Title: Built like a tank
Review: 3 month update after using it at least once a week. So this grill is perfect for 3 people, my son wife and I but for bigger families I’d get the regular Akorn.I’ve used a fraction of the charcoal I’ve previously used in big kettle grills and actually very cost effective to buy this if you’re not feeding a clan. I’ve grilled steaks chicken breasts whole chickens just had to flatten it including hot dogs and brats. This is the easiest cleaning grill I’ve ever owned and easy to empty ashes and grill cools down fast. I will always buy akorn grills from now on and I’ve owned gas and pellet grills this is easy to store and very easy to move around and take to the beach. So don’t look at others grills I’ve spent 1000s of dollars on grills and there is no comparable grill for this price point with this quality.Key points:Assembly was very easy with enough patience and a Phillips head or flat head will work for all the screws.Instructions were easy to understand and didn’t leave any questions and not tons of screws to lose while assembling.Solidly built this is on the smaller side but definitely doesn’t feel like something small when you move it, I feel confident our toddler won’t be able to move this or relocate it like everything else.Grates are cast iron and the best grill grate I’ve owned.One Con:The box didn’t arrive damaged and was delivered via USPS however there’s a quarter sized dent on the back of the top lid. Was kinda irritated finding the packaging undamaged however a dent on lid so they have a quality control issue that needs to be addressed because the foam wasn’t impacted and box arrived in perfect shape so quality control needs to be retrained or terminated. Not gonna return this over a small dent that didn’t affect the viability of this product as the dent isn’t deep and has zero chipping.I would buy again even with the dent because it’s a little tank and well built, can’t wait to use it as we have a big traegar pellet grill that I’m tired of cleaning.

Title: Great little grill!.
Review: Been wanting this for quite a while. It was finally in stock during Prime day so it was a really good price. I like that it’s portable & not too heavy but yet is well made. I’ve used it a few times for tuna steaks & marinated stuffed swordfish. Both came out excellent! Easy to assemble. Took me about 15-20 minutes taking my time. Directions were good. Bought the cover & the smoking stone which I haven’t used yet.

Title: Great little smoker!
Review: My husband loves to smoke meats and has made everything under the sun in this smoker. He loves how easy it is to hold temperatures, the lid fits very snug. With its smaller size we can easily load it up and take it camping with us! Very good value for the money. Seems very durable!

Title: Well made and easy to assemble
Review: This is a very well made Kamado style grill perfect for small scale smoking and grilling. Recommend getting Grill Nest stand for fixed usage as is very low to the ground when used without a stand. Cast iron grates are of excellent quality but do require proper seasoning before use.

Title: Easy assembly and cooks great
Review: Was easy to assemble and cooks great. I really enjoy this little grill. It is great for 1-3 people. I did get the stone and cover as well. I haven't used stone yet but cover is must for leaving outdoors

Title: Grates rusted beyond repairing, Upper damper valve broke a second time. Wish I could return it.
Review: Grill is fine however the grates rusted beyond using and cleaning. I ordered a stainless grate and I'll try that. I tried cleaning the grates but the rust build was so bad, in was not safe to cook on. The grill was covered also. It's useless without a safe cooking grate.Grates rusted beyond repairing, Upper damper valve broke a second time. Wish I could return it.

Title: Junior vs Senior
Review: I already had the large version that is great for family or group gatherings but if I wanted to just grill for myself it took a large amount of charcoal to grill and a lot of waste. With the junior model it only takes a small portion of charcoal and is resdy to cook on in a reduced amount of time with very little waste! I do like the front latch on the larger version better than the junior version though.
