Based on the picture, I couldn't figure out how the food got its grill marks. Why doesn't the spacing &amp; length of marks match the grill patterns?

Probably because for the picture they want it to look more appetizing so they grill it on a different grill. Its just for appearance so that people would buy it.

I agree with VP...however, usually we measure a BBQ with width and depth (not length and width), so I can see why the buyer was confused.

I don't know, I didn't have very good luck with mine, but I think you put the food the way its shown in the picture.

It goes on the metal crisscross piece that hangs on the edges and sets inside of the grill. It is used in place of the grates to cook things like pizza. If you go to the Home Depot site there is a video about the grill.

That's an item that seems unique to this particular grill. If you still have the instructions, and warranty, with information that likely leads to the company that manufactures this item and has the license the sell it under the WP brand. They'd likely be you best place to contact. If you don't have it, try finding somwhere bricks and mortar that sells his stuff, look over the box for info, or search on Google. Search for any place involved with any of his enterprises, and email, call. All it takes at times is one decent person who'll track one down for you. Not a great answer, but the best I can manage. Just keep trying.

I suppose it could be considered a frying pan. Surprisingly, there are still grill marks on the food. The grill mat prevent s a lot of crud from falling on the briquets. For burgers that can cause flareups. If the burgers are fatty, there can be an accumulation of fat on the mat. I was able to "spoon" is off with a spatula into a little pot. However the burgers were the best I have made and fish on the mat was easy and also came on delicious. I have the mat covering only 1/2 the grill so that I can still toast buns and cook hot dogs, etc. By the way, veggies can easily be cooked up on the mat even if you cook the old way on the other half of the grill. Consider the mat as an option to use as you choose. I suppose it could be considered a frying pan. Surprisingly, there are still grill marks on the food.

You're correct, it comes with one griddle and one grill plate. However, the two plates make a panini just fine. The top of the panini will have the grill marks, the bottom will be brown all over. To be perfectly honest, I prefer the griddle side best.

When I owned one, I would line it with foil before inserting the charcoal. When I was finished cooking, everything was allowed to cool. The foil was removed and the coals went into a metal bucket for safety. As soon as the metal of the grill was cool enough to handle, it was taken apart, cleaned in the sink and allowed to dry. I left it outside for a few days without thinking, and it quickly rusted and succumbed to the elements. Instead of cleaning it up from there, I discarded it like a foolish person. I truly will not be without another versatile, easy to use and store barbeque. It easily cooks 4 chicken leg quarters, 4 hamburger patties or a package of sausages / hot dogs at the same time.

I have not seen any such markings in mine. I would be concerned not knowing what made the markings. You may just try to wash and scrub it then boil water for about 5 minutes or so in it.

In a circle pattern it says 'Hanselmann' at the top of the circle, 'Pottery' at the bottom of the circle and in the middle USA. The whole thing is not on the center bottom of the bowl but on an edge. I looked at other responses that are different than mine so perhaps they are not all the same.

Sorry, can't help you there. There is no stamping on the spatulas and I've already thrown out the packaging. I would think it would be identified in the full description of the item though.

I have part of an older set from my Mom ... 2007? no mark on bottom, only lines from foot inward. Also have salad/soup plates with same center designs and wavy edge - no markings.

Can't answer that. I was very disappointed in the grill. Everything turned out tough as leather (beef and pork) because all the juice and fat drains off. I packed it away.

I don't have a black area on the pan that I have so I went and looked at the photo for the item using the link to your question -- to me it looks like the reflection of something when they took the photo. I take a lot of photos of metal items myself (more specifically jewelry) so I've come across this a lot on my own photos. That said, I don't remember that being on the photo so I'd recommend asking the seller just to be on the safe side.

It's not a defect, the elements are from what I understand theyare doing there job when they are hot or red either on the bottom or top and some times nether look like they are on, but are on, this way food does not burn, when reading the book pf instructions it said the elements are working even when the do not appear to be red, I have the same thing with mine, bit it cooks just fompne

You get the grill marks like you do on most grills. I have not noticed the top or bottom being hotter then the other so I would say it cooks well on both sides. Now when you use the word "crust" you must be asking about its ability to sear... that I have not seen this grill do. The only one that I know that does a great job at this is the Breville Breville BGR820XL Smart Grill

I have scrub pads that I use on my ceramic stove that I use to clean the grill pan. You can use metal utensils on it without damaging it (on the grill). I have never had anything stick to the under pan, so clean-up is super easy. I've never seen grill marks on the meat, but, honestly, I haven't looked for them either.
