Char-Broil 06401206 Grill-2-Go Advantage Portable Outdoor Gas Grill Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Before I purchased this grill I was looking for the Char-Broil Fire & Ice Grill (the one with the cooler below); however they have discontinued it for some weird reason. So I researched this one for my tailgate and decided to give it a try. I normally use charcoal however it is such a mess and the smoke blows over into others tailgates which is a little rude.
PROS: Great portable grill; love the side tables; 16 oz propane tank lasted hours (which is very nice); cute little extras like a flag and extra propane tank holder, a holder for paper towels and a holder for the propane tank in use; LED lights are a nice touch; very light considering how large this grill is; has a Non-Stick Teflon coated griddle (good for breakfast items); has a grease collector under the grill; has an ignitior, very easy to setup and start cooking
CONS: You have to assemble this grill out of the box (takes about an hour) and this was disappointing;
MOST DISAPPOINTING FEATURE...you cannot just extend the legs of the base and start grilling, you must take the grill off, extend the legs and set the grill on top of the base, this again applies if you want to collapse the grill, you must take the grill off the base collapse the legs and place the grill back on top; does not have a propane gauge letting you know how much gas is left; make sure it is on a level surface, we tried to make scrambled eggs and they ran off the griddle down to the bottom of the grill
Overall if you can catch this grill on sale it is worth the money (purchased mine for around $160 on Amazon). I still believe a $200 grill should have some extra features like a propane gauge, and the grill should be able to setup without taking it on and off the base.
***PS:Thermos sells a carrying bag for the Grill 2 Go; however it does NOT fit this model. You can fit the grill but not the legs. Returned the carrying bag to Amazon and had my $40 refunded.***

Designed with on-the-go grillers in mind, this collapsible gas grill with wheels works as well on the back deck or patio as it does at the beach, campsite, or a tailgating party. The unit provides open-flame grilling with two independently controlled stainless-steel burners, 16,000 BTUs of heat, and a 308-square-inch cooking surface with porcelain-coated cooking grates for anything from hot dogs and hamburgers to salmon fillets, slabs of fresh pineapple, and veggie shish-kabobs. Even more, its nonstick Teflon-coated 140-square-inch griddle makes pancakes and eggs possible, even in the great outdoors. The grill can be used as a standard unit with dual locking legs or as a tabletop grill by removing the grill body; it operates using either a 1-pound LP cylinder or a 20-pound LP tank with an optional adapter. It also comes with a rotary ignition, a die-cast aluminum grill base, and a removable grease drawer for quick cleanup. Other highlights include folding side shelves with tool hooks and a carrying handle, a paper-towel holder, an onboard storage bin and trash-bag holder, a flag holder, and an LED light that attaches to the handle for grilling in the dark (light requires four AA batteries, not included). When finished grilling, the two-piece porcelain cooking grate cleans up easily by hand or in the dishwasher. The portable gas grill measures 21 by 56 by 34-1/4 inches fully assembled and 33 by 21 by 20 inches when folded.
