I have used this grill twice now, and I am so impressed. With ano lighter fluid small bag of charcoal from the grocery store, I havebeen able to cook 2-3 full grills of meat both times. Easy cleanif you place foil over the round metal charcoal catch pan, and sprayyour grill with Pam for grilling. I also put a sheet of foil on the insideand poke holes through for the venting. I shut the vents to let it cooland once cool bring it in and set it on the stove after dumping thecoals in a bag. Then, I can clean it at my convenience. Who everthinks you need a huge grill to throw down on the BBQ is deadwrong. You will not go wrong in buying this product. My goal is to seehow long I can make it last over the years.
