Customer Reviews for Brinkmann Dual Function II Propane Gas and Charcoal Grill

This grill was the deal of the century. Home Depot put it together free of charge. The grill is solid and cooks great. The cook areas on both sides are small but fits my needs. I really enjoy having the gas and charcoal combined. The quality is excellent and the value cant be beat. I paid under 150.00 dollars. Outstanding for the price.

Love it, when I received it, it was already put together and all I had to do was use it, it is simply wonderful and the delivery person was very nice

It came preassembled. The assembly was not the best, things were not tightened. The side shelf had to be unassembled then reassembled to place it in the correct position. No drip pan.

Nice grill GREAT price Ordered on line was quick and easy Had a little trouble locating at pick up but pulled up email and located

The grill arrived without the drip cup other wise good

All in all it is a great grill. Lots of space for cooking.

I've only had this grill for about three weeks so far but its been fantastic for a cheap grill. Bought it in preparation of our big grill fest we have every summer. All the meat and veggies we've cooked on this grill has come out perfect. Assembly took a while but wasn't particularly difficult. Certainly helps to have a second set of hands when putting it together. Gas side gets nice and hot. Seems to cook fairly evenly. It would have been nice if the accent pieces on this were metal vs plastic. The handles for the lids already have heat marks where they contact the lid. Would have been nice if the knobs were metal for the gas side as well. Also, a trap for removing charcoal that gets into the bottom of the charcoal side would have been nice. Deeper grease trap on the gas side.

Just bought this and assembled this morning. Read a few reviews, yes it is not of higher quality parts, but I'm taking advise to get a cover to try & make it last several years. So since I've only had it a day my review is limited but I can say that I took my time on morning off and assembly was reasonably straightforward, honestly I thought the stand was the most challenging,(just trying to make sure it was all correct). I would take the others recomedation to read directions and follow them,(made easier for sure). After finish I burned off any residue for 15min. as recomended, then later grilled burgers & dogs for lunch. Later I grilled a big piece of salmon for dinner and both meals came out quite well with no apparent issues whatsoever. I still have to fire up the charcoal side. I would say for the $ spent, this grill, taken care of, is well worth it...:)

The grill was easy to assemble and I did it alone, in about 2 hours. I LOVE this grill! The size is perfect for a single person, or a small family.

Perfect gift for a grilling family where some like propane and others like charcoal...that was our case. Great price, too!

The grill was okay. It was worth what we paid, but nothing special. The igniter switch got loose, had to call Home Depot to ask how to fix it. So only issue was the switch, otherwise it's a good grill.

I wanted Propane, my husband wanted Charcol. This was a great purchase for us!! Great price - easy to put together (bonding time:) and has yet to let us down! Thank you!

Works great, dual grill options are very convenient.

the grill went together really well up and cooking within an hour great price great fathers day gift

Great grill with good grilling surface. The removable charcoal trays nice for clean up. Easy assembly.

I was lucky enough to purchase one that was already assembled, the only thing I didnt realize at the time until using it was it was missing the drip pan underneath, but other than that no problems! Definately loving the option of charcoal and gas. Usually do the meat on the charcoal side and veggies and the other stuff on the gas side. Perfect barbeque for sure!

I bought it already assembled for my husband on fathers day and who ever did it didnt do an amazing job. other than that its working great.

This is the very best purchase and price I have ever made ever since I have this product I have cooked and smoked on it every day and can't get enough of it this is the most highly recommend product that I can give .

Not bad for the price not that easy to clean very light weight metal

This is a starter smoker, hard to control the heat and a bit small... very good for the price though. The instructions are not clear so take your time or you will be reassembling it a few times to get it right. The quality is ok, the wheels are very cheap and seem to be ready to fall off. It is not easy to add charcoal to the grill do to the way the cooking grates sit but this is minor. Feature wise you get a lot for the money.

Grill was on sale for Memorial Day weekend. It was a great value with the charcoal and gas. Because of the great deal, they were hard to come by. We had go to another Home Depot in the area to purchase and pick up the grill, which was assembled in the store. However, when we set up the grill, we noticed the tank hook was missing. We had to contact Brinkman several times to get the missing/replacement part. It took the 7 business days to get the part shipped to us, which the box was damaged, but the part was intact. We received the part, but not the screws to attach it. We decided to purchase the screws out of pocket instead of having to go through Brinkman again. The grill is ok for the money, but would recommend purchasing the grill cover to keep it from the elements.

took it out of box all smashed up drove 2 hrs to home depot for garbage.got it home and the cheap sheet medal is all bent and deformed. I wont even waste anymore of my time trying to put together

PERFECT! This grill has it all! Best of both worlds! Definitely would recommend to my friends over any other grill.

I LOVE this grill!! I have bought many many grills over the years and kept giving them away because sometimes I like to have the flavor of charcoal and then others the quickness of gas. This gives me the best of both worlds!!

This grill was not difficult for 2 people to assemble. The instructions are clear and the cleaning maintenance guide is fabulous. The wheels on the grill are poor quality and the hinging for the metal grill covers could be improved. But, overall, the gas and charcoal grill is great, a first choice each day for cooking and when not in use and covered with the sweet Brinkmann Grill Cover, adds to the beauty of the backyard. At $199, a good value for the money. Online order and pickup at the nearest Home Depot was as promised. From the order placed early on a Saturday morning, to pick up later that morning, all was as expected. The Home Depot staff at the store was tops, from ringing up the order to loading a rather large box into the backseat of a Prius, right on top of 2 child car seats. Well done Brinkmann & Home Depot!

Have used both sides and they are great to cook on.

This product has been what I thought it to be. It is very useful and user friendly. I now have the choice of whatever I am feeling for the day, have charcoal flavor or the ease of gas. It is a satisfying feeling...

Great idea,just poor quality china steel.Gas section rused thru in les than 2 years.And it was covered until the brinkman cover turned to dust @ a year and a half.

I bought this grill 2yrs. ago and it has already rusted pieces off the burners and the middle turner has stopped working. Took good care of this grill covered when not in use and put away in the winter it is no better than other grills I have bought. I think my next grill will be a Weber grill hopefully it will last longer than past grills I have bought.

Nice being able to use gas or charcoal, without losing space for both on the deck.
