Broil King Model 94944 Crown 40 Liquid Propane 44,000 BTU Gas Grill with Side Burner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was looking for a propane grill in the $400 range to replace a 15-year-old Weber Spirit and saw that Broil King received favorable ratings on About.com.

This product has a nice, even temperature across the whole cooking surface using Broil-King's Stainless Steel Super 8 burner -- it's basically a figure 8 with flame ports on the inside and outside edges.The flow valves turn very easily over a wide range of motion to provide excellent control over the flame and heat.The grill also includes the Flav-R-Wave bar which, like the vaporizer bars found in many other grills, burns off grill drippings for added flavor.The side trays fold down for easy storage (nice feature!).Assembly was almost too easy.

There were a few parts problems with the grill.Several slats on the cast-iron cooking grates were broken off (skimpy packaging) and the hood-mounted thermometer reads about 150 degrees even with the hood open on a cool day.A quick call to Broil-King's parts department and warranty replacements for both were on the way.

The left burner is a bit small and underpowered -- it's good for keeping sauces warm but doesn't provide enough space, say, for boiling up some corn in a pot. I would have also liked to see a fuel gauge included (I found a good inline gauge for $12 at a local big-box store).

All in all, it's a great grill for a great price and strongly recommend it.The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was because of the packaging/parts problems.
