Have had this grill for about a week now and have cooked on it 3 times so far. So far so good. Grilled burgers, hot dogs and steak and fish so far. Everything has come out great. The grill seems to heat up nicely for us. It was not too bad to put together, but did take longer than the 50 minutes the directions estimate. It looks nice and has plenty of grilling space. I would recommend buying the cover that they have matched with this grill. It is a nice cover and has straps that snap around the wheels of the cart to help the cover stay on, which was always a problem with prior grill covers. If anything changes about my opionion of the grill, I will update at as we grill more. As with all things, you have to put things in perspective. Is this the quality of a Weber? No, probably not. But it is half the price of a Weber. I didn't want to shell out $800 plus dollars for a grill, so I was looking for something more in the midpriced range that is still nice. So far this fits the bill for me at this price point.

I like to grill out as much as possible in the summer, but my old bbq was falling apart. My brother noticed that I needed a grill upgrade, so he bought me this Dyna-Glo grill for my birthday. What an awesome present!The instructions were easy to follow, so it was not difficult to assemble.
This is the best grill I have owned, and it has plenty of btus and heats up great for searing meat. I also like the size, since I like to cook for a lot of people, and I like all of the stainless steel.
Over the last 3 weeks since I got it, I've tried several recipes. I made a cedar plank salmon recipe that my wife loved. I made really good beer can chickens. I also made some bacon wrapped stuffed jalapeños that were so good, even though I burned the first batch (I forgot to turn the left side down to medium and it got too hot). My bad. Fortunately, I had prepped a lot of extras and when I turned the heat down a little, they were great.
But the best was the night that we did huge Porterhouse steaks. I seared them on high perfectly on the outside, and they were a juicy medium rare on the inside, even better than the steakhouse down the street (and so much cheaper). They were so good.
I am very happy with this grill.
Best Deals for Dyna-Glo DGE486SSP-D 4-Burner 52,000 BTU Propane Gas Grill
I just bought this from Samsclub same product code. Everything came together seamlessly. Directions could have been a little bit more informative but I figured everything out jsut fine.First things first, this grill heats up fast. I don't know about the other reviewers but I was able to get it to about 550 degrees within 7-10 minutes. Heat seems to be even and grilled the chicken breast very well.
Couple complaints: There is about 2" opening in the back that allows lot of the air out when you close the cover. This forces the grill to stay around 525 -550 degree range and won't heat up anymore. This temp is fine for most things but for nice, thick steaks, I'd like it more int the 650-700 range. I can get some aluminum foil to block the opening and that does the trick.
Also, couple of the nuts and bolts that were already installed in box weren't tight and popped off. I had to re-tighten some of the nuts and bolts but they are staying put now.
Overall, very nice grill that grills 90% of items perfectly. For steaks, little modification may be required. Weighing the price vs performance, I recommend it to anybody that is not a Weber snob.
Honest reviews on Dyna-Glo DGE486SSP-D 4-Burner 52,000 BTU Propane Gas Grill
This is really a slick grill!! Almost all shiny stainless steel including the heavy SS grates.The only drawback since I've had it (30 days) is that there is (was) a 3" opening across the back when the cover is (was) closed, which made it difficult to get the grill up to 500 degrees with all 4 burners on high. Other reviews have mentioned the same. Easily remedied by going to my local glass shop & getting a 3"x26" piece of storefront aluminum & screwing it to the back to close this gap. I had to use a 3/16" masonry bit to get through the porcelain coated steel back & then a bit for hardened steel to complete the holes. It also required a slight bending, by hand, of the aluminum toward the cooking compartment to clear the cover when it opens. Now I have to turn the burners down or it will heat up to 650-700 degrees in no time. It has cooked everything just fine & with more control over the heat settings now that the aluminum plate was installed.
The bottom of the cooking compartment is a slide out tray which I covered with heavy duty aluminum foil to make cleaning that area easier. The slide out platform for the propane tank is a great feature. You don't have to sit on the ground or get on your knees anymore to change out tanks. The shiny stainless steel will scratch easily when sharp metal objects are moved across it so just be careful. Also, there are a couple of sharp corners on the back that tore my cover the first time when I didn't carefully remove it. For $400 this is an outstanding grill for a guy just grilling for the family & I use it just about every day. I ended up buying this from Walmart, but it was the same price at Amazon, because if I had to return it I wanted to be able to return it to the store without having to repack it & ship it back and there is a ton of repacking material. It's easy to put together once you have removed all the packing a sorted out the pieces. This grill replaced a Tuscany Altima grill I bought at Costco 7 years ago. It had more features, that I didn't use, & less stainless steel for about the same price.
