Charmglow was one of the early brands of gas grills.  At some point in recent times, Brinkmann acquired rights to the name and produced a variety of low cost Charmglow gas grills. Brinkmann’s Charmglow line is no longer manufactured although many models are still floating around and available for purchase. It remains to be seen what the future holds for Charmglow.

Brinkmann is known for super low priced cookers, made for frugal people. Quality and price are close to value brands like Masterbuilt, Char-Griller and Master Forge, but Brinkmann is a small step above and sometimes offers interesting and useful value added features. Brinkmann is one of the largest BBQ manufacturers in the United States, angling for the market of price driven rival, Char-Broil, but lacking that company’s focus and innovation. They have a thousand and one models and some have merit considering the price, but many of their products are more of the same cost driven stuff with a different logo on the lid.
