What is the temperature range of this griddle?

Temperature is controlled by a plug-in rotating dial with increments from OFF, WARM, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400. It takes a little while to come up to the higher temps because of the size of the surface. I have not calibrated it with an external thermometer or checked for cool spots but it cooks evenly.

175 to 400. However, have only used 4 times and noticed last use that it wasn't heating up. Had to wiggle plug to get to heat up. Most likely a loose connection.

The thermostat goes from a minimum of "Warm". It then goes from 200 degrees to 400 degrees, with markers every 50 degrees.

Like any pan, it will be hotter where the heat source is, it does disperse pretty well though. I would recommend the lodge cast iron griddle instead. I have both and the lodge is easily my favorite

Maximum safe temperature is 450 Deg F. Personally, I've not used mine above 400 Deg, but love the pan! It's also great when reheating left-overs.

No, mind did not. Maybe you are using to high of heat. As per the manufacturer, you should only use medium heat on the griddle

Maybe you have the temp too high. I don't this unit, but thats usually the case with pancakes on a griddle.

I can only tell you, I tried to set it on warm and sometime it would work. I melted the end of a spatula on warm. I returned it to the the mfr. and it was replaced with a same griddle with a black cooking surface that works fine. I am sure that the first one was defective and based on comments I have seen, it's not the only one!

Yes there is a range of cooking temps. I have not used the highest temp setting as of yet to do any cooking.

To be honest, I have never been aware of the outside temperature. If yours is cool and it seems to be fucntioning properly, I would not be concerned. Perhaps it's well enough insulated that you don't feel the heat on the outside. However, if you don't feel it is cooking in the time suggested, you might consider returning it. Sorry I couldn't be more specific.

I believe it to be 400-425. The last marked temp on my gauge is 350, and the next one says "sear" without a number, but you can't "sear" at 350 very well. Use it cautiously until you get used to what it will do and how quickly. It will "burn" very quickly if you don't watch closely. You can get very nice grill marks. The mid area of the cooking surfaces on my unit provide the most uniform and accurate temperatures.

It seems to be listed as 500*F but I've had mine up to 750* on my Big Green Egg. Not recommending that, just saying that it worked fine.I always try to get it in while preheating so it heats slowly and then I leave it in when I shut it down, so it cools slowly.

Not sure, but I think it is below 350 degrees Fahrenheit. look up on, google ceramic cookware

I can't give a temperature but I have cooked just about everything on mine with no problems. I also have a 4 burner for large parties and I can't say it works any better other than hold more. I love this one so far.

I just went out and tested the grill. With one burner on at the lowest setting, cover down, the temperature was approx. 265 degrees. I'm glad you asked because now I know what to expect.

The pamphlet from Calphalon says "oven safe to 450". I probably wouldn't trust it past 425 degrees. The cookware is not broiler safe.

Sometimes you can set the temperature to high for certain foods and it helps to prevent causing a build up on the griddle. Non stick doesn't keep it from burning.

I dont know the exact temperature, i can tell you that heats up very fast. Its excelent.

Mine is on Fahrenheit not Celsius (maybe you have a different one andwe use it for frying putting it into the oil (not hitting the pan )when the temp hits 350 put the food in to fry ! Hope this helps
