 * That brand is sold here too. Any generic use? (Not that I'm aware of.) Equinox ◑ 22:35, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
 * The lean mean grilling machine! “George Foreman” is a registered trademark. Uses are not required to be generic, but must be be independent of, and not identify, the manufacturer or other interested parties. So “Steinway” is fine, but not if the quotation refers to Steinway & Sons rather than just the piano. The use here counts as a proper attestation. I guess this one as well, although it uses a different capitalization. And we can finish with number three. --Lambiam 23:26, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
 * As I understand the policy if you could attest George Foreman as a standalone noun, that would be comparable to Steinway, but Steinway grand piano does not have an entry, and George Foreman grill should not either. -Mike (talk) 16:23, 24 April 2019 (UTC)
 * That is not particularly hard: . --Lambiam 19:21, 24 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Deleted, though I would suspect that if someone wanted to recreate this as a genericized term for similar electric grills it would be citable. - TheDaveRoss  13:14, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
