Grill Grates are Terrible

Length of ownership:1 month
The tru-infared grill grates are absolutely impossible to keep clean. After each use of the grill I have to soak the grates in hot soapy water and use a wire brush to properly clean them. The grill is overpriced and under delivers.
Very unhappy with this purchases - I would not buy this grill. Go for a cheaper and simpler option.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We're sorry to hear of the issues encountered. We recommend a nylon brush and warm soapy water or biodegradable grill cleaner. Seasoning the grates with canola oil will also help to keep food from sticking and prevent rust. Please give us a call at 1-800-241-7548 for more information.

Highly recommend this grill

I have had my TRU-Infrared unit for 6 years and it is still going strong! I have never owned a grill that the igniters lasted more than a couple years! I replaced the stainless grills and pans last year and plan to get many more years of excellent bbq results from my unit! I always keep my grill covered with a CharBroil cover but use it year round...during sunny weather or rainy weather or winter snowstorms! (the Canadian way) If this grill ever wears out I will definitely replace it with the same model!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Run ... fast and furiously

This is supposed to be an improvement on the original CharBroil RED. It is not. Cooking right on the grate with no place for grease to go is not a good idea. I had to replace my grates in 8 months. Cleaning and care instructions from CharBroil do not prevent grease build up. I have buyers remorse in a BIG way !!!

Only had product since labor day. I have grilled on it several times and am not at all pleased with it. Temperature is impossible to control below 300 degrees. Smokes excessively while cooking and using the recommended 5-10 minute after cooking burn off. Stainless steel is beginning to discolor from smoke. Difficult and time consuming to clean. MUST be cleaned after every use. Cooks well and quickly only saving grace. I purchased a Charbroil TRU Infrared grill last year for my Florida home and I love it. I honestly thought this grill would be as good.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Biggest regret of the season

Words cannot express just how much I hate this grill and how it always seems to fail me. No matter how low I set it my food always chars on the outside. It’s horrible to clean and by horrible I mean having to remove the grates and wash them every time I use it. I Will be wheeling this junk to the tree lawn on trash pick up before the summer is over. I’m thoroughly disappointed. This needs to have better heat regulation.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
