My husband and I own a Charbroil grill and sent this one to my grandson as a wedding gift. This grills food beautifully, even chicken which can be hard to do without charring. I can't comment on putting together since I wasn't involved but I have owned my Charbroil for four years and its sturdy and nothing has fallen off. I highly recommend and when I need a new bbq I will purchase a Charbroil.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I've had my grill for two weeks now and it's the best thing ever. I have even grilled vegetables on it as well.

I've had mine for over 10 years. I worn it out I've used it so much. It's still great.

Neat Grill

I bought this grill last night, and found three holes in the legs to not be fully punched. That is three of the twelve holes that are needed to assemble the legs to the supports and bottom of the grill. I used my punch set to move them to finish assembly as I am hosting a party in two days, and did not want to deal with returns. Other than that I was pleased with the fastener package, one package almost an 8x11 sheet with clear labeled pieces and a perforated backside for getting what you need when you need it. I think that this grill should be very capable with two dampers and adjustable grate height. Being made in USA is a big plus for me when shopping, but it also makes me more disappointed when I find mistakes like this.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I've had this for a bit over a year and i love it. I use it about 3-5 times a week. It's starting to rust due to being left out in the rain. I would definitely recommend this grill.

Best "Zen" grill ever, best price too !

This model is the best and mechanically simplest design that works flawlessly. It's rudimentary in features but has all the important touches like cast iron grates, good size compartment, shelves to hold trays of food to cook, built in temp gauge, wooden handles, wheels for easy mobility to clean around it, wood and coal rack that I use to also store the charcoal starter can. Price is unbeatable ! for this class. I'm on my 4th grill since 2005 when I bought my first one, I've either gifted or sold it before I sell and move (which I do often!). It keeps up very well with my "winter bbq" patterns and holds in good heat even with very cold ambient temps. Lots of room for 6-8 steaks, tomatoes, corn - and even a pan or pot to cook stews in (pic). The wooden slat racks have room for two large trays and you can also screw in brass hooks to hold tools, utensils, towels, etc. Cleaning (cold, dry coals of course, right, right?) is very easy using just a large garbage bag, just lift the coal tray with its handles and carefully slip into garbage bag, shake out and scrape off tray. Scrape bottom of barrel of grease and replace tray. you get to see all the fat you coked with but didn't eat (if you're watching your fat intake!). If there's ever a "best and cheapest" option, it's this model !!
