This little smoker has been the best grill I’ve ever owned, and I’ve spent over $3,000 on smokers before. For $83, I got four solid years out of it, only having to replace the grates once. It’s the perfect size for a small family (2-4 people), and despite its compact footprint, it feels big enough to handle four steaks at a time or even a small turkey. One of its biggest strengths is efficiency—you don’t waste charcoal, which makes it great for everyday grilling without burning through fuel. The only real design flaw is the placement of the wheels on the non-shelf side, making it awkward to move. But beyond that, it has been a reliable, sturdy, and surprisingly durable smoker. I’ve got one more summer left in it, but my wife wants a new one. Honestly, I’ll miss this thing. If you’re looking for an affordable smoker that punches well above its price tag, this is it.

This little grill is just the ticket for my small patio and small grilling needs. It is attractive, very well built, and easy to use. As almost everyone else has mentioned, the instructions are sketchy and the pictures are too dark to be of use, but the item is not overly difficult to put together. I'm an arthritic seventy-year-old lady with no special training in mechanics, and it took me about an hour... At any rate, here's what I learned during assembly of the grill: 1. Pay attention to the angle of the holes in the curved leg pieces which will receive the bolts which will hold the grill in place. They should angle upwards toward the grill. I had to disassemble and reassemble the leg pieces because they didn't mention that in the instructions. 2. You will receive and really only need three locking nuts. I used the first pair as first mentioned in the directions, and the last one on the drawer lock, as it seemed obvious that that piece would be turned whenever the drawer is opened, and would thus be in danger of loosening the bolt. The several other instructions that mentioned the locking nuts I simply ignored. The grill is holding together fine after some use, so I guess they were unneeded. Maybe. 3. You'll need a drill or nail and hammer to make starter holes to attach the utensil hooks to the wood shelf, as the hooks do not have self-starting tips. Attaching those hooks is not even mentioned in the instructions, nor do they show in the pictures, but they are nice to have. All in all, this is a nice unit, and I expect it to last a long time. Good deal!

I assembled it on my own, easy to do, took around 90 minutes. Having 2 people would have helped. The actual BBQ is eavyweight material, very substantial, good quality. My complaint is that they could have easily put hooks on the sides and underneath the wooden shelf to hang things on, like utensils and gloves. That would have cost them pennies but instead there is nowhere to hang anything. That's an oversight. I really like the pullout drawer for the charcoal and ash, that makes it so much easier to light the BBQ and clean it out afterwards ... genius! I also ordered the matching cover which I would recommend you do. In terms of capacity, it will cook 6 large burgers or 4 chicken breasts, you get the idea.

Funziona perfettamente

Es una maravilla, en mi caso venía montada porque era la de exposición , muy bien material, las parrillas son de hierro y muy fuertes no de acero inoxidable que normalmente se oxida, El Cajon para sacar el carbón es muy útil, la mejor que he tenido con muchísima diferencia y el hecho de cerrar la tapa es otra dimensión , todo queda súper jugoso y mas ahumado , un 10.

I noticed a lot of reviews by people stating that the paint started to peel after first use. I'm pretty sure that NO ONE would've had this problem if they REMEMBERed TO SEASON THE BBQ THOROUGHLY WITH VEGETABLE OIL BEFORE FIRST USE. The pictures you are seeing is the condition after my 5TH USE!!! This is truly a magnificent piece of kit once you know how to look after it. I can actually see this being around and in tip top condition for many years to come. Other than the fact I just need to master getting it to hot enough temperature this thing barbecues and smokes the food tremendously to the point my kebabs, chicken and brisket came out tasting identical IF NOT BETTER THAN SOME OF THE RESTAURANTS I HAVE VISITED. Will definitely save a ton of money on takeaway and restaurant visits. Hands down my best purchase in years!!!

This is the best charcoal barbecue I have used. It is almost impossible to burn food, closing vents means you slow cook and slightly steam everything. Charcoal tray means cleaning is really easy. Highly recommended.
