How to choose

Compare cooking surface size

Surface size decides how much cooks at once. The GreenPan and Blue Diamond offer 10.5 inches by 20 inches, the Presto matches that size, and the Zojirushi offers 19 inches by 12.5 inches. The SUNVIVIPRO stretches to 38 inches by 10 inches with two cooking zones. Compare the surface against the meals you cook, not the overall footprint.

Warming drawers and drip trays

A warming drawer holds finished food at serving temperature, and the GreenPan and Blue Diamond both include one. A drip tray catches grease, and the Blue Diamond, Presto and SUNVIVIPRO all include one. If you cook bacon or burgers, a drip tray matters more than a drawer; if timing matters, the drawer matters more.

Cleanup and storage

The Zojirushi plate and body guard are fully immersible, and the Presto is fully immersible with the heat control removed, which helps with stuck food. The SUNVIVIPRO folds for storage in small spaces, while the Presto low-profile design suits buffet serving.
