I love my Char Broil Grill
As a single person, I usually don't need much space on the grill - after all, I'm cooking for one. So I got a small, cheap grill just out of college, but cheap grills also come with thing wire grates. After losing more hamburgers through the grate than I care to count, I received this grill as a birthday present. What I like most about this grill are the substantial grates - no more wasted food! - and the wide "counters" on either side of the grill to set the serving platter, tongs, etc. There is a burner on one side, but I haven't tried using it yet. As mentioned in other reviews, the grill is pretty heavy to move, but just moving it a bit on a patio is pretty easy to do. The grill starts easily, and the thermometer on the lid helps you to keep an eye on your food without having to open the lid every few minutes. The grill surface is large, and I've been able to turn on just one burner to cook dinner for myself or all three and host a cookout. It does tend to run pretty hot, so keep your burner(s) on low the first few times you use it until you get a feel for how it heats. This is the second summer I've had this grill, and it's holding up really well. I do have a heavy Weber grill cover to protect it from the weather, but the grill is so solid that it survived a derecho storm last summer and isn't any worse for the wear. I love it!
