Char-Broil Portable Convective 1-Burner Stainless Steel Propane Gas Grill - 465133010

I recently had a literal meltdown on my full size grill. The regulator developed a leak and went ballistic, like it went into Jet Engine Mode for about 5 minutes. Luckily for me the direction of the "jet" was AWAY from my house or it would've set my house on fire. So for the rest of my life, I will NOT own a full size gas grill.....EVER.... as in the history of ever.

Works great. Price is right. In fact, it is so right that if you get an extension hose for tank (Home Depot has the right ones in the tools section with the other propane torch accessories) it will cost almost as much as the grill itself.

Bought this two years ago on a "warehouse" deal, was even cheaper. Didn't want to carry a larger nicer grill in my small RV all the time.This would be a great to use a lot for a season, then leave it, but it seems to last OK even though it is cheaply made of mild steel.I don't clean it, I just use it.The wire legs fold up nicely, the handles work well.One complaint though, the black coating on the shell inside and outside, I assume some kind of high heat paint, tends to burn on the inside and peel off. I guess as it's burning it's off gassing to the food? I don't know, won't kill me.There seems to be a few grills that look pretty much like this, but the folding wire legs are a big plus as they lock the shells together.Btw, I found this Camco grill bag on Amazon that fits this perfectly, should keep the grill residue contained when I do bring it in the RV.I also got a "warehouse" price on this.Here's the Amazon link.https://a.co/d/eLbWohL

Nice compact barbeque. Easy to store and easy to use.

This grill ruined my 4th of July weekend. Save your cookout, campout or whatever, and buy something else.The most egregious of the many faults of this grill (cheap almost-fits-together construction, plastic and rubber used for heat-sensitive areas like the top handle, a regulator that is more of an on/off switch than a dial, and legs that interfere with the placement of the propane bottle in the regulator so its never quite secure or sturdy on the table - and yes, you need a table because a Coleman 1lb. bottle hangs down 6-8 inches below the legs) is the total lack of heat control or distribution.Regardless of where you set the knob (using Coleman brand 1lb. Propane bottles), the single burner somehow produces enough heat to scorch any food placed on the rack without cooking the inside. The first night, my hot dogs were burnt and blacked on the outside (yes, we did the initial burn-off of the manufacturing coating before attempting to cook on it) and still COLD on the inside! Same with the burgers on day 2. Blacked and charred on the outside and raw on the inside, even on the lowest setting (and no, they were not frozen)!‘It must have good cooking power’ you might be thinking? No. A 2 cup percolator left on the grill for over an hour on the highest setting NEVER BOILED. After a full hour of high heat, the sides of the percolator were still luke warm to the touch. I wound up building a fire, letting it burn down to a bed of coals, and moving the percolator to the fire pit to make my (and my whole camp site’s) coffee 2 1/2 hours after we all woke up.Standing around staring at a grill burn through propane for over an hour with no noticeable effect on the coffee 6-8 hungover campers are waiting for is not worth the $50 price tag.By the third night we left the campsite early and drove to a local friend’s house to cook our 4th of July steaks on their back deck grill.I could not return this pos fast enough.Save yourself.

For $39.99 one can expect to see minor flaws; the bottom heat deflector plate and the rim of the grill were dented (quite minor at both locations) and quickly reshaped. The compactness is very nice. I will hook it up to a gas bottle tomorrow and give it a whirl, but do not foresee the test to prove problematic.

I have used this grill for almost exactly one year now. It served me well for about 6 months then it started breaking down... The internal fire guard or drip guard rusted out where the screws hold it in place. then the body rusted out to form new openings.... I worked around that problem, but it is simply degrading too much now... I tried building another drip guard, but it only absorbs too much heat.. so the steaks just don't sizzle now....I may be using this grill wrong... It is portable... so maybe occasional use would make it last much longer... I leave mine in place and outside... So it is subject to the elements.... I guess I made the wrong choice for an outside grill, but I was on a strict budget... So I tried... I would not get this grill again for any reason... it just left a bad taste... I hope that others have better luck with theirs...

Good camping or back up grill
