How to choose
Match the surface to the meal
A 184-square-inch surface cooks eggs, pancakes and meats, while a 7-inch surface suits solo servings and personal pizzas. The bella surface cooks up to 15 eggs or 8 pancakes at once. Compare the surface size against the meals you cook most, and check whether a warming tray or a lid matters for serving.
Weight and storage in a small room
The Nostalgia MyMini weighs 1.25 lb and the SugarWhisk weighs 2.1 lb, so either moves off the counter without much effort. The Presto folds its legs in and locks the drip tray in place for cabinet storage. The SugarWhisk handle unlocks for storage. Check the folded size and the weight before buying, since both decide where the griddle lives between meals.
Temperature control and cleanup
The Presto, bella and SugarWhisk have temperature controls, with 6 settings on the Presto and the bella and 1 setting on the SugarWhisk. Match the control range to the foods you cook, and check which parts come out for cleaning.
