I like this grill because it is small and portable so I can take it with me since it’s easy to move. I recommend this if you like to go camping

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought for my tenants in my suite however I ended up keeping it and bringing it to the beach and fits perfectly in the side by side out in the back county.

Uneven heat, Disappointing Performance
on July 30, 2023

Very disappointed in this grill, the heat is extremely uneven. With hot dogs one end is burnt and the other barely warm, burgers are similar, you have to constantly move them around the grill to cook evenly. I won't put a decent steak on this grill.
I bought this grill to replace an 8 year old NexGrill that is nearing the end of it's life, after 8 years that grill still cooks an awesome steak. I'll be returning this Napoleon Model and putting the NexGrill back into service.
Very disappointing results from what should be a quality brand.

Uneven heat/cooking spots, lacking performance

It was a toss up between the Q240 and the Q285 and based on the reviews I made the decision to go with the Q240 and honestly I regret it.
I purchased this bbq in May or June of 2023 (as I’ve always wanted a portable Napoleon after hearing great things about it from friends) as a replacement to my 3 year old portable NexGrill that evenly cooked hot even though it flared up often. After using it on a recent camping trip I’m so very disappointed in the performance of this grill. It takes a long time to heat up (blue flame and all) and the heat is extremely uneven you can really only cook on half of it (left side) plus you have to focus on the upper and lower areas, the middle section has very little heat because there is no burner tube.
When cooking on the left I can get a pretty decent sear on a steak or short ribs but when cooking on the right the meat ends up looking pale and barely cooked. You constantly have to keep rotating the food around the entire grill or just use one half to cook (defeats the purpose of having 240 sq inches).
I believe the Q285 has the design and performance to properly show case the quality and performance I’ve come to expect from Napoleon (I have a home Napoleon bbq).
My design opinion, it would have been more balanced and pretty much perfect if the burner tube running down the middle actually produced heat rather than being hollow.

Thank you for reaching out and sharing your feedback on TQ240-BL. We are sorry the product has not met your expectations. Based on your description, it sounds like the unit could be in low flow, which is a safety feature the regulator will flip into. Please reach out to our support team at 1-866-820-8686 or via email at grills@napoleon.com with your model and serial number. This will allow one of our agents to look into this further for you and determine a solution. We appreciate your honest opinion and hope we get an opportunity to look into this more with you. Thank you!

EXTREMELY IMPREDDED

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My buddy brought one on an overnight fishing trip. He fired it up and made the quickest and best-tasting burgers. So the next morning I took over and fired it up. Quick start, even temps, and easy cleanup. It's a great little grill. On my list to get.
