For years I wanted a barbeque we could use on our small 3rd story deck. The only thing available were the sort of low quality products you should expect to buy a new one of every year.

Finally Char-Broil has filled the bill. The materials and construction quality are below those of a large high-end grill but far above comparably sized products. The cast iron cooking surface is of a high quality and the thermostat is a nice bonus.

Cons: This is a gas grill made to work for charcoal. No effort is made to conceal or alter the holes for the gas element that is not included. There was no attempt to engineer a solution to grease runoff. Without modification by the owner grease tends to run out the back down the legs and onto whatever it's sitting on.

I purchased the Char-Broil "CB collection" Grill. It is heavy-duty. After I did a few changes it is perfect for what I was looking for. Number one to me a good charcoal grill is when you close all the vents the fire should go out and pretty quick. This grill as sold will not do that, first theres two holes where a rotisserie goes, then theres the vent hole in the bottom with no cover or regulating devise on it, so i made covers for the rotisserie holes and a turning cover for the bottom vent.Then theres the slide out ash tray with air leaks on both sides and top so i made a cover for it.When i close my grill with all vents closed the fire will go out. I think another improvement would be a little heavier duty charcoal tray this one moves around and small pieces fall through maybe a tray with holes instead of small wire frame? Maybe a nice slide vent in the bottom like the ones in the top? I looked at a lot of small grills and for the money this ones the best in my opinion.

The assembly was a little more than I expected, thus once I opened it, It sat in the box for two weeks. It probably takes about 30 minutes to put together, but its still a pain. Once built it was a quality grill and brought it to many a tailgates and beach trips. I beat the hell out of hit and it only needed a couple screw tightenings, but it is generally good quality and still continues to serve me well.

Honest reviews on Char-Broil "CB Collection" Table Top Grill

Pretty Good Grill. Well made, solid materials, assembly went well. Adjustable firebox height is a good feature, but the adjustment handles are tricky as it swings and came off the catches once until I got used to it. One shortcoming is that grease released during cooking gathers around the edges. If the grill was slightly sloped to the center (as in some grills) this would not happen. Also, it does not seal up well when you are done, which saves the charcoal for next time better. I covered the openings in the cover with foil and wedged the bottom drawer up tight against the base and that seems to help. I'm still getting used to it, but I am pretty happy with the purchase.

I have almost all the types of BBQ's a man could want, I have no problems with this little guy. I use this BBQ for camping in our RV. I covered the two side holes with aluminum foil to control the inside temperature better. This baby cooks like a charm. I really, really like it. The only problem I have was that the air vent controls become very hot and hard to move when cooking. Other than that it's a winner.
