Answer 1

First, make sure you spray it lightly with cooking oil, on both sides. After you cook on it, don't unplug it (you can eat with it still plugged in, but don't leave it for too terribly long). It will clean SO much easier while it's hot. Carefully (and I can't say that strongly enough, because, you know, it's hot) use a damp, warm sponge and start at the top of the lid section. Wipe it down (not back-and-forth or in circular motions, but just along the grooves), then do the same to the bottom part, wiping towards the edge. Rinse out your sponge, or use paper towels, and wipe any areas that you've missed. You can clean it using soapy water after that, but be sure when you do that, it is NOT plugged in (to avoid electric shock).

Definately, the two most important things is to spray it before cooking, and to clean it while it's still hot.

Answer 2

Us the little plastic fork thing whilst the grill is still warm to scrape away any bits of food and grease. Then wipe over with kitchen roll. You can use a damp cloth too with washing up liquid on it but make sure the grill is cool so that you don't burn yourself, rinsing with hot water afterwards and dry with kitchen towel.

I have a foreman grill, and i seem to find that with the nonstick surface, you can just wipe it with a damp cloth with soap and water and then dry it. If the outside isnt looking as clean, you can use windex and then wipe it off with the soapy cloth. Also those Magic Erasers by mr clean are the bomb and get all kinds of grime and stuck on stuff off without much effort.

Answer 5

You need to clean it when it's still warm - just with hot soapy water and a soft cloth. If you leave it til it's cold just turn it on for a minute so it warms up again. It really is easy to keep clean if you do it like this. Happy grilling!!!xx

Answer 6

while it's still warm take a damp kitchen town put it on the grill so it covers the grill surface and close the lid for a few minutes the steam from the damp towl will help get off a lot of the grease and grime.

Answer 7

If you do not want to put a little elbow grease into it. Many stores now carry George Foreman sponges that you can use to clean the grill one side is a scrubber and the other side is a sponge they work quite well.

Answer 8

Use the soft side of a sponge that is damp with a little soap and water and scrub. Then rinse with hot water. And to geep it from getting worse use a papertowel with some oil and wipe it down "seasoning" it

Answer 9

I use mine every day and I just use a damp cloth and hot soapy water. Give it a good rub with the cloth then rinse... Its really easy to clean these grills so you shouldn't have a problem!

Answer 10

I just use washing up liquid and a non scratch scouring pad. Works wonders every time! Oh and you do need to use a bit of elbow grease but the pad will get in between the grooves fairly easily.
