Royal Gourmet CC1830S BBQ Charcoal Grill and Offset Smoker | 823 Square Inch cooking surface, Outdoor for Camping | Black

I bought this as a gift for my s.o. I was scared this product would be small but it’s the perfect size for our small patio. It was easy to assemble and looks great. IMO it’s not flimsy at all. We have been using it pretty often and it functions really well. It’s great for the price. Cooking time was fast and the capacity is pretty good I would say for a family of four at least. My partner loves it. I would suggest getting a cover for it for protection against weather.

We finally had a chance to assemble this new grill and test it out. It took us a while to find the right opportunity which is why this review is delayed. Our unit arrived undamaged and all the parts we needed were there. Assembly was straightforward and took about 1.5 hours. It takes two people at some important steps like installing the bottom tub and lid. Also, getting the initial assembly of the legs going makes you wish you were an octopus. One big improvement would be to put pins or screws into the joints where the leg sections slide together - not for future stability but just to hold those parts in place to install the brackets and bottom rack. We were very happy with the final appearance once it was assembled. The number of accessories is generous and very helpful. We love the adjustable height of the charcoal tray in the main section and the extra grates for the top of the side section could be very useful. As second oversight we found was that the ash tray in the side section does not fit back out through the cover or the door. So to remove the ashes you need to manually scoop them out or push them out the door on the side. Having that tray removable without spilling the ashes would be a bonus. As a direct grill it's wonderful. As an offset smoker, it's adequate. During smoking, it's a little hard to keep the right amount of charcoal and wood going to maintain the temperature without overshooting or rapid drops. The main lid leaks a lot of heat out the edges. We used the high temperature caulk all around the main parts during assembly and that helped a lot compared with some other peoples experiences in reducing the leaks. We ran it with the side door open most of the time and had to keep stirring the wood and charcoal to keep it hot enough. But, overall this is a very nice product and certainly acceptable for the price. Congratulations to the designers who have made a really nice affordable entry level grill/smoker product!

Took some time to build, but cooks great, easy to move, and so far has held up pretty nicely. I feel it's on the smaller side, but should be fine for smaller families.

It's not Traeger, but I don't BBQ much, and didn't need a lot. Still, I will say comments that call the metal really thin do exaggerate a bit. It's reasonably sturdy, assembles decently, although the modern avoidance of written instruction in favor of only graphics isn't my favorite. It should have been insanely easy to add just a few lines which would have sped up the process a bit. Also, although I assembled it by myself at a less than limber age, having youth or a second set of hands would make that process really easy. I have fired it up for three sessions - including a very hot one - just to burn off anything unwanted in the first cook, and at no time experienced any substantial chemical smells, no has any coating shown the slightest inclination to flake off or even alter color. This grill has a little wobble, but I could easily and safely move it (NOT while hot coals were in it, of course) and work with large amounts and multiple batches of product covering all of the upper and base racks as we grilled for a church event. Prior to an across state move, I had used a propane grill for years, and this was the first time to charcoal grill in probably 25 years...but the results were entirely satisfying. At this price point, this is a nice grill.

Definitely worth the money, perfect size and was easy to install

This grill cover is very sturdy and I love the clip holders for the bottom around the legs of the pit to keep it secured. I even used one to attach to bbq pit and then secured it to a chain link fence.

Searched for BBQ grills everywhere including ACE, Dragon Mart, etc. I could not find anything that's quite decent quality at a reasonable price. Very satisfied with the purchase and highly recommend it. But be aware that you will need quite a effort to assemble this unit.

Could be a bit more sturdy

Not impressed with this grill, I've used it for a few months, all types of grilling including the smoking. It breaks apart and discolors quickly, it also feels light and rattles. For the pricepoint you can find a much better grill with the same features.

Excelente proveedor atento y amable, el producto está genial, recomiendo seguir las instrucciones de curado para optimizar su funcionamiento, es perfecto. Muchas gracias.
