use common sense
By common sense
Alright. This grill gets 4 stars. Easy.Everyone is all bent out of shape for it seems the same issues:1)they broke the screws or handles or something when they put it together.2)they cant get it hot enough, or the grill rack itself doesn't get hot enough to sear something.3)the flame goes out when it's windy.Well here's what I have to say, and I've been a chef for 30 years. Take it for what it's worth:If you spend $30 and are expecting a mind blowing, life changing, best product on the market grill, you're an idiot.This grill heats up fine and very fast. It gets hot to do all sorts of things- I've even done 10lb pork shoulders, whole chickens, and giant roasts that I've shredded for tacos and enchiladas. Sure it takes 2 propane containers but chilling on the beach while things cook away is money in my mind. Check it every 45 minutes.The grill rack itself is flimsy- not thick iron like a professional piece of equipment, so you need to learn how to get it to its hottest point and then sear things quickly and simply. The point is that it won't retain heat once you put something on it, so common sense says raise the temp of the food item you're going to put on it so the change in temp of the grill rack is minimized and the sear is stronger. Don't put a cold burger patty on it. Pull it out of your cooler early. It's not rocket science, it's freaking food people.All in all, this is a fantastic grill for your $30. It actually has higher btu output than the Weber go anywhere grill for half the price.Learn how to use it (even putting soaked wood chips in the bottom or lava rocks, pot liquor from your collards to steam, wood chunks, etc.)and it will be the best grill you've EVER had. Sure beats plenty of grills I've tailgated with or friends' on the beach. I've had mine for 7 years and the thing is a work of art still.Oh, and if a screw breaks? Go to the hardwear store and buy a new screw for $.30. Stop crying about the grill. It's not the grill, it's your lack of common sense.

Cheap and disposable
By Stefan
I've had this BBQ for over 3 years and use it almost every week to drag it to beaches, camping etc. It's very portable and gets the job done. I've cooked chicken, pork, hotlinks, corn and just about anything you can think of on it just fine.It does go out on occasion when it's very windy, but you just light it back up. There's one trick that I find helps a lot, I wrap the grille in special BBQ aluminum foil (that has holes in it). It seems to make the grill more efficient -- and also, I've never cleaned it since I just put new aluminum foil every time I use it.I love this grill and have recommended it to many friends -- it's cheap and has a perfect form factor. You can even put your gas tank, tongs, lighter and other accessories into the grill while you're carrying it to the beach -- awesome!

By Leslie Curtis
We do a lot of "camping" at stock car racing events, and for years have used a worn-out cast iron hibachi to grill the burgers and dogs. While burning charcoal on the old hibachi always succeeded in getting us fed, it was long overdue for replacement.
We decided to upgrade to a portable gas grill, and this is the model we bought. It has truly been night and day from the hibachi!
Just the fact that it has a lid was a huge improvement! And what a concept to not have to wait for the coals to burn down, only to fight to keep the fire consistent. The grilltop is not only larger than the hibachi's, but much more stable than the 2 "paddle" style tops the hibachi used.
Overall, I am very pleased that we replaced the hibachi with this grill - for the price, it can't be beat as a portable grill!
