On about my 4th one of these, we use it a lot when camping and ice fishing. It is compact for traveling, heats up quickly and folds for easy carrying. Very reasonably priced. I actually had my first when I lived in the dorms in college. I would cook right outside the entry and have a lot of people smelling what was cooking.
I received this grill for my birthday. I LOVE IT!!!. I use it more than my larger Char Broil. I uae it at partiesas a exra grill. I uae it at tailgate events, and everyone comes over to see it, and ask where did I grt it from;
I bought it today just fired it up to use. Making some burgers. Really good size grill for one or two people. Saves me time and money compared to starting up my big grill. Could use a grease tray or trap. But if you clean the grill after every time you use it then there's not much grease build up.
I have had a portable Weber grill for years but finally burned it up. Thought I'd try the portable char-broil grill. It is inexpensive but cheap. The regulator/valve does not give out enough heat (I use a five gallon supply w/read-out ) I had to crank it up to 20.5 compared to 5 on the Weber, and still not enough heat. I then converted my Weber regulator in order to be able to cook. (It then worked as usual) There is no room for anything to place BBQ chips (for flavor). Very hard to clean, I would not repurchase this grill. $ for $ it does not compare.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I bought the grill about a month ago. Assembly was basic, first time it worked good. Second time of use was a different story. The grill would not light, turned out to be a bad gas regulator. After i finally got it lit, the flame was very weak and kept turning off.

The grill works fine but poor construction on attaching the heat distribution plate. You tighten the nuts and they are narrower then the slots in the sheild, so you need to go buy washers to make this work, the nuts just kept popping thru. and the washers need to be very thin or there won't be enough room to get the nuts on. I felt like i was not sent the right hardware for the assembly.
