Char-BroilGas BBQ Advantage PRO S 2-burner Barbecue with TRU-Infrared Technology, 900°C Sear Burner, Cast Iron Grates - Ideal for Outdoor Cooking, Garden, Balcony and Patio

I spent a full day researching barbeques before buying this one. The Char-Broil Advantage Pro S 4-4 made the short list, and hits a sweet spot, having very good construction without a lot of pointless features. If this BBQ is the right size for your needs, and you don't want to spend a day doing research, then just go for it.We opted to pay extra to have it assembled for us, and felt the reduced hassle was worth the cost.In its debut, the BBQ cooked a lot of food very quickly -- chicken, burgers, sausages, etc. With the lid down it doesn't take long to fully cook the meat, while leaving it juicy inside (good flavour). If you use the 900 C searing side burner, it will give you a thoroughly seared result (darker, drier) -- so be sure that's what you actually want!Clean-up wasn't too bad at all, actually. The grills assemble very precisely, and the bespoke cleaning tool is well designed. The Char-Broil accessories seem very over-priced, however -- i probably should have purchased a generic cover instead, costing one quarter of the price.

Can't comment on assembly as we paid the extra £40 to have it assembled on delivery, glad we did as it took 2 guys nearly 2hrs to put it together. Pleased with the look of it though. Used it for the first time yesterday and was really impressed, cooked evenly and the heat wasn't too fierce so nothing was burnt.

Great BBQ. Could do with netter weather this year so we can get to use it. But it is a good BBQ. Takes a bit of putting together

Great piece of kit, but could be so much better. Package arrived undamaged, unpacked everything and discovered that the left side panel was damaged; must have been damaged before it was packed because the packaging was not damaged, Managed to straighten the panal sufficiently to fit it. The on line instructions for building it were good, but its easier to fit all the panels together before fully tightening the screws. I thought that the control knob for the searing control was supposed to be red, but mine was the same colour as the other controls. Design seams good, but I cannot understand why the gas supply tube and the gas supply to the searing ring have to drop down the front of the bbq, they could easily be routed to the rear and out of sight. Overall I am very happy, it cooks really good.

Looks good, solidly made and easy to put together with simple to follow instructions. Cooks steaks perfectly on the sear plate, chicken cooked on the main grill remains juicy and moist a promised. Still get slightly uneven heat distribution but you learn where the hotter and cooler spots are quite quickly. Better cooking results than a Weber which was nearly 3 times the price. Time will tell how long it lasts but can’t beat the cooking results or the purchase price at the moment.

Possibly the worst bbq I have purchased! It is expensive and the quality not that good. The tru-infred system is not what it is cracked up to be, it produces an unacceptable amount of smoke so bad you can not stand close to the bbq while cooking. The lid has wide gaps and loses heat when in windy conditions. How do I get my money back for this bbq? There are many bbqs that are much less expensive and perform better than the char-broil!

Had this for almost a year now. Excellent BBQ - plenty of space on the grill. Solid when built (which to be fair did take a few hours! But you only need to do it once)Cleaning has been a breeze.Searing station is great for steaks.

The assembly instructions were very clear and the finings were clearly labelled in blister pack, however due to the number of parts it still took about 11/32 hours to assemble. Seems sturdy and well finished. First cooking produced great results. Only time will tell how well it lasts though...
