Thermora OEG-A Electric Cart Grill 1500W

Overview

Thermora's OEG-A is a 1500W electric grill built into a wheeled cart, with 277 square inches of nonstick grilling surface and a built-in thermometer. It suits patio or balcony cooks who want gas-grill convenience without propane or charcoal, indoors or out.

This is an electric grill mounted on its own rolling stand rather than a tabletop unit you carry outside each time. That cart format is the trade its buyer is making: less portability than a plug-in tabletop grill, more counter-height convenience and storage. Because there is no charcoal or propane involved, it can move between an outdoor patio and an indoor tabletop setup depending on weather.

• 1500W heating element
• 277 sq in nonstick cooking grate
• Wheeled cart with foldable side tables and bottom shelf
• Built-in thermometer and push-to-start ignition

Who it's for

Fits anyone renting or living somewhere open flame and propane tanks are restricted, and who wants a grill that stays assembled on its own cart rather than being packed away. Less suited to anyone chasing charcoal or wood-fired flavor, since electric coils cook evenly but do not produce smoke.

Pros and cons

Performance notes

The 1500W element heats the 277 square inch nonstick grate directly, so there is no flare-up or flame to manage, just a knob and a warm-up period before food goes on. The built-in thermometer lets you gauge grate heat rather than guessing, and the removable grates come off for washing once the plate has cooled. Because it is electric, output is steadier than charcoal but will not reach the high sear temperatures a gas or charcoal grill can produce.
