Does this have a grease collection tray or tunnel? if not how does the grease get collected and cleaned?

No that's the problem. The grease goes up through the grids and appears to collect on them--- ok so far because the grids must be cleaned every time the fan is used. This works well because of the ever time cleaning. IF YOU DON'T CLEAN THEM EVERY TIME THEN THE GREAS WILL BUILD UP PASSING TO THE INSIDE

I havent had a need to store with the handle down so I dont know. However, I can tell you that I am disappointed with the suction and emptying of the tray. Not as good as older model.

I think what you must be asking abut is the electric grill. Yes. It has a small grease tray that is sufficient for the cooking I do on it.

I wipe it down with simple green to remove the grease that spills on the mat. Hope this is helpful.

it can get pretty dirty after cleaning a greasy pan. I think a dishwasher is essential.

There's a guide on one corner that will funnel the grease, but no catch or drop pan.

It is very easy to remove grease. It is a disposable tin pan, they sell them in stores, it's made by Weber.

It does not have a drip rim all the way around. There is no lip at the front and a slight tilt to the griddle to allow grease drainage at the front. The grease tray is held in place by two tabs- not the most secure way. And ours has dropped and cracked. Still works though.

The unit should be cleaned after use. Moving the unit is not messy with the water and grease trays removed; however, the unit is somewhat heavy. Two people might be required to carry it down a flight of stairs without great exertion.

Out of the tub it has the feeling of grease but is like what I call a soap gel. In that form it doesn't really dry up but it also works better when you add a little water, in that form of course the water will dry so you just add a little water. To clean up we just spray with the hose and its clean No left over residue.

Have not used mine enough to have this problem. If build up includes grease, I.would clean. Otherwise,it's yourCall.

I don't remember if ours had any grease on it but as a rule I just clean everything before I use it.

I have only used this unit to extract oil and tranny fuel, as far as cleaning I just used the vacuum to clean it. What ever residue that was left in the tube I just left it. My best guess would be to used a dishsoap water solution such as Dawn. Run it thourgh a couple of times, then let it dry. By the way I love this thing.

You need to clean the plate and the bottom of the unit after each use. If you don't you risk of a grease fire.

There is a drip tray, however it doesn't catch much. Mostly ends up interior of the grill and can be cleaned with a paper towel after taking the lid off

There Is a grease container under the drain holes. At least on my stove there is.
