fabulous must have...:
It does stick a great deal if you don't season it occasionally. And true, its an odd shape. I have an old old stove with tiny burners right now, and it takes close to 10 minutes to heat up evenly on these awful gas burners, and doesn't do a great job if you put a second batch on right away because of the cold spots. but it used to work great on my thermador professional gas stove that had large burners pumping out lots of BTU.

You just have to let it sit and heat till the whole grill is hot.
I love this grill!!! My cooktop is solid, so it cleans... more info
