Char-Broil Gas2Coal 440 Hybrid Grill Gas Barbecue, Black, 61 x 24 x 46 cm

Great value of money using charcoal and gas, you safe time as well as a having a flavoured meals. Single mum and less than 5 foot tall, it was very easy to put it together alone in less than 2 hours, with a help of the app they recommend and printed manual that it comes with. Grill arrived on time and in a very sturdy box carefully wrapped all. If you don’t want scratches put a blanket underneath before taking things out. It doesn’t come with the gas level indicator that is in the picture, great help from manufacture help centre when I asked about it too. (Only German Barbecues are equipped with the gas indicator) Space for gas canister underneath doesn’t allowed you big bottles (perfect for 5Kg in the UK) Cooking crate rests straight on the fire box with time might scratch it (I’ll give updates in a few more uses) Crates are cast iron strong and heavy, our chicken didn’t stick on it. Recommend to find a charcoal that burns slow as the gas level in minimum still very strong to burn charcoal fast, if you used briquettes don’t put to many and don’t wait to much for it to burn as you might have ashes quicker than you think. Easy to move around and not heavy and not noisy, as soon as it cool it’s easy to clean. It’s great for my family (mum and three kids) Not to big, not to small, less hustle to get the charcoal starts.

Bought this on 'offer' which made it a great price! Quickly delivered in a large very strong box (heavy too) with all parts well wrapped and protected by bubble bags and polystyrene - took a couple of weeks of wheely bins (green) to get rid of it all. ALL the bits were there and all the steel BBQ in A1 indamaged condition. The instructions are a series of pictures but fairly logical. Spend some time identifying what's what and then took an easy 2.5 hrs to do the build. Tip, just loosly tighten the build until all the frame is together before tightening up fully! Only help needed was to lift the central burner unit into place. The end result is a good sized, very solid BBQ that's streets ahead of my previous £100 charcoal one (simple 10 year old dual barrel now rusting badly). Tested with gas and all works, just need my first excuse to give it a proper run on both gas and charcoal. Can't fault the BBQ so far and building was easier than I'd expected. It's also a beast and only the 3 burner version. Photo's after the main building before the side shelves were completed - couple of hrs to this point

BBQ Assembly Review Overall, I’m very pleased with the BBQ – it looks solid, stable, and well-constructed. The materials appear to be of good quality, and once assembled, it gives a strong impression of durability. That said, the process of installing the gas hose was unexpectedly difficult. It proved to be quite a challenge, requiring significant effort and unfortunately resulted in a couple of cuts to my fingers. This part of the assembly could certainly be improved, perhaps with clearer instructions or a more user-friendly design. Despite this hiccup, I’m genuinely excited to start using it. Looking forward to some great outdoor cooking sessions!

I opted for the BBQ to be built on delivery so cannot comment how it is to build. Two men built it in just less than a couple of hours. Looks amazing and very sturdy. I did take time to look at the assembly book, it didn't look very clear to me. Having looked at many Char-Broil YouTube videos, I was trying to find out if you need to remove the 3 silver gas covers before you place in the coal tray. I've seen videos that have them remain inside whilst I've seen others which have them removed first. The book suggests they should be removed, again its not clear. I decided to leave them in because they protect the gas burners and I want to keep it as clean as possible, this method worked fine, placed a flat layer of coal and lit the gas, it was really hot and smokey in less than a few minutes, turned the gas off and started to cook the food. Please could somebody kindly reply if you know if the silver gas plates should be removed when using the coal tray. Thanks in advance. The heat seemed evenly spread, I made use of all the BBQ cooking space, all the food was cooked exactly the same so no cool spots, it tasted lovely, smokey and the smell was amazing. Behind the BBQ there's a sign that states not to store your gas bottle on the shelf under the BBQ. I have a big bottle that won't fit anyway, would be nice to have it out of the way but that's no big deal. Easy to wheel to my garage at the end of summer. The Char-Broil protective cover for this model is a bit expensive, but probably worth getting it to save the elements ruining the BBQ. We also used it without the coal tray just using just gas and we regret it, food was still cooked even and tasted amazing, Its very awkward to clean the base. It does a good job of draining the grease into a grease cup, there's no getting away from the thick burnt oil that burns onto your base. I would therefore recommend always using the coal tray if you like to keep it clean. Overal I'm happy with my BBQ, food tastes lovely and very easy to get going. If I could change anything, it would be much better to have a base tray that you can slide out periodically to make cleaning easier. Great BBQ all the same for the price, looks nice and would recommend. Note this version did not come with the bottle opener I've seen on other 3 burner models.

Si vous suivez le mode d'emploi, le montage est long mais facile. Etant minutieux, j'ai mis 1h30-2h00 environ. Pour certaines étapes, il est préférable d'être à deux. En utilisation, le barbecue répond pleinement à mes attentes. Le lancement d'une cuisson au charbon est très rapide avec le gaz. Je pose le charbon, j'allume le gaz+feu et je ferme le couvercle; Dès que la température atteint 250°, je coupe le gaz. C'est extrêmement rapide et on redécouvre la cuisson au barbecue. Je l'utilise également en mode plancha 100% gaz. C'est vraiment top de pouvoir cuire des légumes ou poissons rapidement. Le barbecue en lui-même est de bonne qualité. Je suis vraiment satisfait de cet achat. Top !!

Il **Char-Broil Gas2Coal Hybrid Grill** è semplicemente fantastico! Finalmente un barbecue che combina alla perfezione la praticità del gas con il sapore inconfondibile della cottura a carbone. Questo modello a 3 fuochi è un sogno per gli amanti delle grigliate! La transizione da gas a carbone è incredibilmente semplice e veloce: basta pochi passaggi per passare da un sistema all'altro, senza bisogno di attrezzi aggiuntivi. È perfetto per chi ama la flessibilità: puoi usare il gas per una cottura veloce durante la settimana e il carbone per un'esperienza più tradizionale e saporita nei weekend. La qualità costruttiva è eccellente, con una robusta finitura nera che non solo è elegante ma resiste bene agli agenti atmosferici. La superficie di cottura è spaziosa e permette di cucinare grandi quantità di cibo in una sola volta, ideale per feste e riunioni di famiglia. Le prestazioni sono eccezionali: i bruciatori in acciaio inossidabile si accendono in un attimo e garantiscono una distribuzione uniforme del calore. Quando si utilizza il carbone, il sistema assicura una combustione uniforme e una gestione facile della temperatura. Inoltre, il termometro integrato e i ripiani laterali aggiungono praticità e controllo durante la cottura. In sintesi, questo barbecue è un prodotto innovativo che offre il meglio di entrambi i mondi. È versatile, facile da usare e costruito per durare. Un acquisto che consiglio vivamente a chiunque ami grigliare con stile e senza compromessi.

Kaputtes und mangelhaftes Produkt (wesentliche Teile fehlten) warte immer noch auf Rückerstattung des Kaufpreises nach Rücksendung. Nicht zu empfehlen!

Excelente barbacoa para carbón y gas. El ensamble es un poco complicado pero se puede realizar en unas 2 horas

Estupenda barbacoa, el tamaño ideal para grupos grandes. Ademas, al tener la opcion de encender menos fuegos, también es práctica para pocas personas. Lo de pasar de gas a carbón, un gran plus.
