The package was delivered with massive holes and styrofoam/parts hanging out. While unpacking it, I found deep scratches which will end up rusting if it's not repaired. Once I put it together, I found a massive dent in the front which keeps the drip tray from seating properly and lots of white mold along the backside of the griddle. As far as how well it functions, will stay a mystery. I'm returning it to see what Sam's will do to make things right.

A massive cooking surface to grill vegetables, shrimp, fish, etc. This thing is amazing. It does require a 20# propane tank rather than the traditional 15# tank, so you will have to buy one and get it filled at a propane vendor rather than do the cylinder exchange. Nice casters to roll it around the patio. The surface is extremely heavy, so I don't think I want to move it too much, but it is the perfect addition to a traditional grill so you can cook all your sides or things too messy on a grill. The cover is not tight and does not have form fitting velcro or a drawstring to keep it on in the wind. I just got a bungee cord to keep it covered when not in use and to prevent the wind from blowing it off.

The griddle itself is great! I’ve had it for about a month now and everything I cooked on it was perfect! The only complaint I have is the cover. It blows off very easily and then rain gets on the griddle surface, causing rust. I just had to get rid of the rust with some course salt and releasing the griddle because of a little drizzle we had last night.

Ill be honest, I asked my wife to pick us up a BlackStone from Sams and she came back with this thing. I wasn't happy about it but decided to give it a shot. The assembly gave me a little trouble when I tried to place the actual cast iron top into the four holes. It wasn't a perfect fit and took some pressure to get it all straight. Also one of my screws for the legs were a little stripped. However, once I got those things fixed..it was in place and been great ever since. Whoever designed the placement of the grease trap and hole location gets a big high five from me! Its so easy to use the scraper that comes with the grill to remove excess grease or even food particles down the shoot into the grease drawer. The drawer is very conveniently located on the front for easy removal. This thing is huge and has allowed for us to cook up to 3 or 4 things at a time. its been great for eggs, burgers, potatoes, onions... you name it. I'll also mention... be careful when using the side trays to place plates or anything that you dont want to catch fire... that is a major hot zone! So, needless to say my wife made a great decision and picked this guy up. We love it. If assembly were a little better it would have received 5 stars from me.

This griddle is as good as the Blackstone I previously owned. I gave my smaller 2 burner Blackstone away bc I needed a larger cooking surface area. This Griddle is as good as Blackstone at half the price. Comes with a nice cover and cleaning tool as well. 100% recommend this product

good, pretty and cheap

Just bought this griddle a few days ago and I haven’t cooked on it but I did get it seasoned but when I was doing this process I noticed the griddle top started to bow in the middle. It’s a decent size bow just above the igniter burner. I just know that it’s gonna take more time to clean and all the oil I’ll use to cook with all runs into that one spot. But other that it’s a nice good size griddle.

Griddle is nice, relatively easy to assemble. I like that it comes with a cover but wish it was longer so that it at least covered the shelf below so dust and debris wouldn't get blown on it sitting outdoors. Honestly my main gripe was the giant advertising "stickers" they put on both side worktables. They were attached with some sort of sticky glue that doesn't come off when you remove the sticker and remains extremely sticky and messy. I spent over an hour and used up most of a bottle of goo be gone and a scraper trying to remove the glue residue. I got most of it off, but seriously those are unnecessary and even if they were they didn't need to be applied with something that wouldn't remove easily.

The griddle works great. The only problem I have is that the cover is cheap. I have had the griddle for about 2 years, and the cover got so much UV damage that it started to split after 1-1/2 years, and the griddle got rusty. I have been trying to find a replacement cover, but can't seem to find one anywhere.

It is pretty good. It wasn’t expensive but I do have a burner that doesn’t start up super easily. I’m sure if I messed with it I could get it working properly but I’m not super interested in putting any work in on a new grill. If I find out I messed up I’ll update review.
