Control
Electric grill control panel device.
— Rotary switch. Mechanical control is carried out using
rotary knobs and switches. Most parameters in such devices are set and controlled manually. At the same time, the control elements are directly connected to the working parts of the electric grill, without additional electronic circuits. This option is characterized by simplicity, reliability, and low cost; however, it is suitable only for the most basic functions, but electric grills usually do not require more.
—
Button. Button control is based on electronic circuits. Such systems are more accurate than mechanical ones (for example, the timer in such electric grills can usually be set with an accuracy of several seconds), providing more features and modes. On the other hand, such control is more complex and expensive than mechanical.
—
Touch. A type of
electronic control with touch switches. Compared to button models, it provides a high level of comfort in operation, looks more modern and aesthetically pleasing. Touch control is mainly found in top models of electric grills.
Work surface size
The size of the work surface installed in the grill — that is, the surface intended for the cooked products.
The amount of food that can be cooked directly depends on this indicator at a time. On the other hand, a large work surface requires high power, and also directly affects the overall dimensions of the grill. Therefore, when choosing according to this indicator, it is necessary to take into account the expected volumes of cooking and the amount of space available for installing the device first of all.
Note that this parameter is indicated by the length and width of the working surface, regardless of its shape. Therefore, the same dimensions — for example, 30x30 cm — can mean both a square and a round device, while the usable area in the first case will be noticeably larger than in the second. So in such cases, it will not prevent clarify the specific shape of the working surface.
