When your Belgian Waffle Baker is turned "ON" for 5 hours every morning and is not used continuously, the grids will get dirty. WHen the Baker is in constant use, the grids stay clean. Thus, the removable grid. The grids are easy to remove as you turn the two knobs on the upper portion or the two on the lower portion. Clean the grids away from the Baker. It's easier and safer.
