Fuel type: some will be gas-fuelled, others need wood, or it may be a multi-fuel. Indoor pizza ovens plug into the mains so don't need any other means of generating heat. Hinged press/grill – with no-squish adjustable height settings; 3 one-touch presets for Panini, Burger and Steak; independent heating dials for top and bottom plates, and brushed stainless steel finish.

If you’re a foodie, we’d recommend the Cobb Premier barbecue – and if you’re a foodie for whom money is no object then the Big Green Egg MiniMax is an even better option. And if you’re simply after a good, techie barbecue then you should consider the fan-assisted Lotus Grill. Verdict The grill has a couple of unique features. The first is five smart cooking modes for beef, lamb, pork, poultry and fish. After selecting the mode you want, you then turn the knob to tell it how well done you’d like your food. The second feature of note is the grill’s temperature probe, which plugs in on the right-hand side. Together, these features enable you to tell the Sage what you’re cooking, and in return it will inform you when your food is ready.

Ease of build and use: We timed how long it took to build the oven and rated the instruction manual. We then assessed how easy it was to use the oven. Fancy a perfectly pressed panini, complete with griddle lines, at the touch of a button? Mmm, melty cheese… How about a delicious juicy burger, cooked just the way you like it, or a seared steak? Sage’s The BBQ & Press Grill gives you all of these at the touch of a button, and that’s just the start of its powers. With two reversible flat/griddle plates, each with an independent temperature control, two modes – panini press and open barbecue – and three one-touch presets, this versatile machine puts precision grilling at your fingertips. Although most manufacturers say you can cook using little or no oil, if you cook with no oil, you will almost certainly be removing dried on food from the plates. Even when using a small amount of oil (you can either add it to the grill plate or directly to the food), you will still need to remove some food residue. All the grills we tested are easy to clean using soapy water and a cloth. Some of the more expensive models have detachable grill plates and accessories that you can soak in the sink or dishwasher.That said, once we’d figured out which modes worked best for our preference, the results tasted great and were very consistent. It also has a brushed stainless-steel finish, which is a magnet for fingerprints even before you start cooking with it. Offering various height and angle adjustments, the Sage Smart Grill Pro can accommodate a number of different foodstuffs. In addition, it opens out a full 180 degrees for use as an electric barbecue. Of the two grill plates, one is flat and the other ridged, and the position of both – bottom or top – is interchangeable. verifyErrors }}{{ message }}{{ /verifyErrors }}{{ The electronic temperature control allows you to be charged, allowing you to adjust the heat of the high-quality ceramic plates separately to make sure that whatever you are cooking can be cooked evenly and to your liking. You can also adjust the angle of the plates allowing you to make sure that you have a perfectly flat, even covering of your decided food. Specifications

Aside from that, though, the industrial design is impressive. On the underside of the Smart Grill Pro there’s space to stow the cable when the grill’s not in use, and on its right-hand side there’s a place to loop the cable for the temperature probe. There’s also a large drip tray beneath it. The simple control panel has three one-touch presets – Panini, Burger and Steak – that give you perfect results at the touch of a button. There are also two temperature dials, each controlling one of the plates, so you can turn up the heat of each plate independently to suit whatever you’re cooking. Apart from that, there’s just a power button and two lights that show you if it’s heating up and when it’s ready to cook, so it really couldn’t be simpler to use.

Safety: Pizzas require incredibly high temperatures to cook so we looked for excellent insulation and safety features to make using the pizza oven easy to use.
