What I liked

  • “I'm able to get easily 10 burgers and it definitely could have fit more if you squeeze them in a lot tighter.” 2:15
  • “This is potentially the last charcoal grill you need to buy… because it has a lifetime warranty.” 6:01
  • “Just like all of Solo Stove's other products, it is made out of high quality steel.” 0:00
  • “I think the size is spot on… it's definitely not a small grill but it's definitely not overly huge either.” 3:45
  • “Dumped out the remainder of the ash, which really wasn't that much ash left in the bottom.” 6:01

What I didn't like

  • “There is no thermometer or thermostat in this grill… and that is my only complaint of this grill.” 2:15
  • “Eight minutes was a little bit too long, but again it takes some trial and error.” 3:00
  • “For the normal prices… that to me just pushes it a little bit over the edge.” 7:31
