$480Approx. MSRP
Great foreasy to learnlow-and-slow smokingset-and-forget cooks

Suited to patio, small-space, or car-camping-with-power use — not for backcountry camping without electricity.

Pros

  • Compact footprint that fits tighter spaces than most portable competitors
  • Durable build quality for a portable unit
  • Solid cooking performance praised across most reviews
  • Solid all-rounder for its class

Watch-outs

  • Heavier than most 'portable' grills, undercutting true portability
  • Electrical dependency rules out remote/off-grid camping use
  • Occasional grease flare-ups reported if the drip tray isn't seated correctly
  • No app control at this price

Known niggles

  • No carry handle makes moving the roughly 60 lb unit awkward
  • Right-side latch gets very hot during use; gloves recommended
  • Requires a 120V outlet, limiting use at sites without power
