5.0 out of 5 stars Slick Portable Gas Grill, June 4, 2011

Once assembled, this unit is a slick mostly stainless steel unit ideal for a small family or tight quarters. Very easy to use and very uniform grilling. One important thing to note that is missing from Amazon's product description - this unit is set up to use 16 oz. propane throw away canisters. You need an adapter (cost about $25.00) to enable you to use regular 5 gallon propane tanks.

At this price point I feel I got a great deal. The grill is very well made. Easy to assemble. Looks great. So much better than a Char Broil I had that just turned to scrap metal.

I haven't used the grill yet, so I will leave feedback on the cooking quality once I've used it a few times. Spent and evening "seasoning" the grill. So it's ready for use now.

Cons:
1. Closure rivet not properly seated. Comes off.
2. It comes with a factory residue on it that was very difficult to remove. It had no sheen when first opened. CitriSolv finally did the trick.(Orange oil). But, that was after 2 or 3 other cleaners.
3. No brace to keep the cover from slamming shut.

Pros:
1. Extremely well made. All parts are VERY substantial.
2. Goes together easily.
3. Love the controls. Auto start works everytime.
4. Shelf can be mounted on either side.(or you can order a second one)
5. Porcelain enamel cooking grill.
6. Gets to +700 degrees in about 10 min.

I am so very happy with this purchase. I live in a apt with a balcony. It fits perfectly and still leaves alot of room. Grills awesome food. Now I need to find a cover for it.
