Sophia & William Extra Large Charcoal BBQ Grills with 794 SQ.IN. Cooking Area, Heavy Duty Outdoor Barbecue Grill with 2 Individual Lifting Charcoal Tray and 2 Foldable Side Table, Black

This charcoal grill is very well made and feels sturdy right out of the box. The heavy-duty steel construction gives it a premium feel, and it stays stable while cooking. Assembly was straightforward, and all the parts lined up nicely. The cooking space is generous, with a main grate plus a warming rack, making it easy to grill for family or small gatherings. I really like the adjustable charcoal trays—being able to control the heat by raising or lowering them makes a big difference and gives you much better temperature control than basic charcoal grills.

This outdoor charcoal grill works great for backyard cooking. It heats up quickly and gives food a classic smoky flavor. The size is perfect for family gatherings, and it’s easy to clean after use. Solid build quality and good airflow make grilling simple and enjoyable.

I have been searching for a decent grill for a little while. I chose this one and have been extremely satisfied by this grill from the following aspects: I was looking for a large grill with enough space to put extra stuff and with a large oven. This one has two sides that I can use to place meat, vegetables, and so on. Each side has an adjustable shelf for the coal that allows you to adjust the temperature well. I have had few issues with maintaining a constant temperature. The grill has a thermometer and it responds quickly and appears accurate. Since both sides have the adjustable shelf, it has been easy to place slower cooking vegetables on one side at a lower temp with the coals further away, while meat can be cooked on the other side with coals much closer! The gears are very smooth and sturdy. I love this feature since it works so well for fine controlling the temp at different spaces inside the grill. The other features are also nice. The sides can fold up and down and have a number of hooks. I think it has space for 8 different tools or pot holders, though I have only used four of them at a time. The bread heating grill worked well too. It took me about an hour to put the grill together. A wrench and a screwdriver is all you need, everything else is in the package. The instructions are clear, just follow the steps and pics. The only tricky part was putting the adjustable shelves in and there was only one screw that was a bit difficult to get to. It is heavy and I asked my wife to help me and hold a few parts while I was assembling it. The grill has wheels on one side are which is easy for my wife to move it around. If it came with an outdoor cover, then it would perfect. Luckily, my wife got a larger outdoor furniture cover for our patio set and we can use it to cover the grill.

Okay so I put this bbqer together literally yesterday. It too me a good 2 hrs. A lot of comments in reviews on the assembly. This will challenge some. The coal tray install is the step that will require you to look at the assembly guide closely. The lid hinge pieces took me some time to realize the wider pieces are on lid and the narrow ones are on the bottom. Other thean that it is not too bad. As mentioned, it does have a assembly guide with photos how it goes together but it does not have many detailed written instructions to go with it. The quality of materials is okay better than some but cheaper than others in this price range. The tray height adjustments scews seem cluncky but they work ok. It looks nice cosmeticly.

Easy assembly. Eased to move around. The side tables do come down which makes it easier to store. The adjustable grates allow you to control how much direct heat your food gets while cooking. Overall it’s a very good a durable grill.

Over the years I've purchased thousands of items through Amazon -- including some very high-ticket items. Almost every one has been very satisfactory. Not this grill, however -- I've never seen a cheaper, more flimsily constructed pile of scrap metal. As I was assembling the grill, I noticed that the gauge of metal used was quite thin. Once I had it put together, I pulled out the grills. They are made of cheap black wire. I had purchased a relatively inexpensive grill from Home Depot about nine years ago -- the grills for that grill were heavy cast iron. But, I thought "In for a penny . . ." and, about two weeks later fired it up for the first time. Here's a list of problems: the hinged top of the grill does not meet the lower part in the way it should. (This is not a mistake in assembly -- just poorly made.) The bun rack simply made no sense at all -- there are mounting holes, but they don't function. If you close the lid of the grill, the bun rack dives headlong into the food. The poorly translated instructions that came with the grill simply said, "Put the bun rack into the holes." And finally, the lid of the grill has begun to corrode even though I've only owned it for two months. (And I purchased a separate heavy-duty cover to protect the grill from the elements.) It is too late for me to return this -- and given the size of the box, it would be a real ordeal to send it back. So please heed my warning -- don't even think about buying this grill -- unless you want a pile of black metal rusting away on your patio.

What I like, keeping in mind I haven’t actually cooked on this grill yet. I literally assembled it and then wrote this review: 1. Large cooking space 2. Charcoal tray can raise and lower with a crank. This means I can adjust the position of the fire even after I’ve started it. 3. The tables on the side fold down. 4. The side tables have four hooks each, so there’s plenty of places to hang tools, etc. while cooking. 5. Warming tray in the lid. 6. Adjustable side vents and a “chimney” with an adjustable cover in the lid. 7. Built-in thermometer in the lid. 8. It looks sharp! What I’m disappointed about. 1. The lid has a small dent in it. See pictures. 2. The “adjustable” vents on the side are a joke. They’re either open or closed. Manufacturer needs to find a better design for this. Rather than using a locking nut, how about a standard nut with a washer or rubber ring? 3. The grilling grates seem pretty flimsy. I’m sure I’ll be replacing them soon. The grill I’m replacing had much heavier grates. They don’t fit in this grill though. 😞 4. While there’s clearly been thought put into the design (folding side tables with hooks, bottle opener, warming tray, etc.), they all seem pretty cheap and flimsy, with the exception of the side tables. 5. I don’t think the warming tray will even be usable. I couldn’t understand how it was supposed to work. In the picture with the lid up, you’ll see my initial guess at how it should be installed. This is wrong, so if you DO buy this grill, do not go by my picture to see how to install the warming tray. The lid didn’t close. I made an adjustment, and I think I’ve got it right now, but I still don’t understand how it doesn’t just collapse when you put food on it. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 6. One of the adjustable trays doesn’t work perfectly. I have to turn the crank and then push the tray down. It works fine if you’re raising it. If you buy it, and I’m not saying you shouldn’t, have someone help you put it together. I spent almost four hours putting it together by myself. And there were times when I really wanted some help. After all is said and done, I’m excited to try it! I’ll update this review with any other important insights.
