Didn't live up to expectations


Problems right out of the gate with confusing instructions for assembling the natural gas version of the grill. The link for video instructions on the Broil King site didn't work, then pointed to older model instructions.  Upon assembly, one burner didn't work, which eventually required a whole new regulator, which was a pain to install. The grill itself is fine, but you'd expect better quality (and better service) for premium price paid. Customer service doesn't seem to even care how bad an experience you're having with the product!

Good features and well constructed for the price.


I bought this a month ago and so far very satisfied.  One issue that I do have is with the placement of the propane tank on the Baron series.  It sits in a hole for stability I assume but that makes it very difficult to install and remove.  Broil king needs to do a retrofit or an option that is similar to the Regal series with its pull out shelf.

The VERY Best Grill I've Ever Seen


At almost 70 years old I can't count how many grills I've put together and then put to the curb due to rusting out after 2 to 3 years.  The stainless steel Broil King is built so well it's hard to find enough superlatives to describe the thing completely.  It definitely is a tad expensive however!  After putting it together I just stood back and smiled as I felt I'd created a work of art.  Really wasn't happy with the hard copy manual but I found a video online that made assembly super simple and eliminated all the frustration the paper manual would have caused.  Starting the grill, no matter which of the 4 burners I select, is a breeze.  I have never had so much control of the temperature as I've found with my Broil King.  It truly is a grill that has been engineered by people that know grills and then who picked the very best components to build the thing.  Truly amazing!

Good Beef on the Baron


Have used this exact unit for 1.5 years thru Alberta summers and winters on NG and it never fails to give a great result. Not sure what the person that can only cook on a 6x6 portion is doing. Maybe they assembled the unit backwards? Beef, chicken, pork or veggies come out evenly done if you know how to adjust the 4 burners correctly. As the manuals says” keep your lid down for best results”.

Disappointed


I researched bbq s a lot before choosing this bbq. Features I wanted were even heat for cooking and a back burner and rotisserie. However, I can only cook on one side in a 6x6 inch area. I have owned $200.00 dollar bbqs previously which worked much better.

Don't buy this piece of junk


The grill uses cheap plastic parts to connect the cabinet to the wheels. The plastic strips out and the cabinet disconnects. You'll be stuck with a piece of junk that leaks grease all over your patio.
