BUGG Portable 2-Burner

Compact 2-burner portable gas grill with a fold-away stand, 228 sq in of cooking area, and 20,000 BTU output.

$390Approx. MSRP

Fine as a compact, budget-friendly grill for a beginner with limited outdoor space, but expect small parts like gaskets, wheels and handles to need replacing within a few years, and don't rely on it for low-and-slow roasting.

Pros

  • Smallest, most portable BeefEater — good for balconies, small patios or apartments
  • Reasonably fast heat-up for a compact 2-burner unit
  • Optional cart available for those who want it on wheels
  • Lower price point than the built-in/Signature ranges
  • Easy on the wallet ($390)

Watch-outs

  • Small hardware — gaskets, knobs, wheel bolts, handles — has a track record of wearing out or failing early
  • Difficult to hold low temperatures (below about 250°C) for roasting
  • Control knobs are positioned at the rear, forcing an awkward reach past hot surfaces to adjust
  • Rated only around 3/5 by owners on average across dozens of reviews

Known niggles

  • The rubber gasket/seal around the hood edge has fallen off within days to weeks on some units
  • Powder-coat finish around the hotplate edge and the chrome handle has bubbled and peeled for some owners
  • Rust has developed on the chrome shelf/base within about 3 years, a known recurring issue
  • Wheels/casters have fallen off the trolley due to incorrect bolts
