Table grills can roast anything that can be roasted. All four tested devices heat their frying zone to at least 225 °C after ten minutes at the latest.

The Gastroback is the only table grill in the test that can also be used to cook and crisp thicker beef steaks such as rib eye and T-bone. The ability to control the two grill surfaces separately helps keep food warm and continue cooking. With a 50 × 30 cm cooking surface, it is one of the largest and hottest table grills on the market. If you don't have to or can't use a large, smoking outdoor grill, tablegrills are the right choice.
