The Tefal OptiGrill 2in1 GC7728 kitchen grill is a contact grill for preparing meat, vegetables and other dishes at home. The 2in1 design allows it to be used as a closed contact grill or as an open grill surface, so you can adapt the cooking method to the dish.

Key product features

⚖️ Compare features with other products of your choice

When used closed, the food is cooked between the two plates, while when open, the plates are spread out and available as two grilling surfaces. The 2,100 W power allows the grill to heat up for cooking, and nine programs offer preset modes for different types of food.

The non-stick surface of the plates makes it easy to remove food after grilling. Since the plates are dishwasher safe, they can be cleaned separately from the grill housing after use.

The capacity is stated to prepare meals for up to four people, so the grill is also intended for communal cooking at home. The combination of contact and open mode allows for both grilling between the plates and cooking on an open surface.

It is important to know

When choosing, pay attention to how much control you expect over baking. The number of programs alone does not indicate whether you can also adjust the temperature manually, and the “2-in-1” label does not explain which modes of use it includes.

• If you want to adjust the temperature depending on the type of food, check before purchasing whether the product allows manual adjustment.
• If you are interested in baking with an open grill, check if "2in1" on this model also means opening the plates to the open baking position.

In practice

🥪 Hot sandwiches and paninis

🟢 Very suitable - the contact grill is also intended for preparing warm sandwiches and paninis, so it is suitable if you want to prepare these in addition to other dishes.

🍽️ Preparing a meal for several people

🟢 Very suitable - the stated capacity for four people is useful when preparing a meal for a smaller household, but it does not mean that you will be able to cook different foods at the same time with separate settings.

🧼 Cleaning after use

🟢 Very suitable – the plates are dishwasher safe, which makes cleaning after baking easier; this information does not say anything about cleaning other parts of the appliance.
