Gas Grill w/VersaStand, Petite Gourmet, Portable, 5,500 BTU

After reading the conflicting reviews on this grill I decided to give it a try. I buy numerous items on Amazon and usually dont take the time to review them because I haven't had any problems and dont take the time for positive reviews. However after reading about the supposed fake reviews on this grill I am taking the time to review it. I was looking for a small, inexpensive portable grill to use on the sandbar with my wife and 3 kids when we take the boat out. This grill looked ideal as the legs can be extended to set it up in shallow water or shore without hauling an additional table. The grill arrived and the legs went on in under 5 minutes. I threw on a 2 year old propane bottle that was maybe 1/4 full. I burned off the new crud for 5 minutes and threw on several burgers and hot dogs to give it a try. The burgers were completely frozen. I left the grill on medium high and did the burgers 6 minutes a side. They were very well done and probably on the grill for too long. This is a small grill and 5 hamburgers and a couple hot dogs fill it up. the grill got very hot very quick and I had zero problems lighting it. Time will tell how it stands up to shore use but for a cheap very portable grill to throw some burgers, brats etc I believe its an excellent buy. As the one reviewer said its no 3 burner Weber but I think it will work great for the occassional use of camping, tailgating etc. UPDATE!! After using this grill on the sandbar all summer I still give it 5 stars. The grill lit easily every time, the legs dropped down and worked great in the shallow water without any issues. The grill will flare up if your cooking some really greasy burgers but with abundant water nearby I simply used the kids squirt gun to douse the flame. Grill cleaned up easily at the end of the season and I look forward to using it again next year. Having hot food after a day on the boat made our outings that much better.

I have never purchased a “used” item from Amazon but did so with this grill based on another review. It presented as brand new - I don’t think the box had even been opened! This is a great little grill! I did watch a video on how to set up and fold down the legs, but the explanation is spot on in the printed directions. I set it up, added a small propane bottle and used it immediately. The cook surface is small compared to a regular grill, but perfect for me alone. My food was great and the clean up was a breeze! I washed the grate in my sink and wiped out the inside of the grill with a dishcloth. This grill is perfect for an apartment deck and folds down easily for storage. I am happy with this purchase and definitely recommend this grill for anyone with limited space.

Prefect for apartment patio. Does the job but is a little wobbly. I dont think it worth more than $100 dollars so spending $150 is kinda steep! It’s easy to clean both the grill and the inside.

Can’t say enough great things about this grill. It fits perfectly on our tiny deck and cooks exceptionally well! I’m liking this even better than our larger grill downstairs. I’ve cooked chicken wings, fish and vegetables to perfection. We always use a black grill mat or copper mat and it works nicely with this grill. The drip pan is small, so barely had any grease collecting with this method. The inside of grill in nonstick and wipes clean with ease. Assembly took 10 minutes. Still practicing the folding legs as it is a little tricky, but well worth it. Lights on first press. Very light. Great quality and looks great! Highly recommend.

Please stay away from this grill!!!!! I was so excited to get this grill so we could take it camping with us. We carefully unboxed it, opened the directions and put the feet on exactly as it told us too. Next we extended the legs to the first point and that’s went things went from bad to worse. We pushed the button to extend the legs further and neither side would work. We pushed the buttons again and slightly pulled on the feet and the legs came flying out of the entire grill. It looks like the plastic stop caps have tabs but they were broken off. We tapped them back in even though they won’t keep the legs from falling out of the bottom. Now we’ve finally have both legs extended and stand it up. We haven’t used it yet but I don’t think it will work well if it’s windy outside. The legs are very wobbly and I wouldn’t trust walking even a little ways away from it for fear of it tipping over and starting a fire. I regret buying this and I haven’t even used it. I’ll go to a box store next time to see what I’m buying.

the grill is fine. the problem is we paid far more than we saw it locally at Ollies for a third of the price we paid on amazon. we'll need to shop around before purchasing from now on

The First Thing I noticed is I like the size of this unit. This is going in my RV and its going to be perfect for that. I took it out and noticed that its mostly preassembled just slide on the bottom feet and slip in the grill and your good to go. When extending the legs you shove the legs round end up into the base frame round hole (For the leg base peg). This secures the grill stand when extended. I found that this made the stand sturdy and could be picked up to move without the legs collapsing. I don't think I would try moving it when its hot. The Test, I used this on my deck to check out the performance. To measure the heat I used a detachable heat gauge off of my wood stove pipe. It has a magnet and I attached it to the lid. The grill fired right up, I set the temp to high. After a bit I checked the heat gauge and it was at 500f. I grilled some turkey burgers and they cooked just fine. I turned down the temp as it got a little too hot. The heat gauge read 350f on the low setting. I let the grill cool down and cleaned it up. The juices drip right on the burner, it doesn't look new anymore. I would say that if you grill fatty meat you may have a lot more cleanup. If cooking any fatty foods I would blanch (precook) the food to reduce some of the grease (Ribs) I was pleased at the grills performance and am satisfied this was the portable grill I was looking for. Update; The braces for the legs broke, I don't use the legs anymore. Grease has got inside the factory sealed knob control unit and it won't turn to on to spark/start unit without either warming up in the sun or jiggling it for extended periods of time. I've since started using a grill mat to keep most of the drippings away from the grills interior...

This little grill is absolutely phenomenal. I love using it. I have a little back patio with not a lot of room so it is absolutely perfect for the small space. When I'm done using it I can either leave it set up or collapse the entire grill and store it until next use. It's also fairly light. It probably weighs about 20 pounds or so and I'm a small woman and it's easy for me to transport. I have taken it to the beach and friends' houses without any transportation issues (I have a four door car). Also, the clean up is pretty easy. It's a little difficult to clean around the heating element but that's really the only hinderance. I use the pre-moistened kitchen wipes that are dual sided (smooth side and scrub side) and they work like a charm for the inside. The grate comes out easily too. You can just scrub anything that's really stuck off easily and then just put it in the dishwasher. It comes out perfectly clean. I really love the fact that you don't have to use a big gas cylinder. You can use the little green Coleman gas canisters which makes it even easier to transport. They last quite a while too. The cooking surface is not tiny either. There is plenty of room to grill a meal for 4 at one time. Loved it so much I ordered a second one for my boyfriend. :)

This product is unusable in Menorca. I have repeatedly responded to you requesting a return method other than by post Can you please adhere to my request as the return bbq boxed is tacking up space in my boot I could use for a better purpose I do not respond to threats surely it would be far better and responsible settle this dispute once and for all. I thank you.

Muy practico y muy suficiente para 4 personas

I bought this as a damaged box unit and I have had really good luck in the past with the damaged box items, this was in new condition but for someone had used it prior to returning it and didn't clean it so had a bit of a task cleaning the slobs fish pieces off the burner grate and sides but when i did behold just like a brand new unit worked first try and heats great, well worth the discount price I paid, about 1/2 price so just love it as it's just the right size for two of us here.

This BBQ is awesome with the telescoping legs. You can use it on the picnic table or standing. I love it and easy to clean. It has a lock so easy picking it up and transporting it. Definitely would recommend.

Overall, I'm utterly happy with this grill for its portability, telescopic stand, cooking quality and easy cleanning. The only reason I'm taking one star away is that feet lock mechanism is a permanent failure when it comes to extending the legs. Sometimes it takes way too long to set it up. And second issue is the ignition - it normally doesn't ignite from the first attempt. Update: be very careful when using the grill cleaning spray. If you get it on the painted cover, it causes discoloration or total removal of the paint in spots where cleaning solution remained longer than few minutes.
