Good grill very heavy duty. Wish it had an ashtray catcher though.

Took a while to put together but only cause I did it solo and it was awkward to say the least. Lol I'm 35year old smaller female but I handled it. Cooks amazing but make sure you "season" the grill n read directions before cooking on it. Great buy! Stoked!

Easy to assemble, and works great.

love the grill, kind of pricey, one stationary leg half inch shorter than the other

EXCELLENT GRILL. VERY SATISFIED. EXCEEDED MY EXPECTATIONS!

I love this grill. Assembly was easy. I was glad I read the reviews before assembling, as they gave me some hints on what to look out for.

This is a great charcoal grill. Very easy to assemble. Doesn't take much space like the previous grill we owned. Keeps the heat within the barrel very well. Grilled some food for the family with it and was very easy to clean up afterwards. It's not as convenient as a propane grill, but the taste of charcoal or hickory briquettes make up for it much more.

This is a Dyna-Glo signature series deluxe, A heavy duty no fooling around grill. If you have to assemble, have another person help. Very good quality heavy metal housing, grill & charcoal catch, legs, and wheels. Has heat resistant coil spring handles and a vent slide control. Temperature gauge Grill top in three pieces set in place and a choo choo type exhaust vent. A front flip up/down table top. After assembly I carted the BBQ and it has weight to it. Very good grill for many years of use. Assembly tip is to use a Phillips screwdriver and a #10 end wrench or socket along with two adjustable wrenches.

This has to be one of the best Compact Barrel Charcoal Grill i have ever sen. Even better when we put it to use. Very easy to assemble and all hardware is included of course. Very nice dark rich black color send out beautiful vibes, especially when guest are over. Nothing but positive comments from friends and family. Has just the right amount of storage, for us at least. Easy open and easy clean from its swinging doors. Very beautiful smoke stack. Thermometer too! Goes great with most decor. Cant wait to use it again. Just in time for summer!!

This is an all-steel grill for charcoal only. It weighs about 90 pounds. It is made in China. The main body is 1.5mm sheet steel, which is just under 16 gauge - not what I would consider Heavy Duty, as most standard grills are this thick, and others are a lot thicker. The lid is 2.5mm thick, about 12 gauge, and the handle is made of even thicker steel, making the whole lid weigh over 12 pounds. There is no mechanism to control the opening or closing speed of the lid. The legs are thin tube steel. The wheels are all steel, mounted on a solid steel axle. The grates, both the grilling ones and the ones for the coals, are porcelain coated steel. They are smooth, and after a few grilling sessions, have held up well. There were several faulty welds on my BBQ, and many of the welds are small and of poor quality. The included hardware is somewhat low quality, and the washers are extremely thin - you can bend then with your fingers. Considering that these sit inside the BBQ under the hot coals, I am concerned that they will burn through. The legs are completely crooked on mine, and I have to put a piece of wood under one leg to use it. The thermometer does not even work, it reads -50 F at room temperature, and only about 200 F when grilling. Despite all these issues, it does cook well. It easily heats to over 500F, and the chimney makes it easy to light and control the temperature. The side door makes it easy to light the briquettes. The grills are good quality and a good size. Oh and there is absolutely no paint or other off-odors, and during the initial burn in, I did not notice any odors either.

I had the opportunity to evaluate this great little charcoal grill. I first noticed the boxing is impeccable so your grill comes undamaged. The unit is mostly a very easy assembly that takes 15 minutes. When they state it's heavy duty they weren't kidding. This grill is made from very heavy steels and built like a tank. Being heavy it is very easy to control the heat and the vents work very well. It is a smaller size grill and quite versatile. No need to waste fuel when grilling for two to four folks. This is a great grill and I will be using it for years to come. There is nothing better than charcoal grilling (with the addition of fruitwood chips) for flavors your whole family enjoys.

In the beginning we thought we wanted a gas grill, but we think the taste of a charcoal grill is much better than a gas grill. Yes it takes a little bit longer to get it ready but it is worth it. The heavy -Duty compact barrel is just the right size. My husband has gone online and found where you can also get an attachment to make it a smoker too. Jack Pot!

I really love this Dyna-Glo Heavy-Duty Compact Barrel Charcoal Grill. Heavy duty construction. Very solid, and heavy and yet easy to move around thanks to the larger-than-average wheels. Compact desgin offers a lot of cooking surface. I was pleasantly surprised to find out the temparature reading on the gauge was accurate. My last charcoal grill couldn't give me the right temp so I had to keep checking on the food. Overall it is a very good grill and I expect it to last for a very long time.
