Char-Broil Universal Fit 17' Bar Burner
Customer Ratings: 4 stars

This product is well made and has flexible pipes. However, it does not fit all grills. If you have one of the older $99 Charbroil grills from Lowes, you will find that more than likely the holes to insert the tubes will be too small. Others have complained about this. I made mine bigger with some tin snips, it mangled the holes but I got the tubes to go through.

Does seem to work fine despite not initially fitting through the holes.

I bought this CHARBROIL UNIVERSAL burner to replace the burner on my CHARBROIL grill. I guess when I bought it I believed "universal" to mean that it would replace all 17 inch burners...especially CHARBROIL ones, since it is the SAME COMPANY. I was wrong. The venturi pipe is too large to go through the hole in my grill. When I called Charbroil to discuss this with them, they told me that "universal" only means "most." Chances are, this will not fit your grill. Avoid it.

Best Deals for Char-Broil Universal Fit 17" Bar Burner

Mine is not a Char-Broil branded BBQ, so I had my doubts, however it was very easy to assembly and set and works splendid since the very first time. Took me less than 10 minutes since I open the package until I turned it on and only needed a phillips screwdriver. The gas pipes are flexible and can be adjusted in length and can be twisted to reach the gas valves. Only hope it lasts as long as the original burner.

Honest reviews on Char-Broil Universal Fit 17" Bar Burner

This most certainly is not "universal" as the advertising and the packaging state. I bought it for my bottom-of-the-line Char-Broil brand grill, so you'd think it would fit its own brand. But the nozzle collars at the end of the flexible tubing coming from the burner will not fit through the diameter of the holes at the bottom of the flame box in order to meet the gas feeder lines coming from below. Just barely so frustrating! Unfortunately, I mangled it too much trying to jerry-rig it to fit, so now I can't even return it. One of the few Amazon products I have purchased over the years that has been mis-represented.

My 1997 Char-Broil Model 4637633 worked well with this universal burner. The only problem I had was when I attached the igniter assembly to the center of the burner; the mounting holes in the new burner were too large for the #6 pan head screws provided. I substituted some #8 screws I had in stock and the problem was solved.

Burner works well. It does look a bit on the cheap side but certainly was worth the $16 price. Sure there is a 3 year warranty but who is going to pay $10 for shipping these to the factory for warranty service? My old burner (same exact style) lasted about 3 years.

Note that there was a less expensive option available (about $11) for people who didn't feel they needed to replace their flexible venturi tubes. My old tubes were in great shape so I opted to take them off and save for some future day. Unfortunately, although the tubes were in good shape, I found on my old burner that the essential high temperature gaskets between the tubes and the burner were both broken and might not have been gas-tight if I'd been planning to reuse them. My advice is to spend the extra $5 and get the complete $16 replacement kit like I did on this purchase.

This burner head was a perfect fit for my Fiesta Grill # EZA30030.

I had measured the old one in all it dimensions, and this was seemed

to be the right one. It came fast and was an easy install, it fit like a glove.

It seems to be quite well made, the old one lasted 9 years.

Once I got it all installed, I was able to use the small adjustable end

collars, where the gas valve nipple comes into each feed pipe, behind the

control knob panel. I loosened the screw and turned them each way

a little bit, while observing the flame from below with the grill cover closed.

On both sides, a slightly larger opening was optimum, so that a bit more air

entered and mixed with the incoming gas to create a nice flame. It was easy.

Get another adult set of hand for the install and keep the kids away.

Again, if your measurements are correct, from your old one to this one and

the model numbers match, I think this will work for lots of grill and get the burner

running optimum again, saving gas and giving a great & controllable grill flame.

Thanks,

William

The venturis were about an inch too short for the 34545 model there are several subseries of this model but if you have just the 34545 then it is too short.

Hibachi

I have not been able to find a Hibachi in SE Washington State for the past 3 years. An online search took me to Amazon.com and this Hibachi. It is good quality and the out dated complaint about the painted handles has been corrected. The only problem I had was the left cooking grid was not very stable in the grid support. I sent an email to info@KayHomeProducts.com on Monday evening. Tuesday morning I had an email response from Cathy advising she was shipping me a replacement left cooking grid. I received it in Saturday's mail. Because of the product quality and outstanding customer service I have ordered a 2nd Hibachi to use when we have company and need more cooking service.

I bought this Hibachi about 2.5 months ago.

here is what I found.

A Hibachi is for SMALL jobs.Kabobs,steak chunks,a chicken breast,

1 hamburger per side.

as it doesn't have sides or a top to trap the heat in, what you cook must be small enough to cook fast,as to save the heat.

I have tried a porterhouse and it was just too large.

dont get me wrong, it got cooked well enough( nice med rare )but was too cool on the sides.

This is a great grill,for the right things.

small cuts of meat.

and thats what it dies best.

Best Deals for Marsh Allen 30052 Cast Iron Hibachi 10 by 18-Inch Charcoal Grill

Packaged with four left legs (requires two left, two right)

One briquette grate is smaller than the other and falls to bottom as a result.

Had to drill / elongate hole to install grate support bracket

Paint on handles started to run when I handled them with wet hands. I tried to rinse off the remaining paint or ink under running water so that it will not continue to bleed off. What paint do you know of that rinses off under plain water?

Right cast iron grate cracked when it came in contact with heat.

The design and construction of this product shows clear disregard for the consumer and is absolutely unacceptable at any price. I have to question at this point weather or not the paint used on the grill and grates is toxic or lead based. I've come across my share of junk but this is really bad!

Honest reviews on Marsh Allen 30052 Cast Iron Hibachi 10 by 18-Inch Charcoal Grill

If you are considering purchasing this hibachi, DON'T! It is shoddy and the "cast iron" it is supposedly constructed of is really what is known in the trade as "pig iron". Extremely brittle, and becomes more so as you subject it to heat. One of the grill brackets broke when I set the grill into it for the first time after putting it together. It is actually spray painted black to give the appearance of real cast iron but is actually so full of alloys and contaminants it is really the color of aluminum. Do you wonder why it is so cheap to purchase??? If you really feel like literally throwing away you money, do buy this item. A much better product is the LODGE hibachi...YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR.

We like the size and convenience of a hibachi grill for grilling meals for the two of us. The only thing we could find locally was a light weight sheet metal grill that was quite flimsy. This is a solid cast iron grill that should last many years. The racks fit well into the supports for a three level cooking option. We are quite pleased with this purchase. All of the parts were in the box, and assembly was easy.

If I had to find a flaw, some of the cast iron parts could have been trimmed a little better for a neater appearance, but there were no sharp edges.

I got a couple of these for the cost of S/H with coupons from Raichlen's books, so I cannot complain about the price. But I opened the lid of the smoker to check the temperature, inserted the thermometer, turned to quickly answer a friend's question about the barn and when I turned back to the grill, the plastic on the thermometer had bubbled and melted all over poor Steven's face.

We bought this grill in June of 2011. Four months later in October of 2011, the grate began to show signs of rust. It is now rusted to the point that it looks disgusting and is embarrassing when we have friends over for a cookout. I have sent pictures to the store where we bought it and they forwarded them on to the manufacturer, Cal-Spa. The store called me back today and said Cal-Spa's engineer said we were cleaning it with the wrong wire brush.(give me a break!!!) I bought the grill scrubbing brush at Lowes and have used it on nothing but this grill. I proceeded to call the manufacturer myself. The first call, I was disconnected after they had me on hold for five minutes. The second call, again on hold for 5-10 minutes, then the girl came back and told me the engineer had worked there a long time and he said the grates would not be covered under warranty because WE had done something wrong! He also said their grates would not rust! BUYER BEWARE! I wish I would have seen someone else's review before purchasing. I do realize that sometimes things just go wrong with a product, and that's where a warranty comes in. NOT WITH THIS MANUFACTURER. WARRANTY DOES NOT EXIST!!! I have been told by the on line store where I bought this grill that they have many complaints concerning this manufacturer. AGAIN...BUYER BEWARE!!!

I have an older Bull 4 burner Angus whose original brass burners finally bit the dust. I was wanting to replace the burners with the stainless steel replacement burners which I believe come with a 20 year warranty. The problem was that they are extremely expensive. I ran across these iron burners and decided to pay much less (all four iron burners cost me the same as one stainless steel burner would have) so I decided to order them and plan on simply replacing them more often. My concern was that when I received the product, that I would find that they would be light weight since it's sometimes difficult to make a judgement by the photo. That was not the case! I received the shipment and when I lifted the box, I was pleasantly surprised because it was a substantial weight. When I unwrapped the first one, I was smiling because it was not cheaply made and felt like it should stand up long enough to make my decision on purchasing these a good one. They fit perfectly. NOTE: Don't forget to remove the adjustable sleeve for regulating the air intake off the old burners before you toss them. Also make a mental note as to how much of the hole is opened before removing them from the old burners. So far, they work beautifully. If I run into any problems, I will add to this post.

I have an 11 year old BBQ's Galore Captain Cook 4 burner unit. The BBQ as a whole is in good shape except that the burners were all rusted out. I called the BBQ Galore dealer about new burners. He told me the cast iron burners were obsolete and I would have to buy Stainless Steel at about $80 x 4 burners. For that amount I was ready to pitch this unit and head for Costco or HomeDumpo for a new BBQ. When I found these on Amazon I was skeptical. It seemed to good to be true...BUT IT IS!!!!!!!

I would have gladly purchased this item locally for twice the price but it was not available locally. I would have had to spend a 3 hrs travel time to a Bar B Q Galore store on a Sunday to get this item. When I learned that I could order the exact item that I needed online for half the price I jumped on it. I had the model #, but the detailed drawing to size helped me feel comfortable that that I was ordering the exact right piece. I did follow the original instructions and " cure" the burners with vegetable oil a couple of times, this helps prevent rust, and will make the burners last longer. Unfortunately I still have trouble with reducing the gas to low.Perhaps I need to work with it a bit more. But they definitely work very well, and I tossed the broken rusted ones, I am getting even heat distribution, across the whole grill, which was one of my big problems. It is a nice grill and I want to keep it in great shape for along time. Received brand new product in a matter of days, excellent shape, great price, it saved me wasting a Sunday and driving for 3 hours, I would do it again.
