I bought the 3-plate warming tray as a present for my Mom earlier this year. I figure it'll come in handy for meals at holidays or family gatherings with many dishes. I've tried it out myself a few times. Here are my thoughts:
* It works as advertised-- you plug it for around 8 minutes to heat it up, and the food on it really stays warm for about an hour. (I timed it.)
* This is important: Plates with perfectly flat bottoms work better. More surface area in contact with the warming tray.
* The power cord is very short. If you plan on plugging in the warming tray while it's sitting on your dining table, you may need an extension cord.
* There is no ON/OFF switch. You turn it off by unplugging it. So you can't just leave the tray plugged in all the time on a counter somewhere.
* Presentation-wise, the warming tray looks nice. Not too cheap-looking. No problems with leaving it on the dining table when your guests come.
* When it says "3-plate", it means 3 individual-sized plates. With larger serving plates, you might manage only 2 plates. Knowing this, if I were to buy this tray again, I would probably get the 4-plate version.

The Raclette grill is exactly like the one we brought from Germany. It is wonderful. There are probably items with higher quality. But for an item like this, which you do not use every day it has a great value for the price. I love it and the family who got it for christmas loved it, too !
