Love it!

Cooks up food fast and just right. Does everything it's supposed to do. No complaints about its performance. The removable grate system works very well for cleaning. Not the best idea to use for marinating...the grate needs to heat up without the food on it first! I don't mind the feature, but it's... read full review »

Wow.  I read all the reviews and I must be doing something wrong.  After two uses, 2 of the removable grates caved in.  I would never try a steak on this grill because I haven't been able to cook hamburgers without burning them.  The grease from the hamburger drains onto the heat deflectors and then...

Awesome

This grill has greatly exceeded our expectations. It heats up nicely and cooks evenly and thoroughly without burning or charring. The quality of this grill is higher than any other grill we've ever owned, especially in this price range. We are extremely happy with our purchase and highly recommend it.

This is a great grill. I put it together in just 3 hours, all the parts were there. lots of illustrations to put it together. I grilled some shrimp and pineapple it grilled nice. Be sure and spray the grill with lots of grill spray or you will have a cleanup job cleaning the grill. Other than that I liked this grill.

The cover fits nicely around it. I'd recommend this grill.

It has been a year since we purchased this grill and this is my first review of it. The removeable grate system is intriguing, but not really all that practical. We haven't once used it as it was intended - the system is divided into three panels and we typically always cook on more than three panels.  In the past year, each of the three panels have bowed downward likely under the heat. 

We purchased the grill in early May 2009 and after the first weekend, the wind caught the Kenmore grill cover we also purchased and blew the entire grill, cover, propane tank, and accessories off the patio and...

Love it!

I bought this grill in the Fall of 09'.  I used it as much as I could before it got cold out.  Left it outside all winter with a cover on it and broke it out again a week ago.  It looks brand new and still cooks like a champ!  Love the grate system.  It is nice to be able to just lift the grates out with the food on them and take it directly to the table.  If you take a little time and put it together correctly you wont be disappointed with this grill.

I have waited over a year to write this review.  This grill is fantastic.  The best thing about it is that I purchased a 2 year warranty with the grill and I have only had to replace the grills once since I have had it.  The replacement service was very quick.   The grill burns between 600 and 700 degrees when turned on high.  This make for cooking filets on the warmer fantastic.  I have had no problems with any of the parts on the grill.  Quick tip: I have found if you do not cover the grill and it gets wet the ignition lighter will not work.   My last grill come from ***** and...

Great Grill, Terrible Grate

The three burner grill with the side burner was a huge step up for my family from the basic Kenmore we used to have.

We really liked the burners and the BTU is much better on this when compared to a two burner. Of course it is no Weber, but it does not cost as much either. So overall we are satisfied with the grill. The looks of course .. it looks clean and the lines are smooth. The stainless steel finish fits into any deck rather easily.

Now for the mud slinging - the grates are bad. It pretty much is useless. Almost any type of food you put on it - STICKS. It is a mess to cook and clean. While...

We got this grill for on sale and have used it for a whole summer. It's packed away now, I just wish it stayed warmer here so I could use it all year. It seems to cook evenly and I have loved everything about it...except the grates. They won't take a wire brush, it'll take off the weird enamal finish on them, so I have to wash them in the sink. I can put them in the dishwasher, and have, but it they got cleaner when I used a little elbow grease. The grates are nice in the fact that there are not wide spaces between them, so less-cohesive foods like hamburgers stay together a lot better. I just...

SUPER AWESOME GRILL!!!!!!!

This is the best grill we have ever had. It is built well and cooks great. We have had it for a year and still love it. I love the grilling surface; it is tough, heavy, sturdy, porcelain coated metal. We just bought another one for our son who is getting married. He loves it too! Pros: Everything Cons: None I give it an A+

Great Buy!

This is our first gas grill and it proves to be more than we needed. It performs very well, gets hot real quick and was realatively easy to put together. The only thing I don't like about this grill and the reason I didn't give it 5 stars is the grates on it. It's awesome that they can come out and what not, makes for easy cleaning, but the ceramic grates kind of suck. You don't get those nice grill markers like you would with a regular grate. That's the only down fall. All in all its a great grill for the price. I think it'll last us a long time.

This is basically a down to earth grill with a simple, ingenious system that will save you time and hassle.

Basically, instead of having separate dishes to marinate and serve your meat, you use the removeable grate of the grill!

There is a dish pan and cover that the grate fits right into.  You put your fixings on there and marinate for however long you want to.  Go heat up your grill, and voila! Use the special tool to place the grate with the marinated food right onto the grill for grilling!

Guess what!  Once the cooking's done, remove the grate and place it on the special tray and you have...

I bought this grill the day after Black Friday for a great price. i didn't read the reviews before i bought it but I'm glad i didnt because there seems to be an issue with the grates which I have not experienced my self. The grates are just new and i spray a non stick cooking spray on them before cooking and always clean them after Im done. One review mentioned problem's with constant burning of food, which sounds like an operator error to me. I was between this one and another one at ***** and choose the Sears model because it looks like a better quality grill. On weekends i cook 2 meals a day...
