Overview
['The Kenyon B70605 is a single-burner countertop electric grill with 213 square inches of stainless steel cooking surface. It measures 21.6 x 19.25 x 9.5 inches and weighs 37 pounds, slightly heavier and wider than the smaller Kenyon B70090 but still manageable as a portable countertop unit.', 'The 213 sq in surface is a meaningful step up from the 155 sq in on the B70090, giving you room to cook three to four steaks or a larger batch of burgers in one go. The silver stainless steel finish and countertop install type keep it flexible for use on a patio, countertop, or table without any built-in modification.', 'The 4.1-star average from 11 reviews is decent but suggests a few buyers have had less than fully positive experiences. At $905, the price is somewhat lower than the B70090 despite the larger cooking area, which makes the B70605 an interesting value proposition within the Kenyon electric line.']

Frequently asked questions
How does the Kenyon B70605 compare to the smaller B70090?
The B70605 has 213 sq in of cooking surface versus 155 sq in on the B70090, and it costs $905 compared to $1,150 for the B70090. The B70605 gives you more room to cook and costs less, which makes it a strong alternative if a countertop electric unit is what you need. Both have a single burner and countertop install type.
Is 213 sq in enough for a family cookout?
213 sq in can fit three to four standard burger patties or two large steaks at once. For a family of four, that is workable but means one or two rounds of cooking rather than getting everything done simultaneously. For groups larger than four, you would need to plan for multiple batches.
Why does the B70605 cost less than the smaller B70090?
Pricing in the Kenyon line is not always strictly tied to cooking area. Different models may have different heating element configurations, control features, or production dates that affect pricing. Both are premium electric grills, and the current pricing may reflect market adjustments over time. Compare both carefully and buy based on the specs you need.
