Our Verdicts

Ninja Woodfire OG701 Outdoor Grill & Smoker

The OG701 is Consumer Reports' notable small-space model: an electric grill that adds genuine wood-smoke flavor from a half-cup of pellets. At about $349 it's the apartment pick when flavor matters more than capacity.

Weber Lumin Electric Grill

The Lumin is Good Housekeeping's electric pick and the honest answer when open flame is banned: 600°F-plus searing, cast-iron grates, and Weber build quality. Amazon undercut Home Depot and Weber direct by $100 in our dated check.
