Severin KG 2394: what works and what doesn't
What works well
- Low-fat grilling: non-stick plates need no oil, escaping fat runs into the drip tray
- Double-sided browning: the grill plate heating on both sides browns evenly without you having to turn the food
- Space-saving storage: the slim design can be stored upright or flat in small kitchens
- Inexpensive entry point: a solid contact grill at a very low price
Points of criticism
- Fixed plate height: without a height-adjustable hinge the lid presses thick steaks together more
- Plates not removable: the grill plates cannot be taken out, cleaning only on the appliance itself, not in the dishwasher
- No temperature control stated: the manufacturer states no adjustable temperature; the grill runs at fixed power

Build quality & everyday use
What carries the Severin KG 2394 in everyday use: low-fat grilling (non-stick plates need no oil, escaping fat runs into the drip tray) and double-sided browning (the grill plate heating on both sides browns evenly without you having to turn the food).

If you set the device up to save space, make sure it stands on a stable, level surface with some air around it. This protects the mechanics and electronics in continuous use.
