Fire up the backyard with a four-burner grill

Questions and answers

How much cooking space does the Kingchii 4-burner offer?

It lists 542 sq in total across the main grates, with a 25 in wide cooking surface. That is roughly enough for a dozen burgers or two small chickens at once, not a large party.

Does it come with a propane tank?

No. It runs on a standard propane tank that you supply and secure inside the cabinet base. Check the regulator and hose are included in the box before first use.

Is the side burner useful or just filler?

It is a real second cooking zone for boiling corn, warming sauce or frying outdoors. It shares the same fuel supply, so running it lowers heat available to the main burners.

How hard is assembly?

Assembly is required and typically takes an hour or two with two people. The cabinet panels and side table are the fiddly parts; have a screwdriver and wrench ready.

How does it compare with a Weber or Char-Broil four-burner?

It costs less and includes a side burner and table, but those brands offer heavier grates, better heat retention and wider parts support. Choose the Kingchii for light use on a budget.

Can it be used on a balcony?

Its 47 x 20 in footprint fits many balconies, but check local rules first. Open-flame grills are banned on some balconies and in some apartment buildings.
