Dose this grill have a floating hinge?

I assume that by "floating hinge" the inquiry deals with auto adjustment of spacing between top and bottom grill plates to accommodate the thickness of the steak, sandwich or other item being grilled. The answer is "yes". The grill easily provides even, auto-adjustment of the spacing.

Yes it does but it's not high enough to accommodate more than a couple inches before you get an angle when the plates are closed. No big deal unless you plan on trying a pot roast haha.

Unfortunately they do not. I thought they would, but they don't. It's kind of a pain. Otherwise, the grill is pretty good. It's one of the biggest portable ones you can buy, but it's sort of less portable because of the legs.

No, but still a great grill. We keep a glazed 16" square tile underneath for any drips. Cleans up nicely.

No, it does not, but you can simply stagger when you put certain foods on the grill in relation to one another. Works fine for me grilling meat and veggies.

There are no hinges. I have my grill on a porch so I just take the cover off and place on railing.There is a ring on the left side that you can use to hang the cover on.

I bought this for my daughter-in-law. I called her and she said that the lid is not hinged. You have to take it all the way off. However, she really loves this grill.

Yes, and it easily comes apart for easy cleanup. I can't readily think of anything about this grill that I dislike. In fact, everything I hate about electronic grills are not present on this one. This is our second one. Had the first one 8 some-odd years with fairly heavy family use. We all had a moment of silence when it have up the ghost, then I promptly went to Amazon and bought another one.

Mine did, but I didn't buy it through Amazon. I got it from a local store--but it's the same model. The grill came with a "griddle" that you can put in place of the circular center of the grill and a little tool that you use to lift up the grill/griddle. I am curious why it isn't included in the box when you buy it from amazon!

No, it does not. As I remember, my husband had a bit of a difficult time getting it to line up, but he eventually did and it's a nice grill.

Yes, it does. They fold up underneath, then come out to the sides. A great grill. We had an older one, and just had to replace it with another of the same. A fine product.

No it does not, but don't let that deter you from this purchase...the health benifits far out weigh the non ceramic grill and griddles out there!!!

Hi!! No hinge, lid comes off. My husband uses it to fry fish, it uses very little oil and clean up is so easy!! It strains the oil.

No the grill does not reach the frame from the bottom so its only held by the plastic pins. Therefore it hangs a little of from the frame beacause its to short causing an uneven look.

I haven't noticed any floating hinge. I'm not much of a Filet Mignon cooker. I have, however, made burger patties and grilled veggies on it. I have also made bacon hot dogs which fit nicely. It does not come with a spatula for cleaning, but a moist napkin will suffice.

No, it does not. It has raised ridges so that it will leave "grill marks" on the food being grilled. The bottom of the cast iron grate is grooved and the electric coils fit into the groves so the cooking surface can not be flipped.

It does not lock like another model that I looked at, so it does have rising room. I guess you would call the hinge floating. It is like the waffle iron that we had for 20+ years. I use it weekly and wouldn't have any other model.

No and the tank hanger set up is strange. I had to get a longer hose and do some adapting. Good grill if you are handy
