Key Details
Why It Wins
The Presto 07061 wins because it solves the basic electric griddle job without turning breakfast into a gadget decision. The open surface is wide enough for a real pancake batch, eggs beside bacon, or several grilled sandwiches at once.
The removable handles are the difference between a griddle that gets used and one that lives awkwardly on top of a cabinet. Once the handles are off, the base is much easier to store than most full-width breakfast griddles.
Cooking and Cleanup
The flat plate is best for foods that need direct contact and space: pancakes, French toast, hash browns, quesadillas, eggs, and burgers. It does not replace a ridged grill, but it is more efficient than a skillet when surface area matters.
Cleanup is straightforward because the heat control removes and the drip tray slides out. Let the plate cool, wipe grease toward the tray, and avoid abrasive pads that shorten the life of any nonstick griddle surface.
Value and Verdict
Choose the Presto 07061 if you want one electric griddle for regular family breakfasts. It has the right balance of capacity, storage, simple controls, and long-running buyer confidence.
Check the current Amazon listing before ordering because Presto sells several similar griddle shapes. Confirm the 22-inch removable-handle version if storage is part of the appeal.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent usable cooking area for the footprint
- Removable handles improve storage flexibility
- Simple controls are easy for occasional cooks
Cons
- No reversible grill plate or press function
- Large surface still needs meaningful counter space during use
Bottom Line
The Presto 07061 is the best overall electric griddle. Buy it when you want a wide, reliable breakfast surface that stores better than most full-size griddles.
