Kenmore S3218ANB 5-Burner Gas Grill Review

By:

Max Good, Full time grill tester

The hood light and IR burners may seem sexy, but our review shows they are poorly made with cheap materials. Lights and out of date ceramic burners are often thrown in on many cheap gas grills as a value added feature and they are useful as long as they continue to function.

By:

Max Good, Full time grill tester

We reviewed these grills which are poorly made with cheap materials. They only carry a one year limited warranty, but you can bet Sears would love to interest you in an extended warranty.

By:

Max Good, Full time grill tester

These grills are attractive and the IR burner may seem sexy, but upon our review we note they are poorly made with cheap materials. This type of ceramic burner is way out of date and has, in recent years, begun popping up on many cheap gas grills as a value added feature. And it is useful as long as it continues to function.

By:

Read our review of Pro-Iroda O-Grills; a line of stylish portable gas cookers that fold up and can easily be carried by integrated handles that also act as a latch to keep the lid shut during transport.

Holland Epic Grill Review

By:

Max Good, Full time grill tester

People who own a Holland are usually nuts about it because, even though it takes a while to heat up, once they throw the meat on they can close the lid and take it easy. Holland cooks roasts, chicken, turkey and fish beautifully, but with no sear power, performance on steaks and burgers is lacking.
