Our verdict

The size and offset firebox make it a useful budget grill, but the spread of assembly and part-quality complaints means it is worth inspecting every piece before finishing setup.

Overview

Kendane's barrel-style charcoal grill pairs a 550 sq in cooking area with an offset firebox, porcelain-enameled grates and a chrome-plated warming rack, on two wheels with a front shelf for prep space.

  • 550 sq in cooking area, fits about 18 burgers
  • Offset firebox for a second cooking zone
  • 4-level adjustable charcoal pan with lid thermometer
  • Two wheels plus front and bottom shelves

Who it's for

Fits a budget-minded buyer who wants a compact charcoal grill with side-firebox flexibility and does not mind inspecting parts closely on arrival. Less suited to anyone who wants trouble-free assembly out of the box or a grill that matches its listing photos in size.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • 550 sq in main grate fits up to 18 burgers
  • Offset firebox adds a second cooking zone
  • Two wheels and a side handle for repositioning
  • Lower barrel height suits grilling from a seated position
Cons
  • Multiple reports of assembly defects: cracked grill section, bad handle, ill-fitting firebox lid
  • Does not include an ash pan
  • Some buyers found it smaller than the listing photos suggest

Performance notes

The 4-level height-adjustable charcoal pan and lid-mounted thermometer are the main heat controls, with an adjustable chimney helping regulate airflow. The side firebox gives a second, smaller cooking zone for warming or sauces, separate from the main 550 sq in grate. Porcelain-enameled grates and the chrome warming rack are built to resist rust and clean up easily once the grill is running.
