Ratings & Reviews for Master Forge Medium 540-Sq.In 22.17-in W Black porcelain coated Kettle Charcoal Grill

Great bbq

It is great. We did notice that the grill bars are wide, so be careful when grilling things like hot dogs. I love the way the lid stays attached. The charcoal catcher's has a plastic handle, it was dropped and cracked so we super glued it and its fine. All in all we like it very much.

Seems sturdy and well-built.

If you have it assembled check everything before use. Nuts missing, bolts/screws not tightened, etc. I had spare parts on hand that fit. They did the hard part aligning and completing 98% of assembly. I've cooked a couple of meals on it and it worked quite nicely. I've had some less-expensive barbecues that had issues with airflow using the built-in vents, where you had to cook with the lid partially open to keep the coals going strong. This one thankfully does not have that issue. I'm over...

Cheap

Two Thumbs Up

Easy to put together and works great.

Great grill!

We love this grill it is perfect for our needs. If you’re 5”6” or shorter it is perfect for you any taller you might be hunching over a bit. It does not fold but it is really easy to clean. You can grill quite a bit of food on there at once. Very happy with my purchase!

Good grill, cooks nicely

Quit a nice grill for the money. Be prepared to assemble, but the instructions are good, the hardware is clearly labeled and minimal tools are required, a wrench is included as well. Cooked with it for the first time this evening, and it did a great job.

Great barbeque

For an inexpensive charcoal grill, this has great features. Secondary removable shelf, thermometer, hinged top, ash containment, small shelf

Be prepared to modify this grill

I like the overall grill but the attention to detail was lacking. One of the hinges wouldn’t line up so I had to drill another hole to get it to fit. The upper grate kept falling down because the grate ends would not stay in the hole, so I had to bend them with pliers so it would stay put.

Have Lowes assembly the grill before pickup

Nice grill, put together well

Great grill

I have several smokers, grills and griddles that use propane. I wanted a small grill that used charcoal and at a good price. This grill was exactly what I needed and it is amazing. It cooked steak and salmon to perfection and the clean-up is super easy. It is perfect for my wife and I when cooking for two. I highly recommend.

Better than I thought!!

Had a gas grill and it blew up on me. So I took a chance and I'm so glad I did. With free assembly offered by Lowe's that sold me. I would highly recommend this grill. Especially with propane prices being sky high.

Love this grill

This grill is very functional. Having the outside thermostat helps to know the exact temp inside. The food grill rack is large with lots of cooking space and is coated so food doesn’t stick. Venting slot at top works well. But the nicest feature is the ash holder underneath. It is a nice size and heaviness with an easy accessible handle extremely easy to collect and dispose of ashes. With Lowes offering free assembly, it was just an added bonus. I would highly recommend this grill.

Hard to put together

Had to go back to Lowes to buy parts to finish putting the grill together. I wxpect a few extra screws not to be shortchanged.

Grillin

Missing parts & parts broken. But it was free assembly and manufacturer took quick response and replacement parts arrived within a week

Good size

Good size grill, has ash can, easy to move around . They did a great hob on assembly and was ready when promised.

Perfect for the occasion.

great size.. directions suck ( take all the screws out and group them sperated.. after (simple) lid assembly you can figure the rest. cooling rack sucks hopefully it holds. the grill itself is perfect for an inexpensive bar b q ... I'd say yes to purchasing
