So, we got the Griddler when we got married..it works fine, plates go in the dishwasher, but after a few uses, they would not come clean..called Cuisinart, got a new one..this one is WORSE...drippings get EVERYWHERE and the plates are ok, but pieces are breaking and I cannot get the outside clean no matter what I do...I think it's time for a change in plans..can anyone recommend theirs? Interchangeable plates were nice, but I am willing to sacrifice them for a superior product...TIA!
