No steam even that’s just general water vapor because the water got warm and gets misty like a shower. Which is just another testament to how little “smoke” is coming out 😂
I've done some research. Apparently bacon is a bit much for this thing to completely eliminate the smoke. And it's supposed to work by letting the water snuff out the burning fat and oils before they can produce smoke. With bacon it's just too much grease. Any other meat it should work just fine. Here's an excerpt from the article I just read: The slanted grilling grate on power smokeless grills directs fat and oils towards a drip pan underneath, disposing of them before they can create smoke. All of that sounds good and fun, but how something is designed is not always how it functions. Do power smokeless grills actually work? For the most part, yes. The slanted, non-stick grill system is effective at limiting smoke creation, however, most models, even the high-end ones, tend to still produce a bit of smoke with fattier meats. Using the force of gravity and a nonstick surface, they are still no match for bacon grease. They simply can’t channel it away quickly enough. However, I want to emphasize that the smoke they produce is a limited amount, and with meat like chicken, there should be none.

The water doesn’t filter it lol. It just ensures that the fat from the food doesn’t burn since its immediately cooled off when it drips into the water. Which reduces the amount of smoke significantly.
Good job at following the instructions. I know a lot of people think instructions and manuals are worthless, but you really should always read the fine manual from cover to cover.
A smokeless grill is any indoor appliance that mimics an outdoor grill's cooking process, yet do not let off enough smoke to trigger your smoke alarm. Instead of direct, open flames, these appliances use a number of different electric heat sources that are completely safe for indoor use. So yes some smoke is normal..
@@Ok-mi9ed I did, but I'll try again. The clue is in the name, 'less' means exactly that, _less_ than the normal amount. If they had advertised a 'smoke-free' grill you could expect there to be zero smoke. I'm not saying that a smoke-free grill exists. I used the example of stainless steel, which people often mistakenly believe will never rust (aka stain) when in reality it only rusts less than regular steel. Products that use '-less' in their naming are not the same as those that claim '-free'. And again, as far as I know there's no indoor 'smoke-free' grill that exists, however I can say with certainty if you buy one that is called 'smokeless' thinking there's going to be no smoke you're going to be disappointed.
Smokeless indoor grills use electricity, which does not create fumes. Whereas outdoor grills have open grates that allow the drippings to fall into the firebox, smokeless indoor grills have closed grates and direct drippings to a grease management system that prevents the grease from burning and creating smoke.
Two things first… Reading the instructions and it working better imagine that and second… It says smokeless just like stainless steel it does not say smoke proof just like you can make stainless steel rust it is smoke… Less
I bought this grill a few years ago. It works great! I cook bacon on it with the griddle, not the grill. No smoke and no steam and I don't even put water in it.
Tyler has a boomer soul. I love when he refuses to admit something works well because he doesnt like it. Also as everyone else pointed out its just steam bro. Love the vids!
My guess is that the cool water is able to cool/condense the smoke in the beginning while it's still cold (or at least colder than the smoke/grill). As the water heats up it becomes less and less effective. Just a theory!
@@Uhh.thankyou that is NOT true. That's not how smoke works. Water does not make smoke condense. Smoke doesn't condense period. Condensation is something that happens with water vapor NOT smoke. And water doesn't make smoke slow down either.
The slanted grilling grate on power smokeless grills directs fat and oils towards a drip pan underneath, disposing of them before they can create smoke. This direction of fat away from the grill not only deters smoke creation, it also leads to healthier, leaner food, and a grill that is easier to clean. All of that sounds good and fun, but how something is designed is not always how it functions. Do power smokeless grills actually work? For the most part, yes. The slanted, non-stick grill system is effective at limiting smoke creation, however, most models, even the high-end ones, tend to still produce a bit of smoke with fattier meats.

However, I want to emphasize that the smoke they produce is a limited amount, and with meat like chicken, there should be none.
If I remember correctly from watching someone review a similar item, the whole "smokeless" is actually along the the lines of less smoke rather than smoke free. Will there still be some smoke? Possibly, but it won't be nearly as much as if you were doing it on a griddle or even a skillet without a lid. Appliances such as this that have "smokeless" in their name are not always going to 100% get rid of the smoke. They are designed to reduce it drastically to reduce the possibility of setting of a smoke alarm. I've set off my smoke alarm cooking burgers on a griddle or skillet bcuz I didn't have an appliance like this.
I feel like what happened is in the beginning, like everyone keeps saying it was water vapor, but after enough grease got into the water the water couldn’t steam and that caused it to start actually smoking
It's easier for us to see the smoke when you do the overhead time lapse. You sound like a crazy man from regular camera because we, at least me sees absolutely no smoke at that angle 🤣
It's so loud though, I feel like the noise would make it not worth it, even if it did work better. I feel like there is a way to make something like that with way less noise.
You think that smoke was bad? You should see how much smoke my shower makes. Especially when it’s kind of chilly in the house, and the water is hot! So much smoke! I keep calling the fire department, but they just don’t bother showing up anymore. Apparently the kind of smoke my shower makes doesn’t mean there’s a fire… I don’t know, I’m not a science person.
This is probably going to be a 'hot take', but the "Smoke-Less" stuff isn't going to actually be smokeless, because of misunderstood semantics. They once made a "smokeless ashtray". It was a vacuum built into an ashtray with vents to pull the smoke through. The smoke then went through an air filter, filtering out all the stuff that make smoke smoke, and emitted filtered air. The "Smoke-Less" stuff only decreases the amount of smoke from cooking. It will never completely eliminate it, because it doesn't use the aforementioned technique. But if you put bacon in a frying pan, you'll see more smoke than you would if you put it on the "Smoke-Less" grill (notice the hyphen.. that's the misunderstood semantics).
@@MapleMan1984 not necessarily, stainless steel for instance, means it will stain(rust) less than regular steel. it will still rust given enough time, but less so

Bacon makes a lot of grease anyway besides that the grease is literally draining into that tray from the griddle like it's supposed to. I don't think it would have made any difference. However it is disturbing that he didn't clean the thing he just cooked with the whole time he has had it.
