Nice addition. Too small.

The shelf is a great addition to the Ironwood, but is too narrow (depth) for full functionality. When the lid is closed the handle takes up a large portion of the shelf, making it's use limited. The shelf on my Ironwood 650 extends about 3" further from the handle which made it much more useful when cooking. Also making it as wide as the grill would be nice. Marginal value for the price.

Hello, and thank you for your feedback on the Pop-And-Lock (P.A.L.) Front Folding Shelf. While the size of the shelf is limited by weight and other considerations, the 10 ½” depth should still provide a substantial amount of room, even when the lid is closed, while also having a decent amount of space below the handle as well. But there is an option for a wider shelf, that does go from one end of the Ironwood to the other. The P.A.L. folding shelf for the new touchscreen Ironwoods and Timberlines is available in two sizes, this one and the XL. Although the 34” XL shelf is typically used on XL models (i.e., the Ironwood XL and Timberline XL), it can still be attached to the smaller versions, with the weight spreading evenly across the width of the grill. This will give you significantly more space if the smaller option does not meet your specific needs.

Shelf not up to Traeger standards. I ordered this for my Silverstone XL. I would have liked it longer, but you cannot have everything. But what really frosted me is when I went out this morning to put the cover on. It was a nice sunny morning and realized the PAINT does NOT match.

Hello, and thank you for reviewing the Pop-And-Lock (P.A.L.) Front Folding Shelf. All P.A.L. accessories are made to the same high standards as any other Traeger product and come with the same one-year warranty for material and manufacturing defects. If you actually find that the shelf is defective in some way, please reach out to Traeger Customer Service and let us know. In regard to the color, as the grill name suggests, the Silverton XL does have a subtle silver hue to it that may be perceptible upon close inspection or in very bright light, such as one might encounter on an exceptionally sunny morning. Otherwise, even blacker items, such as the P.A.L. shelf will not really contrast enough with the grill’s coating to be noticeable unless intentionally looking for some variation between them.

Bought this shelf when purchasing a Gen 2 Ironwood, the build quality is fine and it attaches well to the Pop and Lock system. Dropping and raising the shelf is a doddle and it accommodates the Traeger cover perfectly. So far so good! The problem arises with the width of the thing, the available space when the grill hood is down is simply too narrow to be particularly useful because of the way the hood handle impinges on the shelf. The larger version shelf is longer but has the same width, this issue is something that is commented on in various Traeger forums with people trying to develop a workaround or even make their own shelf. Given the weight of a Traeger I cant imaging a wider shelf (maybe 3-4 inches) would affect stability and given it is a drop down shelf it shouldn't impact on the use of a cover? I have quite a few Traeger accessories which in the main are excellent but I believe they have dropped the ball on this one.

Hi, and thanks for your review of the Pop-And-Lock (P.A.L.) Front Folding Shelf. While the stability would likely not be affected by a wider shelf, the extra weight may make it a little too cumbersome for some people. But we do appreciate your feedback and are always paying attention to what our customers have to say.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
