Char-Broil® 1-Burner Portable Propane Gas Grill, Black – 17402049

Absolutely terrible. Poor quality product. Lot of people complaining about loose gas connection. Obviously the manufacturer has done Nothing to address it as mine arrived with the same issue. Flame is very low and obviously because of loose connection gas is leaking.

Good Little BBQ! Grill gets very hot (500-625° with lid closed) & food is close to the flame so you have to move things around a lot so you don't burn them (i.e. with longer-cooking foods like potatos). With a little fine adjustment i was able to turn down the flame pretty low without it going out. Other reviews said it could use a wider flame shield & i agree. I suggest if it were wider AND had holes in half of it (like along one long side) you could move food to a cooler area to cook slower. As it is out of the box, the coolest spot is directly over the heat shield. Around the sides of the grill get hot! Have an oven mitt handy & a Phillips head screwdriver so you can re-tighten the front plastic handle screws after your first hot cooking session. This is a Great Grill for steaks & burgers though! I will definitely take it camping! FYI: Underneath the bbq unit gets quite hot so make sure it's not on a delicate surface, etc, as it could possibly melt/damage a plastic table or rubberized tablecloth. I put a couple of big ceramic floor tiles under mine & it makes a great spot to keep your food warm wrapped in foil. I hooked mine up to a larger 5 gallon tank with an adapter hose i got off Amazon. Works great! For camping I'd probably just bring a few of the small propane bottles. Grill was pretty straighforward & simple to put together (45 min-1 hr), but i am good with mechanical assembly of things like this. The regulator Does turn freely once "locked" in place. It is a loose fit, but it does not affect the performance or flame. It's very easy to turn & remove it for transport. (You can also leave it still attached to the small bottle or tank hose. Just make sure gas is shut off or else disconnect bottle/tank completely if you smell any gas). Overall, I am Very happy with this little grill. It will be nice to have for portable summer grilling!

It needs to slow burner down more for not so hot cooking.

Esa conexión se ve bastante mal, no se asegura y es gas. No se siente algo que quisiera usar con mis hijos cerca y no es algo de lo que quiera estar cerca por esa conexión. No puedo creer que vendan un producto que usa gas con una conexión tan insegura como esa y el manual no es claro.

Best portable grill available. Use camping, ice fishing and picnics. Sturdy and reliable. Fourth year using and have not replaced any parts. Bought as Christmas gift for son-in-law and loves it too two years later.

We got this grill just in time for our camping trip and have been very pleased with it. It heats up fast, is very easy to use, easy to carry, cools off quickly, and I love the temperature guage. Fits 4 lbs of chicken thighs with room left to easily turn and reposition pieces. As with others, our regulator just kinda hangs there, but this presents no problems and I've had the same set up with other grills. ASSEMBLY It's true that the assembly instructions are in pictures instead of words but I did not find it difficult to understand them or to actually assemble the grill. I did take the time at the start to do an inventory of all the items. This helped a lot because some of the items which are listed as separate are actually already connected to another item. When it came time to assemble one of those pieces, I didn't have to figure it out on the fly. The hardest piece to assemble is attaching the little black wire from the starter button to the widget that it's connected to. I had to hold the grill in an awkward position to see and to get a grip on both pieces. It required a lot of hand force but it snapped in eventually. ASSEMBLY RECOMMENDATION: 1. Do an inventory and 2. Be patient when it comes to that little black wire. I'm giving it a 4 because the assembly wasn't "a piece of cake".
