This grill is very sturdy and a great price
The ground wire is not short, I repeat the ground wire is not short. The ground wire gets connected to the handle. It's simple just follow the instructions. I usually put things together without the instructions but this time I had to use it and it took me about 15 to 20 minutes to put it all together. I forgot to order propane with it so now I'm on my way to Walmart to buy propane.

Unfortunately handle was broken upon arrival.
Would say 5 stars but the handle is broken in half. Don't want to go through the hassle of returning otherwise great item. So disappointed don't think it's sad to use with only one handle and glue I would be afraid would catch fire. If it's not broken it looks pretty well made and compact. Of course it's the handle with the ignition in it.

    PUSH START is only reason I bought a new one!
    There was NOTHING WRONG with my other model except they came out with this one and it had push-to-start… and I wanted that! Best $35 you'll ever spend! Store in a small storage closet etc to keep out of weather and you'll never need to purchase another. Allows me to grill the most expensive steaks as well as my favorite restaurants! This grill is as equally good as any other open flame grill with all the bells and whistles— that said, cooking a wonderful steak falls on the chef as well!

    Great grill!
    It doesn't take long to put it together but you do need a screwdriver. It's a nice little grill, very portable and light weight. I haven't cooked on it yet but everything is working as it should. Initially I was having trouble with the ignition spark because the wire was pointing on the wrong direction but it was a very easy fix. This is great for a quick tailgate cookout at the lake or for camping.

    You left off the kit description
    This is not a grill! It is a grill kit!! Unless you are assembly professional leave it.

    Occasional Use Only
    This Product is ok. I wasn't happy that they grease drips everywhere. If you are using this while camping and have it on the picnic table. I would advise putting something under it to catch the grease. Also had 2 grease fires. Its good for camping occasionally

    Fantastic Grill for Small Gatherings
    This is the perfect size grill for small gatherings. The only thing to mention is that when assembling it the ground wire is not as long as in instructions. Just connect the ground wire to the side handle. The easy start ignition is fantastic. Let it burn off the "new" for 20 minutes before cooking any food.

    Mfg. OK Walmart not so much
    The package was delivered with concealed damage. The lid and edges were bent making the lid hard to fit properly. I tried to bend and straighten . not right. The original box had one corner with damage ( even looked like someone retapped the corner) and was shipped in outer Walmart box anyway. I'm probably going to return it to Walmart. I've owned similar Char-broiler grills their OK but susceptible the wind

    You get what you pay for…
    I bought this for the RV, we usually buy a “cheap” BBQ every year at the start of the season. This year I bought this one. Putting it together seemed to take our high schooler a long time so when help was offered we quickly realized why. The grounding wire was about 2” too short, so the grill was taken apart and put back together a couple of times to make sure a step wasn't missed, nope, it's just a short wire. The grill works just fine but you have to light it with a lighter. Again, you get what you pay for.

    its what you would exoect for 40 bucks
    Got this and put it together.The igniters ground wire was too short , so I attached it behind the screw for the handle and haven't had an issue with it not working. First time turning it on I had to use a lighter , but I had the sun in my eyes and didnt see the glame so I assumed it didnt start. The regulatornfor it is cheap and the adjustment valve doesn't do a thing. No matter where it's at the valve doesn't adjust the flame. I'm going to replace it with a better with a hose so I can use a stabdard size tank. My initial cook was a couple of chicken thighs I grilled and then cooked with bbq sauce and they didnt stick they were flavorful and juicy. So all things considered it works great, but just be mindful of what you are gettig and how much you pay.

    The thin ground wire is attached to the the grill body with a ring terminal inserted onto the screw that attaches the back end of the handle to the grill. You may have already attached the handles; remove the screw/nut from the portion of the handle nearest the igniter, run screw through ring terminal into the grill, attach nut securely.

    Overall good grill with a couple of small problems
    Make sure you put this together when you can take your time and do it right. The instructions could have been a little better but reading the instructions and looking at the pictures worked well enough. Like a lot of people have said, the ground wire is a little short. It would have worked the way the instructions showed but I put the ground wire on the screw first then put the screw through the handle and washer. It works great and the wire is not pulled tight. (see picture) There are a few small dents in the top of the grill due to the way it was packaged with the legs right against the top but after it gets used for awhile i am sure it will pick up a few more dents and dings. It is sturdy enough that I think it will last for several years

    Never Used/Won't Use
    I have given this grill an average rating because I never used it, so I don't know if it's good or poor. The problem was that the on-line description of the product said "Assembly -- No," but it arrived needing considerable assembly, including of ignition parts and quite small parts. Being an older person with little patience or skill to assemble such things, I just chalked it up to lesson learned and put it away. Accordingly, I can't really recommend it to anyone.

    Looks well made except...
    Looks well made for such an inexpensive grill but there was one problem during assembly. The igniter ground wire is way too short. I'll have to splice and extended it to make it work. The photo shows with the screw attached the wire isn't long enough to go through the open end of the handle and reach the igniter button. The positive wire was long enough for the connection.

    Wires too short, assembly instructions too vague
    The grill is unusable because the electrode wire is too short to connect to the electrode--it doesn't reach. Further, the instructions for connecting the electrode wire and ground wire are nonexistent, so even with the correct electrode wire, I don't know how to finish assembling the product. The instructions just say "attach..wire" and "assemble...wire". Attach how?? Assemble how?? I'm no electrician, I need details here.

    Great Product.
    This Gas Grill is a great product, although it takes as much time to assemble it as a big grill. The only thing that I did not like was that the legs have the tendency to bend away from under the grill. I solved this problem by cutting and bending a coat hanger to keep it together. Over all a good product. would buy it again.
