Product Review: Brinkmann 5-Burner Grill with Sear and Side Burners





We picked up the Brinkmann 5-Burner Grill with Sear and Side Burners based upon the many positive reviews on The Home Depot site. I've used it several times now and am truly enjoying it.

The heat on the ends seems to be more intense than in the middle, but I haven't used all five burners together yet. Assembly was easy, and despite being more difficult to clean, it's significantly better than our old gas grill. I find if I take a bunch of wet paper towels and place them on the burners while they are still warm, they wipe up easier.

My only complaint is that packaging and shipping could have been a bit better. There are several scratches on the back of the grill and the chain for the match lighter was broken off. The side burner will only match light, so we have to call Brinkmann to see if there is a problem with the connections. The delivery company left the grill on our front porch without even ringing the doorbell or asking for a signature. This didn't give me the time to inspect the packaging. The box was slightly torn on top, but otherwise intact.

Overall we are very satisfied with our purchase and would recommend this grill. With the new lower price on The Home Depot site, plus free shipping, this grill is definitely a great value.


Model #810-8501-S
