I imagine smelly puddles of hot dog grease at the bottom. Can you get inside to clean it?

There is a flap and tray on the bottom that you can clean and the "grill" part for the dogs also comes out to clean. We bought it for a gift for someone who really loved hot dogs, but since it always goes back into the box between uses since it doesn't fit the kitchen decor well enough to leave out, he rarely uses it.

It has a tray on the bottom that pulls out for cleaning......very much like a toaster. we love it!

there is a drip cup for the grease. In hind sight I think we would of just went with a basic fold up grill. Kinda bulky and the legs seemed cheap, they kinda bent when we had to kinda force them to fold. Cool though.

No that's the problem. The grease goes up through the grids and appears to collect on them--- ok so far because the grids must be cleaned every time the fan is used. This works well because of the ever time cleaning. IF YOU DON'T CLEAN THEM EVERY TIME THEN THE GREAS WILL BUILD UP PASSING TO THE INSIDE

The grease is supposed to run to the back, then to the downspout in the middle of the back. It does. Once, the down-spout got clogged, and I got a small puddle there, but it was only there. I have never had problems with the grease puddling where the food is cooking. MUCH better than George Foreman's grill. Just wipe it down occasionally, especially the track along the back.

Jason, I never have used it because it is just too big for the amount of bacon grease I collect. Sorry.

No, it cannot, but you can try to clean it when it is inside, but you should be very very carefully.

There is a "grease collection drawer" that slides in and out behind the grill

First of all, try to avoid reoccurrence of this situation by lining the bottom of the dehydrator with aluminum foil prior to use. Be careful not to block air flow. To clean greasy residue... I have found nothing better on the market than a product named "Greased Lightning". It will melt the grease and you can wipe it out with paper towel. Greased Lightning can be found in many Dollar Stores. U won't believe how good this stuff cleans.

There is an odor but I think your cleanup would be a bigger issue.This is best used outdoors.

Yes. The directions recommend you always use the basket, and not clean things directly against the metal surface on the bottom.

We used Barkeepers Friend cream cleanser and small sponge. We had to let the baked-on grease stains sit in soapy hot water solution for the fry pan.

Yes you can but frankly I don't know why you would want to. The reason is the pan gets coated with hot beer and chicken juices that I am almost sure you will want to clean it by hand. It works great and I really like using it.

No, it was used once and it was indoors, the good thing about it, it did not smoke or splash grease all over.

Not really, it has a very large grease collection pan located below and between the two cooking surfaces.

You can get a copper cleaner. Don't use on the inside and make sure it isn't flammable.

The unit is so small that I use an all purpose grease clean and spray it out completely. Mine is very clean as a result with no smells, I love mine.

No, I just want to clean it before use and find the stains on the botton of it.It just look like a second-hand wok
