have wooden handles, which are generally better washed by hand.
