Our verdict

A compact single burner propane grill for small households and tight spaces, not a replacement for a full-size backyard grill.

Overview

Charbroil's single burner propane grill puts 240 square inches of stainless steel cooking area into a 21.3 pound frame that is easy to lift and stow.

One burner rated at 10,000 BTU keeps the footprint and fuel draw modest, which is the point of a grill this size. 240 square inches holds a handful of burgers or a couple of chicken breasts at a time, not a crowd.

  • 10,000 BTU single burner
  • 240 sq in stainless steel cooking area
  • Freestanding, propane fueled
  • 16.2 x 24.8 x 13.3 in, 21.3 lb

Who it's for

Fits someone grilling for one to three people on a balcony, small patio or campsite who does not want to manage multiple burners. Not the choice for anyone regularly cooking for a family or group, where 240 square inches runs out fast.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Stainless steel body resists rust
  • Compact enough for balconies and small patios
  • Easy to lift and store at 21.3 lb
Cons
  • Single burner limits zone cooking
  • 240 sq in cooking area is small for groups

Performance notes

A single 10,000 BTU burner heats the 240 square inch stainless steel cooking area, enough for direct grilling of small cuts but with less margin for zone cooking than multi-burner grills. The freestanding, lightweight build (21.3 lb) makes it easy to move and stow, though a single burner is more affected by wind and cold than a larger grill with more BTU in reserve.
