Baron 590 Pro Shadow

A five-burner mid-tier Baron cart grill with a cast aluminum cookbox and 8mm solid stainless steel cooking grids.

$1,299Approx. MSRP

A good value step below the Regal Pro line for someone willing to do basic grate maintenance; skip it if you want a low-maintenance grill you can ignore between cooks.

Pros

  • Owners frequently praise how evenly the Baron holds heat across the cooking surface compared to other gas grills
  • Cooks fast and sears well, good for steaks and high-heat cooking
  • Big cooking capacity for the price point relative to the Regal line
  • Loads of cooking room — 780 sq in feeds a crowd
  • Serious heat (45,000 BTU) — sears fast

Watch-outs

  • Rust resistance is inconsistent; owners who don't season grates and clean regularly report faster corrosion
  • Cast iron grates need active maintenance (oiling/seasoning) or they rust within a season
  • Mid-tier warranty coverage on general parts
  • Heavy (190 lb) — pick its spot and leave it

Known niggles

  • Rust on the bottom of the grill and on grates reported by some owners even with a cover, in one case within the first two summers
  • Heat deflectors with holes cut in them reported as a design flaw that lets grease drip unevenly
  • Grates not holding seasoning well due to high, uneven heat, per some owners
