Charmglow Gas Grills
 by: Dewayne Cataldi

Brinkmann manufactures the Charmglow gas grills for Home Depot who owns the Charmglow name. Thus this grill can only be found at Home Depot. However Brinkmann itself has a nice line of gas grills.

This is a well built unit that sells for around $300. It's nice and heavy and is build to last and you get a whopping 45,000 BTU on a 456 cooking area. It's great value for the money.

And of course there are pros and cons to any grill. The pros include heavy duty cooking grates and burners. A nice BTU and cooking area size, a self igniter, and a removable drip pan.

The cons include a card that is held together with screws rather than welded, a porcelain enamel coating that needs more care, and an aluminum construction rather than stainless.

You get a total of 45,000 BTUs presented with three 15,000 BTU porcelain enamel cast burners, plus you get an additional 12,000 BTU from the brass side burner. There are three independent igniters for each of the burners which is a nice feature. The vented hood releases excess heat.

For under $300 this grill is a good buy. There are few other grills on the market that will give you as much cooking power or as many features for that amount of money. And although the aluminum frame may not last as long as stainless it's been used for years and has a great track record for durability.

Engrail also produces grills for Home Depot under the Charmglow name. Their grills are stainless with control panels, front cabinet doors, hood sections, and they also have better burners and grates. Of course these stainless Charmglow grills can't be purchased for the price of the level entry one.
