Things to consider
Its compact cooking capacity of 2 hamburgers, 1 panini or 4 waffles at a time makes it less suitable than larger specialist grills for feeding bigger groups in one batch.
Entertaining suitability
Best for small casual gatherings and brunches rather than large-group cooking
Indoor vs outdoor fit
Indoor benchtop use
Ease of cleaning score
8/10 - dishwasher-safe plates and a drip tray help reduce cleanup effort
Family size suitability
6/10 - well suited to small to medium households, but limited batch size for larger families
Portability rating
7/10 - compact enough to move around the kitchen, though primarily designed as a benchtop appliance
Key benefits
- Three pre-set programs: Panini, burger and waffle settings make it easier to get started without guessing cooking setup.
- Independent plate temperature control: Lets you fine-tune top and bottom heat for better results with different foods.
- Interchangeable plates: Swap between grill, griddle and waffle plates for more meal variety from one appliance.
- Height-adjustable levels 1 to 5: Helps accommodate thicker sandwiches, burgers and other foods more comfortably.
- Temperature range 60°C to 230°C: Gives flexibility for gentler heating through to high-heat searing.
- Dishwasher-safe plates: Simplifies cleanup after everyday cooking and weekend brunch use.
- Drip tray: Helps catch excess fat and cooking residue to keep the bench area cleaner.
- LCD display with timer and end-of-cooking alarm: Adds clearer control when managing cooking time.
Q: Can this grill open flat for BBQ-style cooking?
A: Yes. The Smeg MultiGrill can be used in BBQ mode with the plates opened out for a larger flat cooking surface. It also has contact and oven modes, so it is more flexible than a press-only sandwich grill.
Q: Is this grill large enough for family meals?
A: No. Smeg MGF01CRAU is better suited to small batches and everyday meals than large family cooking in one go. It works well for couples, smaller households and brunch use, but bigger groups will usually need multiple rounds.
Q: Can you set different temperatures for the top and bottom plates?
A: Yes. Smeg MGF01CRAU has independent plate temperature controls, with a temperature range of 60C to 230C. That helps when the top needs gentler heat than the base, especially for thicker sandwiches or mixed ingredients.
Q: Will it cook thick sandwiches without crushing the filling?
A: Yes. The adjustable height settings let the top plate sit higher when you are cooking thicker sandwiches or burgers. That gives more clearance than a fixed press, though overfilled sandwiches can still spill if packed too tightly.
Q: Does the Smeg MultiGrill include waffle plates in the box?
A: Yes. Smeg MGF01CRAU includes 2 waffle plates, a flat plate, a griddle plate, a dosing cup and a double-sided spatula. That gives you waffle-making capability straight away, without buying an extra plate set.
Q: How much bench space does the Smeg MultiGrill need?
A: Smeg MGF01CRAU measures 470mm wide, 360mm deep and 210mm high. It suits most kitchen benches, but it is still a benchtop appliance rather than a compact single-sandwich press, so leave room for opening and handling plates.
