Nexgrill 720-0744A 5 Burner Party Grill with 1-Piece Cooking Review

Customer Ratings:

This grill cooks hot dogs, sausages, hamburgers, and skirt steak wonderfully. It's fast and I can get hot food to my guests really quickly (and be able to sit down and join them while the food's still hot, which is a nice change). Main thing to remember for this grill is that it's for direct heat cooking (no lid). I had a little trouble with the first whole chicken I tried to cook. But figured out that this grill isnt meant to cook whole chickens. But if I use either boneless chicken, or chicken pieces(legs, thighs, wings) it turns out juicy and nicely caremlized when I add bbq sauce at the last 10 mins or so. Also did ribs by wrapping the entire rack of ribs in foil with just salt and pepper for seasoning over medium heat, turning it every 30 mins for about 1.5 2 hrs. Then removing the foil, turn burners on high and basting with BBQ sauce, flipping it every few minutes until it gets a nice coating (about 3 brushings of sauce on each side). Yummy!

Given this is a "party grill" I expected it to be larger even though I did look up the dimensions before I ordered it. It is about the size of an ordinary large gas BBQ in terms of cooking surface. Due to multiple damage issues I had to return the grill since it had bent sheet metal, sheared rivets and broken screws. Amazon of course took it right back and the damage was not apparent from the box it came in.

This grill looks like something that would be great to take camping or for events at home where you want the convienence of being able to fold it up and pack it away. If you are wanting something that can cook a lot of food at once for a large event, keep on looking as this unit is too small for that.

In spite of the damaged unit received, it appeared to be well made. I have owned another conventional gas BBQ from Nexgrill for years and have been very happy with it.

THE GRILL IS BEAUTIFUL, BUT CAME WITH A FEW DENTS AND 2-3 HINGES WAS BROKEN. THIS DID NOT SURPRISE ME SINCE THE BOX WAS SO HEAVY AND HAD SOME HOLES. THE INSULATION/PADDING IS WAY TOO SKINNY FOR SUCH A HEAVY UNIT. I CONTACTED AMAZON ASKED FOR A DISCOUNT BECAUSE OF THE DAMAGE AND THEY GLADLY GAVE ME A 20% DISCOUNT. I FIXED THE HINGES WITH MY RIVET GUN AND DON'T CARE ABOUT THE DENTS. WHAT A BEAUTIFUL GRILL. AMAZON FOR LIFE.

I bought this spray bottle thinking the concept was great, just spray the marinade on the meat instead of painting it on. Unfortunately the pump handle broke after only a couple of sprays. Apparently the only type of marinade you can use with this item has to have the same viscosity as water. The mixture of oil and vinegar it seems was too much for the plastic pump handle. It looks good but for all practical purposes it's useless. I will provide you with more instruction than the postage stamp size note that comes with it; if you buy this spray bottle only use clear liquids in it.

This is a flimsy plastic bottle with a metal covering over it, and a spray head that doesn't spray anything other than water. I tested it as soon as it arrived with water and it worked fine. I've tried twice to use it with a bbq mop sauce and it has failed both times. It failed to spray even a drop with very thin apple cider vinegar mop with just a few spices in it. It couldn't pull the liquid up the straw at all. I would not recommend this.

I am the proud owner of other items endorsed by Steve Raichlen including four of his cookbooks. Earlier this year I introduced my brother in law to the art of outdoor grilling with a gift basket that included Steve Raichlen's BBQ bible, Steve's wood chip soaker set and Steve's Chili Pepper Roasting rack. I said all of that to qualify my endorsement of Steve's other products but NOT this one.

For Fathers Day I received this as a gift and eagerly looked forward to adding this to my assortment of outdoor cooking impliments. After church we came home and lit the charcoals in my smoker (we have 2 smokers and 2 grills), mixed up my favorite rub and once the smoker reached 250 degrees loaded it up with chicken and ribs.

After 30 minutes I grabbed the nifty little marinade spray bottle filled up with apple juice (I like to sprits the meat with apple juice every 30 minutes during the smoking process), opened the lid of my smoker and pulled the trigger. On the first pull it fell apart. Literally. The trigger mechanism came apart in my hand, the spring shot out and landed in the grass, a small cap like piece went inside the smoker and the bottle fell splashing me with apple juce...

I grabbed my old cheap but tried and true plastic bottle, filled it with apple juice and commenced to spritzing the ribs and chicken. Last year I grilled and smoked 40 out of 52 weeks (can you tell I like to cook outdoors?) and my trusty little cheap squirt bottle is still working almost 2 years since it was purchased.

I had high hopes of this product but sadly it broke on the first pull of the trigger. Buy something else and save your monies and your dinner.

This fit my new style Performer grill perfectly. Doesn't blow off in the wind, either. One small issue is that rain water will pool on top of it over the counter part of the grill. Mosquitoes will breed in this water pool. Try putting something on top of the counter, like a small plate, then cover the grill. The plate will tent up the cover, making the water run off.

I am happy with this cover. It fits perfectly on my 2008 Weber Performer model #848001 which is the dark blue model. No problems with the fit. We get very high winds in the winter, and so far have not had any super bad winds, but I've had good luck so far by simply placing a couple of vinyl tipped metal construction spring clips at apposing corners around the legs of the Performer. I can't see how it could blow off with the 2 clips in place. When I take it off to use the Performer, I simply fold it up loosely and put it in the fold out charcoal hamper with my bag of charcoal. Seems well made. No Problems. I recommend it.

Even though the product description says that it fits 2005 and newer grills, I can verify that it fits my 1999-era Weber 761001 22 1/2-Inch One-Touch Platinum Charcoal Grill, Black just fine. After 14 years, the original Weber cover that I bought was stiff and cracked and falling apart from exposure to the sun, rain, and snow of Wisconsin, so it was high time to replace it.

After so many years, I had forgotten just how flexible the fabric on the cover was. It's much easier to get the cover on an off when it hasn't shrunk and gotten stiff from age! It does have a tendency to balloon in a wind, so putting a piece of firewood on the top will keep the cover from blowing off and landing somewhere downwind.

There are two things I would change about this cover:

1) a vent of some kind at the top, so that the wind would flow throw instead of ballooning it, or alternately, some clips or velcro straps to secure it to the grill legs. I might add some grommets and velcro straps to do just that.

2) a change in the sewing pattern or something that would keep the part that covers the table from becoming a puddling spot for water. I would guess this ages the vinyl prematurely, plus it collect dirt and debris which makes it get dirty easier, and if left for an extended period of time, the puddle of water could attract mosquitos. I think I can get around this by putting something on the table before covering it so that the cover tents over it and makes the rain runoff instead of puddling.

Overall, I think it was worth the extra money to buy a Weber-branded cover. It's made well and it fits the grill perfectly. The guy at Ace Hardware mentioned that the Weber-branded covers are made better, which is why mine lasted as long as it did. If you get several more years of use from a higher-cost cover, the difference in cost is worth it in my opinion.

Honest reviews on Weber Performer Grill Cover

This cover fits great on our '07 grill, no complaints there. However in the short time we have had it, it has blown away twice. Thankfully we found it both times, but we are definitely planning on putting some ties on it so that we can keep it on the grill. I know these crazy Kansas winds don't help, but I guess I'm disappointed that Weber didn't think of that themselves.

If you have the new style Weber this cover fits like a glove.

Since this item has a table that is flat, I put a piece of foam

on the table so rain runs off the cover.

The cover won't stay sloped like the picture, rain will flatten the cover.

It does not leak, but I'm sure after a year or two you may have to put

water repellent on like thy use on tents, if that matters to you.

A year later, 6/3/2012, it steal works like new, no leaks. It's been out all this time.

I received the product with the incorrect item inside the box. I ordered a red grill but there was a green one inside the box. The outside of the box indicated the item inside should be red, so this was obviously a packaging problem somewhere. I had little time for the exchange as I had ordered the grill for an upcoming party. When I called Amazon to discuss the issue, at first the customer service rep said that they could just ship out a replacement for us with quick delivery( I don;t remember if it was next day or 2 day delivery but it was a short period). Then she said no she could not do that because Amazon no longer stocks this product. Later the product manufacturer told me they just sent a huge shipment to Amazon for this product when I called about a question on the setup. When I asked the Amazon Customer Service Rep whether Amazon could arrange a shipment from one of the other online vendors that it advterises this product for on Amazon which indicated they had the item in stock, she said no. I had to explain myself several times before she understood my request. When it finally came down to it, she said they could make those arrangements but that she could not guarantee next day delivery...even though she never even contacted one of those vendors to ask if it was possible...Then she told me we would have to pay extra charges if we wanted the correction made with a quick shipment. I finally ran out of time to deal with the person on the phone and the incorrect item and decided to keep it. It was a very frustrating 30-45 minutes of my time with the customer service person who was a very bad listener, kept interrupting me and talking over me and was not willing to attempt to look for creative solutions to the problem. Putting the grill together was a moderately sized task. It was designed for everything to fit together precisely and if there are any deviations in the alignment or if the product is slightly bent in spots, as mine was, you have to try to bend the parts or redrill bigger holes... All in all it took about an hour and were unable to get at least one of the screws into the product ...The final product is great though. We use the grill at least 3 days a week and love it. It heats up very well and fast and it looks great. I would suggest one enhancement to the product, if the left and right 'side tables' could collapse down to the sides or tuck into the back somehow, it would be ideal for making it less obtrusive in smaller spaces like ours.

This is a copy of my review for the exact same GREEN model of this grill. For some reason they are not listed as one item with color choices so I have posted the review for the other colors, having actually purchased the Green model.

*****See Update Below******

Having now had this grill for over a year, I would describe it as a decent quality grill for a fair price. I use this grill frequently, probably twice a week or more, even in winter. If you are an occasional user, you may find this a more ideal product.

The Good Points-

1) It looks great and is perfect if you don't want and over testosteroned massive stainless grill on your property.

2) The quality and functionality is decent.

3) If you get a hold of a real person at Minden, they are very nice and will go out of their way to help you.

4) Heats up very quickly.

The Bad Points-

1) You MUST purchase separately the stainless steel grate. The included enameled grate will wear out in less than one season.

2) The wood handle will also become moldy in less than a season. I extended it's life by using some spray varnish on it, but I would still prefer the stainless steel one (which I've seen at Williams-Sonoma on a version of this grill that only they sell).

3) The spatter plates become quickly rusty. Minden was nice enough to send me (essentially for free) 3 stainless steel ones.

4) Some of the bolts which hold the unit together become rusty over time, they should be made of stainless steel, but they aren't.

5) The grill does not evenly heat, and has hot and cold spots, which over time if you understand where they are you can compensate for them.

They really have the makings of a great grill with some small modifications, I would encourage them to change some parts to stainless steel (described above) and attempt to resolve the unevenness of the heating surface.

******UPDATE April 8, 2012********

After having this grill for about two years, I sadly have to conclude that it's not something I would buy again.

The rust has continued to the point where critical functioning parts are failing. The bracket for the trough which supplies gas from burner to burner has failed, causing the trough to fall off. I've managed to stick it back using some rocks so I can still use the grill.

The hot and cold spot issue seems to have gotten worse, and it's also now hard for me to get the grill started without pressing the start button 10 or 15 times.

Additionally, the threaded plastic gas tank hookup broke in half, and I had to replace it with a new one.

After doing some math, I've concluded that the cost of ownership of this grill is simply too high.

At 479, lasting two years, means 249/year (this does not include the MANDATORY cost of buying the Stainless Steel Grate)

***Conclusion: I've pretty much settled on purchasing the American Outdoor Grill Model 25PC (with back burner). It's basically the same physical size, but at 1650 is considerable more expensive. However, nearly every part on the grill is guaranteed for 10 years, with some parts being guaranteed for longer. Even if one figures that the all stainless steel, made in America grill will last for 10 years, the cost of ownership per year is only $165.

The Minden Grill is basic, but well designed and built to last. Assembly was easy, though having a helper around would be a good idea with the heavier components like the grill top. The grill heats quickly reaching about 550 in about 10 minutes. Temperature control is effective and simple. I like the modular approach to accessories. So far cleanup has been a snap. It is a relatively compact grill with clean lines. It continues to exceed my expectations and represents a real value in quality grills at its price point.

Always wanted a food umbrella I hate flies. had this one in my basket for months before deciding on purchasing. The umbrella does not lay flat on the table when in use, there are spaces on each side between the table and the umbrella...therefore flies can get in. To use I actually have to lay down two table towels, put the food in dish to the centre of the towels, cover with the umbrella, then fold the towels back onto the umbrella sides to cover the spaces on either side (4).

I bought these nets to keep off the swarm of fruit flies that appear everytime I bring a piece of fruit into the house. These work pretty well. My only slight complaint is the fabric is pulled so tightly over the frame that the fabric curls up slightly at the bottom and the odd crafty Drosophila has made it in. However, as fruit flies are not known for their intellectual prowess, this has not been too much of a problem and generally has kept out 95% of the flies.

Fuego Element Dual-Zone Gas BBQ Grill, Stainless Steel Review

Customer Ratings:

I bought this grill for my 5' x 12' urban deck. I technically have enough room to squeeze in a full-sized grill, but it would feel cluttered. This grill looked perfect online -but at over 500 dollars, I hemmed and hawed about whether to get it last year. This summer, when I got a (huge) gift card from work, I bit the bullet. Couldn't be happier (almost).

PROS:

amazing style, everyone who comes over compliments how stylish and convenient it is

solid cooking, great cast iron top cooks well

surprisingly large surface area given the profile

stainless steel looks great

way better than getting one of those mini-canister "portable" grills

the propane tank is completely hidden

thermometer is a nice touch

I don't care what others say... the metal cover over the tank is easy to take on and off

CONS:

THE REGULATOR LEAKED UPON ARRIVAL fortunately, I know how to do a quick leak test with soapy water, found the problem, and bought a new regular at the local hardware store for fifteen dollars... still, no ideal

no shelf space I wish I had paid the extra one fifty for the stainless steel version that has a swing-out wooden shelf; instead, I ordered the 50 buck accessory shelf which doesn't really cut it; fortunately, I have a patio table next to it that I commandeer while grilling

MINOR NITS:

the grill lid has a "hook" to hang it on the handles, but only on the right side!

the grill lid handle still requires a glove to pull off

Based on the Williams Sonoma video of this grill I purchased it from Amazon to save tax and shipping. It arrived in a totally destroyed box presenting the problem of how to return it if damaged. Fortunately it was not damaged but it is problematic in that the control button often requires numerous tries to get the element lit. The access panel to the propane tank is exceedingly difficult to operate. Finally I was disappointed that the grill that I purchased though the same price as Williams Sonoma's does not come with the retractable wood tray. instead it is an option at $49 and does not retract for convenient storage. Moral of this experience.buy it from Williams Sonoma, get the retractable tray and have an easy option for return if you are not satisfied.

Cheap Napoleon Apollo AS300K 3-in-1 Smoker

Customer Ratings:

The Apollo 3-in-1 Smoker does a good job as a smoker but when compared to the Weber Smokey Mountain (WSM) it comes up short. I struggled over which to purchase. I was attracted to the Apollo because it has features that the WSM does not. The Apollo comes with handles in each of its sections. The sections also have clips that hold the sections together. Each cooking section has a hole so that a temperture probe can be placed through to measure the temperture of the food. Unfortunately, the Apollo has drawbacks that out weigh the features it hasover the WSM. The Apollo's is not near as well put together as the WSM. There are many leaks between the sections and doors. The clips that hold the sections together are cheaply made and I expect that they will break very soon. The clips are fastened via rivets so replacing them will be close to, if not impossible, to replace. The metal used in the construction of the Apollo is much thinner that the WSM. The welded seams of each section were not finished well and are very evident. The handles are cheap and I expect them to give out as well. The good news about the handles is that they are bolted on and could be replaced if needed. The Apollo has two small doors, one for each cooking area, for which to monitor the food and add water and charcoal. They too are very very cheaply done and leak quite a bit. In this case, the door metal can be bent to help seal them better but they leak nonetheless. Unlike the WSM, the Apollo does not come with a heat shield at the bottom so caution needs to be used as to where you place the Apollo when in use. Also, unlike the WSM, the Apollo does not come with a cover. The cover is purchased seperately and cost around $30. The cover had a mesh strip about 2 inches wide all the way around. The first night I had the Apollo it rained and water entered through the mesh opening and ended up pooling at the bottom of the base. I imagine that over time the water would rust out the base of the Apollo if allowed to stand for any length of time. The Apollo is warranted for one year. The WSM warranty is much longer depending on the part in question. The temperture gage in the cover is a good feature but is off about 25 degrees. So far, I have smoked pork ribs, beef ribs, chicken, pork butt, and beef brisket. All have turned out great. The Apollo gets the job done but is not as well constructed as it should be if it wants to compete at the same price point as the large (22 1/2 inch) WSM. When the Apollo breaks within the next year I will be purchasing the large WSM.

I bought this in May 2011 and have been very satisfied with it. I considered WSM's but the 22.5" was just way too large for my needs and the 18.5" was way too small. I cook mostly baby back ribs and spare ribs which are ~16"-18" in length and the 20" diameter of the AS300K works perfectly for these. I can lay the ribs flat, put them in a rib rack, or in coils held by kabob skewers. I have also cooked pork butts and brisket, but not often as this is more meat than my family can eat!

The nice thing about this unit is you can pull a section out to cut down on the volume of oven you are trying to heat. This extends the life of your charcoal.

This unit seems to me as well made as the WSM's. I think early versions were not though, and may have given these a bad rap. But the unit I received is the same guage steel and finish as the WSM.

Modifications/tips:

-Before seasoning the unit I went to the local hardware and bought a tube of food grade silicone caulk http://www.amazon.com/Red-Devil-Industrial-0809-0I/dp/B000H5Q5VG and ran a bead between each segment/section/can of the smoker. While moist, I screeded the caulk with a penny. Once dry, this sealed the cans tight when latched together, I would have done this had I bought a WSM too.

-Sprayed the entire inside of the unit with veggie oil spray before the first cook.

-With all 4 vents (3 lower, 1 in dome) wide open, water in the water pan will give you steady 240ºF temps throughout your cook. Omit the water and drop a 16" diameter clay flower pot saucer (bought at Home Depot, about $15) and you will get steady temps in the 300ºF range. Since I bought the saucer I have not used water since. I smoke the ribs an hour exposed to heat and smoke, then wrap them in foil to retain moisture and cook another 2-2.5 hours until done. Then let them rest 15 min. Figure 3lbs of charcoal (I use Stubbs from Lowes) per hour of cook using the Minion Method (I pour one chimney of hot charcoal over fresh charcoal and pecan chunks).

-The Apollo has thermocouple probe holes pre-installed at each grill level. Using a Maverick 732 I monitored a cook at both levels using the clay saucer, there was only about a 5ºF-10ºF difference between the two grates, which surprised me, I figured the lower grate directly over the clay saucer (which in turn is directly over the charcoal) be 25-50º hotter, not so. Clay saucer cooking made a believer out of me.

-The hardware, latches, rivets, etc look fine to me. I own a rivet gun and so am not concerned as another reviewer was if the hardware plays out.

I also own a Tejas 2040 offset smoker but use the Apollo almost exclusively now, I can configure the sections exactly as needed to match the amount of meat I am cooking. I would definitely buy this unit again in a heartbeat.

I love this smoker. It is the most versatile BBQ I have ever owned. I have cooked pizza, whole chickens, pork shoulders, hamburgers, and steaks. With a little practice it will produce the best meat you have ever tasted. It is better than the Weber Smokey Mountain because it has a larger water pan which means less fill ups and a more steady cooking temp. The coal basket is all one piece which is a sturdier design. I have been very impressed with this smoker. I have owned is for 18 months and still looks almost new. I do not work for Napoleon or any other BBQ company I am just a BBQ enthusiast who loves smoked meat.

Honest reviews on Napoleon Apollo AS300K 3-in-1 Smoker

I went back and forth between the Apollo and the Weber Smokey Mountain and I'm glad I chose the Apollo. I'm sure the WMS is a fine smoker but the Apollo is more capable of being multi-functional. I wanted a smoker that easily converted to a charcoal grill and back into a smoker. I know you can jerry rig the WSM to do the same but the apollo was built for it. Also, each segment of the smoker can be broken down and each has handles for easy handling. I've only used the smoker 4 times so far but temperature control is very solid. Low and slow 220 degree temp is easily achieved and maintained. Smoking at a hotter 350 degrees requires a little more tending to but cooking at those temps usually doesn't take that long anyway. The only reason I rated it 4 stars is the latches used to lock each segment together could of been aligned better. They seem solid enough but a little more attention to detail during manufacturing would of been nice. Overall I love the smoker and plan on honing my bbq skills over the next 10 years with it.

I cook outdoors around 2 times a week all year long.I have used and abused this unit for almost 2 years, with no problems. Well OK I did wear out the fire grate but I am still using it and just now looking for a new one.All latches still work and the unit as a whole is in great shape. I expect to use it for at least 2-3 more years, if not more.

A steady temp is easily maintained for 5-6 hours on one load of coals. For grilling pull the water pan and top ring. For a fast smoke pull the just the water pan.I even use a pizza stone on it for great pizza. It is just has more options than other brands, right out of the box.

I have worn several grills out in under 2 years, this grill/smoker is class A quality. If I had to buy a new one today, I would buy this unit again without hesitation.

I am a Weber kettle grill groupie but I went out on a limb and bought my 1st propane gas grill. After much research I bought the Napoleon La Series and absolutely LOVE IT! WOW, there are not enough adjectives to describe my love for this grill. Perfect size for 2 people, but big enough to grill for a crowd. Quality materials and components with awesome cast iron grills. Super easy to assemble. Even easier to clean! Beautifully designed, compact, solid, classy, and can it grill the PERFECT steak!!! It's all about the BTU's per square inch and does Napoleon bring it! LOVE MY NAPOLEON! LA MAGNIFICENT GRILL!

Recently purchased this grill to replace a larger one that won't fit on the patio of a new Townhouse. It cooks great, burners light the first time, the controls glow neon blue when on (very cool) and are fairly precise. The grill is solid and has nice tray and burner that can fold down to reduce patio "foot print". Also, the grill is designed to help minimize "flare-ups" and when cooking a couple of Rib-eye steaks the other night it worked really well. All in all a really good grill for the price!

I purchased this item for my Member's Mark (Sam's) model 720-0586A grill. They are an exact fit. The only difference is that these do not have an opening in the top like my OEMs did but I do not think that matters. They are an excellent value and I will be buying a backup set to keep for the when these burn out. They are about 1/4 the cost of OEM.

These replacement parts are very close to the original, but slightly larger for my model grill that is listed in the description. Personally, I don't mind cutting a little metal off the end to make them fit, but if you aren't into that kind of thing, don't get these.

Construction seems to be of good quality, similar to OEM, but only time will tell how these wear in actual use.

Happy with this. Received the items quickly and they are as described. The heat plates work great on my Jenn Air grill.

My Jenn-Air model grill was listed in the description but the parts I recieved certainly DID NOT fit the application. Modifications were needed to get the heat shields to actually fit to the grill for use,so just a "Heads-Up"...."Buyers Beware" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Arrived very fast, happy with the price, but the quality is so so, meaning after the first use it tarnishes, even after cleaning it with easy off you can't bring back the stainless steel look. I would say it is not a very high quality product.
