The unit is well built and solid. Assembly was time consuming, but not particularly difficult, although, you're going to need a second person to help lift the pre-assembled grill box onto the base. However, the unit doesn't seem to get as hot as the manufacturer claims it is capable of. The manual says that the flames from the burners should be blue/yellow, 1"-2" on high. On high, my flames are blue, but only about 1/2"-3/4" high. The manufacturer claims that the unit can reach temperatures that exceed 650 degrees, but, after running it on high for more than 30 minutes, the hottest it got was 550. I've performed the regulator reset procedure (something I'd never had to do in more than 40 years of owning propane grills) 4 or 5 times, and I switched to a full propane tank, but, there's been no change. I have to cook everything on "high" and I have to pre-heat it for a longer period and cook the food for longer times . I don't know if there's something wrong with my unit, or if this is just the way this model performs, but, it's disappointing that such a well built unit isn't performing at a higher level.

It only took me about an hour or so to put together. I only needed a second person for like two minutes. I have no idea how all these people took so long to put this together.. No problem with gas, everything has worked fine. I usually only use 3 burners and it's always over 450 degrees on high. If you need to cook a steak at 700 degrees you have a problem. I get nice medium to medium rare steak with grill marks no problem. I don't know why you need to "char" it. I just cooked prime rib burgers tonight perfectly and they had those nice criss cross grate marks. The aluminum box wipes off very easily to keep clean. They only complaint so far it actually feels light to me. I might put some weights in the bottom. We'll see how it holds up in the long run.

Leave the box in your pickup and use a razor knife to fold the four sides of the cardboard box down to reveal the grill firebox. It is heavy and you will need to roll it onto its back and then set it onto the base soon. Be careful not to damage the enamel coating of these large parts during unpackaging. You will need to find the four caster wheels to begin assembly. You will start with the larger bolts to assemble the base cabinet and the side shelves. If you carefully align the sides of the cabinet base it will improve the final fit. Use a screwdriver. Go ahead and attach the ground lead under one of the screws while attaching the igniter module to the side. Be careful to not overtighten the wire rack that holds the drip pan. Overtightening will peak and chip the enamel coating. Save a couple wire ties to manage your grill wires later. Add 1 inch washers to the top two bolts on both of the side shelves to prevent bending damage if a shelf is ever overloaded. This is a weakness. Take care not to overtighten the plastic bezel for the side burner or the 6 plastic knobs. Take your time aligning and threading the 2 small bolts into the side burner controller. Get it bent straight into place so you can see your holes before you begin trying to thread these small bolts. Attach the wires to the back of the igniter switch before you push the switch all the way in. It will be a tight fit against the gas line and you may need to use both your thumbs to bend the line away from the back of the switch to allow it room. Do not bend the front face of the shelf. The cabinet doors are nice and they are held closed by magnets, but I had to place 2 small washers under the hinge of one of my doors to align them. Use the matchstick holder to push the top hinge pin out of the hole if you need to remove a door. You have chosen wisely. Enjoy!

Solid grill! Couldn’t find anything close for the same price.

Very happy with this grill, so far.

Great so far - Cooks evenly

Pro feel to the grill. Very nice finish.

I love this grill there is no hot or cold spots, it cooks evenly across all burners.

Even though it took a little longer than expected to assemble, the grill works great.

Good quality worth the money.
