The CosmoGrill Barbecue DUO Gas Grill + Charcoal Smoker Portable BBQ in Black has exceeded my expectations in terms of functionality and performance. This versatile grill has become my go-to choice for outdoor cooking, and it has proven to be more than capable of handling large gatherings with ease.First and foremost, the combination of gas grill and charcoal smoker options provides a range of cooking methods to suit different preferences and dishes. The gas grill is incredibly convenient for quick and efficient cooking, while the charcoal smoker adds a distinct smoky flavor that elevates the taste of grilled food. Having both options in one unit offers the flexibility to experiment with various cooking techniques and ensures that every dish turns out flavorful and delicious.I recently hosted a BBQ party for approximately 20 people, and the CosmoGrill Barbecue DUO proved to be more than spacious enough to handle the cooking requirements. The cooking surface is generous, allowing me to grill a large quantity of food simultaneously. The grill also distributes heat evenly, ensuring that all items are cooked to perfection.The build quality of the grill is impressive. It feels sturdy and well-constructed, providing confidence in its durability. The portable design is a bonus, making it easy to transport for camping trips, picnics, or tailgating events.While I am highly satisfied with the performance and features of this grill, I do have a suggestion for improvement. It would be beneficial if the manufacturer provided clearer instructions or diagrams for assembly and usage. While I was able to figure it out eventually, clearer instructions would make the initial setup process more user-friendly for individuals who are less experienced with grills.In conclusion, the CosmoGrill Barbecue DUO Gas Grill + Charcoal Smoker Portable BBQ in Black has become an essential part of my outdoor cooking arsenal. Its versatility, spacious cooking area, and reliable performance make it a top choice for hosting gatherings of any size. With its sturdy construction and portable design, it is a reliable companion for outdoor adventures. I would highly recommend this grill to anyone who appreciates the art of outdoor cooking and desires a versatile and reliable BBQ experience.Suggestion for Improvement: Clearer instructions or diagrams for assembly and usage would enhance the user experience for individuals who are less experienced with grills

I have now used this bar b q 4 or 5 times in both cooking modes and I think that it is great.It takes a while to put it together initially and really needs two people. I found the instructions clear enough, and everything lined up fine.I like using the gas for quick informal cooking and I find the temperature very good; it’s not mega hot and, as usual with these things there are hotter spots than others so you do need to use it a few times to work out what’s where. You can also use this side on a really low setting to keep food that you have cooked on the charcoal side warm, or resting.The charcoal side is great and it’s easy to vary the cooking temperature with the controls available. The charcoal tray is easy to lift out and empty after use and, whilst it is a bit tricky getting to the bottom to clear any residue, I tend to use an old hand held Dyson with a long attachment now and again if needs be.I haven’t used the smoker section yet as I put the wood chips on the charcoal for smoke, but I do use it for storage which is very handy.My only niggle is with the food storage rack on the gas section; the design of this means that when you place the cooked food on it with the lid open, the rack is located over the vents in the back of the hood which means that any drips will go through the openings and onto the floor. This is easily solved by using silver foil, either wrapped under the rack or as a sort of tray over the openings, but it’s not a well thought through design.Other than that, brilliant and thoroughly recommended.

Very pleased with this bbq. Cooks well.

Versatile & plenty of options

The product arrived very quickly. Assembly instructions are not great and assembly far from quick or easy. A major problem arose when installing burners. I assumed some error of mine and it took hours trying to disassemble and work out what I had done wrong. After sending the company a video they told me that an incorrect metal plate had been installed by them! The correct plate was sent and I had to disassemble and install. Agreed Pizza stone and stainless steel burner protectors provided to compensate for my inconvenience. I managed to install and can now use the bbq. It is good on both sides and gas side gives decent results unlike some reviewers. Despite the hiccup I would recommend the product and communications re problem were swift and helpful

The grilling surface does not get hot, even after 20 minutes with the lid down. I have attached some picture of chicken that I made 1 cm thick, this was on the grill for 5-minutes a side on high, total cooking time of 10 minutes, and it looks completely anemic.The seller has tried to blame me for not using the BBQ correctly. I have tried 3 different regulators and two different bottles with the same very low grilling temperature. The seller has said this is an indirect cooking Grill and says the grill should not get hot on the grilling surface and is used more like an oven. I have never heard of such nonsense, I have owned many different BBQs and I have never had this problem. After needing to open a claim with amazon the seller eventually accepted the BBQ back but only offered me a 50% refund, after further discussions with Amazon I got my full money back. I am very disappointed with this seller but as always Amazon has been extremely helpful and I did eventually get my full money back, even though it did take two weeks. I would not recommend this BBQ to anyone, I would give it 0 stars if I could

A nightmare to assemble, easier when we ignored the instructions and worked it out ourselves. On the upside, definitely worth it once assembled
