I don’t know why they ship it in the factory box without a second outer box to protect it? My delivery was open on 3 sides and I had to help the driver get the broken box inside our garage. I put it together yesterday and other than a few scratches and scuffs it wasn’t as bad as I expected.
This is my 5th Char Griller I’ve purchased and some parts are better and some are worse than my 5050 grill.
I like the cast iron grills over the enamel type they used for years. The body seems thicker but the legs are cheaper quality. The hardware is worse than ever but I’ll spring for some quality stainless steel bolts and nuts before long. I love the way Char Griller food cooks. I’m taking my smoker box off my 5050 and installing it on my 2828. The description states the 2828 is powder coated but it’s not like any powder coating I have on my hotrod suspension!
I’m still trying to figure out the grease trap as I didn’t receive anything in my box that resembles a grease trap.
On my old 5050 Duo I never used the propane side and it’s still new.
I don’t know why I got a duo other than it was on sale.
My big issue with these char Griller are with the ash pan.
I’ve had to replace mine every year on all 5 models I’ve owned!
Other than that I’ve been happy with the design and how well they cook meat!
Reviewed in the United States on November 16, 2023
In use it's been great. It heats up quick and has been solid and made great food. Following the instructions to "cure" it with vegetable oil before first use definitely helps things not to stick to the grates.
Only thing I can think to mention right now is that the handle on the lid immediately became stained with charcoal upon first use, which seemed a little ridiculous since your hand will be covered in charcoal when you close the lid at some point but I guess it's to be expected. I would think they would treat the wooden handle to not be so susceptible to that.
