NAPOLEON Will Grill Anything

One big, heavy hot propane grill

First things first. The instruction manual left much to be desired. It was almost all pictures, many made you scratch your head and wonder who came up with this thing. The only "tool" mentioned was a picture of a rubber mallet for installing the rolling wheels and the casings they were supposed to be hammered into. Through trial and error, here's the tools I used: Rubber mallet, 1/4" drive with 3/8" socket, 3 inch extension, 1/4" drive rachet, and a #1 size phillips screw driver. That's pretty m...

excellent grill

Assembly: The grill was delivered on a wood pallet, weighing about 250 pounds. The instructions for assembly were excellent. An APP was referenced in the instructions for downloading a video for assembly which was very helpful. It provided a 360 degree view of how parts should be assembled. Assembly was straight forward, but the grill is very heavy. I would recommend two people for installation. It took about 3 hours to assemble by myself. It would have been quicker if I had had assistance. U...

A Monster Of A Grill

This is a review of the Rogue® XT 625 Propane Grill with Infrared Side Burner and Bonus Smoker Box, in Stainless Steel. This is my first gas grill. Prior to this I've only used charcoal grills, so I'm still going through a learning curve in terms of enjoying the versatility of this type of grill. This is a monster of a grill. It's assembled height is nearly four feet tall, over five feet wide, and two feet deep. It comes mostly unassembled so you have a choice, either pay to have it put toget...

Horrible Product and Company, Wish I Got a Weber

Hinges of front door made from plastic and rotted into piece after only two seasons. Put in Warrant replacement request in May and after being told twice it would be shipping shortly I was told the earliest would be October!!!! HALF A YEAR just to get a broken door replaced. I always had to follow up with them to see what the status of my order was as they never updated me as their delivery dates came and went without a door being delivered an no emails from them informing/updating me. Now the ...

Best Grill I've ever owned.

So glad I selected this grill and I intend to use it all the time. Let's start with the packaging - It was securely covered in either plastic, boxes or cardboard. There wasn't a way to scratch the unit in any way until you start taking the parts out. Make sure you have plenty of space to put this together. I took the box it came in and laid it out flat and built the grill on top of it to limit any damage. Assembly - The instructions are ok, mostly visual but pay attention to the small dia...

Temp control

Easy to lower temp in specific zones. Harder to bring temp back up quickly.

Good grill, but...

It's very good at cooking food, but... they put really cheap wheels on this Grill and when they swivel under the base they hit the base and lock the wheel so that it is very difficult to move around. I store the grill in a specific spot and when I use it I pull it out away from the house to use. I've been dragging this thing around for a while. I called Napoleon and they sent me the premium wheels but they didn't send someone to swap them out. Since the wheels are on the very bottom, swapping ...

Carrying on Delicous Tradition with Amazing Upgrades!

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) Not only is the Napoleon Rogue XT 625 SIB an incredible grill, but it also holds a special place in my heart because of the cherished tradition it carries. My Dad was a self-proclaimed grilling aficionado, and he always insisted on using Napoleon grills for all our family gatherings. Those were some of the most memorable moments of my childhood, watching him skillfully cook up delicious meals and bonding with loved ones around the grill. Now...

Just falling in line.

As an experienced chef and avid griller my review is as much about the of current state of grill manufacturing rather than a direct critique of the Rogue. I find that the flavor bars those gap bars on grills diminish the cooking power of the grills, extend preheating time, and "soft spots" that effect even cooking and in the end make me feel like it was an innovative way for the manufacture of this type of product to reduce cost. In addition the use of plastic and alternative metals other than...

Great Quality

Build quality is top tier. Loving it so far. Holds steady temp for indirect grilling and does well when direct grilling. Still dialing in the smoker box to keep it from catching fire; haven’t tried soaking the chips yet. Side sear station is amazing. Heats up hotter than my temperature gun will read in under a minute. The grill marks are pretty awesome too. I’d recommend purchasing the Napoleon grill cover to go with it. It’s probably the best quality cover I’ve had for any grill.
