What we take away
The RP360 starts from a simple and genuinely clever idea: instead of passing the grill around, you turn the base. Set in the middle of the table, it swivels 360° to bring the pans to each guest, which ends the ballet of arms stretched across the potatoes. Better still, the grill splits into two parts: line them up as a table runner for a long table, or set them at an angle, and each half has its own switch with an indicator light. When dessert comes, you switch one plate off and keep the other warm.
On the cooking side, H.Koenig advertises four modes thanks to two interchangeable non-stick plates: raclette, grill, crêpe maker and keep-warm. The official sheet mentions “granite stone and grill”, and the photo does show a grill plate and a granite-look plate. At 1200 W for eight pans, it sits in the average for family grills, with no thermostat mentioned. The weight is a real plus: 2.73 kg net according to H.Koenig, well under some stone grills that top 5 kg. The warranty is 2 years according to the manual, which also reminds you never to immerse the appliance. One shadow: the product is listed as sold out on the brand’s site, so check availability with the retailer.
