Pros & cons! It's not a Weber the grill is super heavy cast iron. Cant add charcoal without removing the grill. Other than that it's real nice to grill on cast iron grill gets seasoned add a wonderful flavor everything else feels like my Weber definitely worth the $$ for a backup grill.

Used it for the very 1st time and the clips holding the cast iron grate bent and the grate fell in with all the food. The heat is making the clips soft and they bend. I was able to straighten it and luckily it did not brake. I will like to return it because if the clips brake then I'm done and no way to fix it. Very disappointed.

Very spacious and well built. The cast iron grate is phenomenal, only con is it is heavy so you will need to buy a hook to pick it up easily. Other than that flaw the grill is perfect in every way. Nice that it has a hook to hang the lid while you are cooking too!

It was fairly simple to put together. Looks similar to other well known brand. Only problem is the tabs that hold the cooking grill and really flimsy. They've already bent twice on me. I'm almost certain one will break soon after repeated use. May return. Cooks well, just need to fix that problem. I wouldn't mind if Sams sent me an upgraded version.

Cast Iron Grill + The Ash Catcher are what makes this BBQ superior to the Weber! The only flaw that I can ascertain is that the manufacturer did not produce the cast iron grill with iron handles; it would be easier to pick up the iron grill grate with iron side handles rather than picking it up by sticking your fingers in the grill grate holes. AWESOME BBQ!

I bought this grill last month. Very strong except for the grate holders. They seem like they will fail very shortly. The major flaw though is airflow. The Weber has 3, 5"-6" long air holas at the bottom, where this grill has 4, 1-1/4 " holes in the bottom. Even with it wide open, charcoal never stays lit or burns to dust. Solution I found to this was drilling 8 more 1/2" holes in the bottom increasing airflow to the bottom. Other than what I have already mentioned, great, nice looking grill. Worth the money.

I bought the grill on-line and received it with several missing pieces of hardware (nuts and screws) and it also had a severe blemish that was raised, unfinished metal filings that actually cut my hand. Sent an email about the problem and never heard back.

I've had the grill about a month and have used it over a dozen times. The quality is pretty good and it hold heat well. The cast iron grill (cooking surface) is great! Just remember to treat it like your cast iron pans. Season it and keep it oiled to prevent rust. The only issues that I have with the grill are. 1. There is no tool/accessory to help you lift and place the grill on the hot coals. The grill is heavy and difficult to place on the kettle when the coals are hot. I use the lowering handle/hook for my turkey fryer to lift and lower the cast iron grill on the kettle. It works pretty good. 2. The ash can is pretty cheaply built and mounted. There is no ash collector tool (like on a Weber). You have to manually push/sweep the ash into the lower vent holes. It's a bit of a mess. Like I said it's a pretty good grill for the money with only a couple of minor issues.

Grill is very fragile, I ordered for store pickup and once I put together the grill, the grill was not able to close due to damage, the inside tabs that hold the grill are cheap and barely hold the grate for the food, got water on cooking surface and already rust within one day of having, very cheap and poorly made.. I knew for the price it would be cheap but I expected the grill to at least shut

Overall easy to put together. I have yet to use it but will tomorrow. I seasoned the grill when I did the chemical burn out, hope it works. I mainly purchased it so I can fit a whole rack of ribs w/o stacking and rotating half racks. I will be purchasing another grill top so I can smoke.
