How to choose
Match surface size to your cooking
Surface size sets how much food cooks at once. The Presto gives a 22-inch surface, the Hamilton Beach gives 180 sq in across two zones, the BELLA gives a 10 by 20 inch surface, and the OVENTE gives a 16 by 10 inch plate. Compare those figures with how many items you cook at once, then weigh weight and cleanup before you buy.
Temperature control and heat settings
A temperature control holds a set heat level, while heat settings step through fixed levels. The Presto uses its Control Master control with 6 settings, the Hamilton Beach adjusts each zone up to 425 degrees, the BELLA uses a removable probe with a dial, and the OVENTE uses 5 settings from 200 to 400 degrees. Match the control style to how closely you watch the heat.
Cleanup, storage and moving the griddle
Cleanup differs across these picks. The Presto base is fully immersible once its heat control is detached, and its handles come off for storage. The Hamilton Beach plates and drip tray go in the dishwasher. The BELLA warming tray goes in the dishwasher, and its cool-touch handles help move the unit. The OVENTE probe detaches for storage. Check the drip tray, handles and probe before you buy.
