Upon delivery, griddle box looked like it had been dropped several times and was pretty beat up. Opening the box and unpacking the parts showed everything was ok although a lot of the styrofoam was broken. Assembly was easy except for the side tables where the holes didn't exactly align. First use was uneventful for both a breakfast cook of sausage, eggs and bacon then hotdogs and hamburgers. Only issue was with the drain pan. Seemed to not properly align and some of the grease missed the holding pan. Otherwise it works and looks great!

This is the “do all” way to cook outside. Breakfast, lunch or dinner. Just be careful, high is hot. Leave it on low to safe gas and not burn food. Seared some filet mignon for two minutes on low on each side (used butter instead of oil) last night and it was perfection. Before you use it, make sure you read the instructions and season it with oil then google “hibachi accessories” to get the long spatulas, squirt bottles for water and oil, lid cover for steaming and the press and your all set. You don’t really need those items but my wife and I love this thing and we’re all in. I don’t even use my old grill anymore. Think about this, restaurants use flat tops for most of their cooking.

My Wife and I purchased this griddle for the homeless shelter in Phoenix since they were using charcoal and it wasn’t really doing what they needed done,This griddle opened the door for hamburgers,hot dogs,bacon and eggs,pancakes and much more.These people needed this to get alittle happiness in their life

It is exactly as described!! I feel like a Japanese chef cooking on my giant griddle! With four burners, I can cook different items at different temps. I’ve made everything from pancakes to Philly cheesesteaks on my grill. Be sure to season it as per the instructions, and once in a while after. The only downside is the cover. It doesn’t stay on so I put a bungee around it. Then it rained and the rain pooled on the lid which pushed it onto the grill and it leaked through. Had to use steel wool to remove the rust and reseason the grill. I’ll look for a longer waterproof cover, but in the meantime, I’m cooking up a storm!

I rely heavily on reviews when I make purchases so I want to share my thoughts and experience. This is at least my third griddle purchase as I have one at home, the river house, on the pontoon, etc. This is by far my favorite model! This was appx $50 less expensive than its competitor and came with a cover which was very nice and unexpected. The assembly was very straightforward and I did 99% by myself until I needed 2 hands for just a couple of mins (and I have zero patience for this kind of stuff)! I loved that all the screws matched/you didn’t have 10,000 diff pieces of hardware you were trying to manage. The grease trap is the best design on the market! I will never go back to Blackstone and so far I could not be more pleased w this purchase!

Fantastic Value for the price. Every bit as good as a Blackstone. For people saying the cover is not waterproof - I'm betting they built it and covered it without seasoning it, and humidity alone could rust it without being seasoned. My cover blew off in a storm and the cook top was completely flooded with water but it still did not rust because we seasoned it immediately and use it regularly. We had one small bent piece - easily fixed when assembling. We are now the hibachi masters of the neighborhood!

Great griddle works perfectly having the grease in the middle of cooktop instead of the rear is a game changer. As with all griddles there are a few hot and cold spots but this is common across every gas griddle on the market. Only real negative I have found is the cover it blows off easy with light to moderate wind exposing cooktop to rain and the elements.

Great griddle! Got this for my birthday and made fajitas for her maiden voyage. Discovered some hot shots along the back half, but other than that, it cooked everything up great and has a large cooking surface. I'm excited to see what else I can do!

Great product for the money. We use it a lot but have a few things that we wished were different. 1) The griddle needs to be thicker to prevent "bowing" when it gets hot so liquid stays in place. 2) I wish the side tables folded down. We didn't have enough room so we didn't install one shelf. 3) I wish the cover went to the ground (or at least covered the bottom shelf and gas tank) so the items down there don't get dusty and the propane wasn't out in the sun. Overall, we are happy with our purchase.

The price on this griddle is just right but there are a few reasons I only give it 3 stars. Firstly, it lights inconsistently. Sometimes it lights first try, sometimes I give up after several attempts. It's gotten to the point where I currently light it manually through the hole in the side. I have purchased a battery operated igniter that I will use to replace the vastly inferior igniter it shipped with. The handles are flimsy. There were giant stickers on the shelves which had to be removed. It gets quite hot in the back as compared to the front. So it has seasoned quite nicely for the back 75% but the front 25% isn't seasoning as well. Time will tell. By the time I purchased the igniter and a hard cover I practically could have bought a Blackstone.
