What Customers Are Saying
The Charcoal Basket is a well-made accessory that improves the performance and convenience of Kamado-style grills. Users praise its excellent build quality, increased airflow, and ease of cleaning. The basket helps save charcoal by allowing reuse of unburnt pieces, and the divider feature facilitates indirect cooking. However, some customers note the basket may not fit perfectly with the Divide & Conquer rack, and the wide grate spacing can cause small charcoal pieces to fall through, requiring more cleanup. Overall, the Charcoal Basket is considered a valuable accessory that enhances the grilling experience for most users.
