10 Indoor Grills That'll Seriously Elevate Your Summer Cooking Game

Chefman Electric Smokeless Indoor Grill ($40, originally $50)

For an indoor kitchen grill that'll help you cook up flavorful meals without setting off your smoke alarm, you can't go wrong with this affordable model from Amazon. With more than 2,000 five-star ratings, this is one of the best indoor smokeless grills because it offers varied temperature settings that adjust based on the surrounding heat zone. The inside grill is also completely programmable, so users can cook multiple foods at the same time and tweak the product's intensity as needed. A couple of reviewers noted that the model doesn't get quite as hot as other indoor grills, which is worth noting if you're someone who likes your meats well-done and cooked quickly.

George Foreman 4-Serving Removable Plate Grill ($36)

Finding the best indoor grills with removable plates is easier said than done, but we'd argue that few models hold up better than this version from George Foreman. Unlike other countertop grills, this model is designed with easy cleanup in mind and comes with removable plates that are nonstick and dishwasher safe. According to the retailer, this indoor grill heats up "35 percent faster" than other models, making it a great cooking essential if you're in a time crunch. The only con is that this grill does not have adjustable temperature settings.

This electric indoor grill comes with two grill racks, two grill plates, a saucepan, and a detachable bottle opener, so you're equipped with everything you could possibly need to start cooking. That being said, this is a large indoor grill, so if you're someone who is pressed for space or wants something more storage-friendly, it might be worth it to shop out other models.

The portable product comes from Dash (the brand behind the internet's favorite waffle maker) and is ideal for small spaces or travel. It's incredibly lightweight, easy to clean, and available to shop in a wide array of colors. According to reviewers, the only downside is that it's designed specifically for smaller dishes and foods, so don't plan on cooking a sirloin with the product anytime soon.
