Features

  • ELECTRIC GRILL: This grill is powered by electricity to give you the convenience of grilling without the hassle of gas or charcoal. It reaches cooking temperatures quickly, delivers high temps and maintains even heat.
  • COOKING TECHNOLOGY: TRU-Infrared cooking technology prevents flare-ups, delivers even heat and cooks up to 50% juicier food. Heat is transferred from the coil to the grate and drippings are vaporized, sending the flavor back into your food.
  • COOKING AREA: Grill up to 12 burgers, 6 chicken breasts or 4 steaks on 320-square-inches of total cooking space. Cook meats and larger items on the primary grates and use the warming rack to cook with indirect heat and keep food warm.
  • CONTROL KNOB: The control knob powers the grill on and adjusts cooking temperatures. Turn clockwise to increase the heat and counterclockwise to decrease.
  • GRATES: These steel grates are porcelain-coated to resist rust and make them easier to clean. They retain heat to cook food evenly and leave impressive grill marks.
  • TEMP GAUGE: The lid-mounted temperature gauge displays accurate temps, so you always know the cooking temperature inside your grill.
  • BOTTOM SHELF: A convenient wire shelf under the grill keeps your tools within reach.
  • HANDLE: A handle located below the control knob makes it easy to tilt the grill onto its wheels for easy mobility. You can also use it as a tool bar and towel rack.
  • WHEELS: Two heavy-duty 7-inch wheels with rubber treads make it easy to roll your grill when you need to move it.
  • GREASE TRAY: A removable grease tray catches oil drippings and slides out for easy cleaning. You can insert an aluminum liner to catch the drippings and keep the grease pan clean. When youre all done, simply throw the liner away.

  • Great Buy!
Color: Black Style: Grill
New to being on my own, 64 years old and I found this fairly simple to assemble. I didn’t want to mess with charcoal or propane and I looked at many reviews on this electric grill. I have only cooked on it twice but it has worked out great. I let it warm up on high for about 20 mins and it is ready to go. It is also easy to clean. I will add that heat does escape once you open the lid so don’t leave it open too long. The size is good and seems to be very stable! Perfect for me! ... show more

  • Switching to electric
Color: Black Style: Grill
Due to new rules in our condo association, I had to switch from a gas grill to electric for my balcony. I looked at quite a few electric options before deciding on the Char-Broil Patio Bistro. There's definitely a learning curve going from gas to electric when it comes to the actual cooking but, I'm not doing too bad. The new Char-Broil grill is absolutely wonderful and I'm very happy with it. It arrived as pictured and with all parts. There were no unexpected surprises putting it together. I love the size and the food that I've tried so far is coming out quite well. It sears steaks as I'd hoped and food has a good grilled taste. I highly recommend this grill. ... show more

  • It is the best, if only good choice for apartment balconies
Color: Red Style: Grill
As others have stated, there is a maximum amount of wattage thar a normal household outlet will allow. In the US, that is 15 amps or approximately 1600 watts. This means that this little guy will not get super hot, but it gets hot enough. It grills food well. I like to spray a little basting sauce (mostly cooking oil) on the grate occasionally to add smoke. I have found it lacking in nothing in terms of flavor, grill marks or heat distribution. I cook on number 5 always, and that is enough to grill, but never burn. As others have mentioned. The temperature gauge is not all that accurate, but it is also unnecessary. Set the dial to 5 and cook. That'd it. It was a more complicated build than I imagined, but I like that stuff. I do wish that the grill had a built in shelf. I believe the previous model did. I believe that the feature wa as deleted as it could have caused tipping problems. I justuse an old TV tray next to the grill. It isso easy, convenient and attractive that it compliments any outdoor space. Never have to buy propane. Never had a flare up. The grates are fairly non stick and are much better than the thin wire bars of some grills. Because it is so simple and easy, I do most all of my cooking on it. ... show more

  • If you have to go electric…I guess this works
Color: Red Style: Grill
Our stupid condo association decided that they would outlaw gas grills, and gave us all a couple of weeks to convert. I’ve had a Coleman camping grill that I have used for years and it is awesome. Runs on the little propane tanks, and gets really really hot. But, alas, it needed to be hidden so that an electric grill could take its place. The Char- Broil is a huge pain in the you know what to put together. Seriously, real grills are always a pain, but this one is really special with the hoops it makes you jump through. But…. Once you get it together…It still sucks…takes forever to heat up, and if your extension cord isn’t rated high enough, the cord will trip either the internal fuse or your fuse box. Took 5 times before it got over 400 degrees…it now will get to 450, but you have to do it right off the bat, and don’t you dare touch it our lift the lid or you’re doomed. I really want to like this grill, but it is just weak and sad, but really good looking…so I guess I’ll keep trying. I hate bad reviews, so take this one as you will… ... show more

  • Ability to sear steaks and long term reliability
Color: Black Style: Grill
I have 3 total of these. Two are table top and this new one is a patio version. The two older table top have been going since the first and second year they came out. Only issue is on one of them I had to recalibrate the thermostat because it got to where the grill was on when thermostat was cut back to off. One of the cons on this new patio version is the light is on all of the time so you don’t know when the element is on or off. The other is on a windy day it takes a lot longer cooking time because of the wider vent gap at the rear making this version a lot less energy efficient. See pictures above. The 2 tabletop version have seen a lot of use and have been very reliable. These are really good for the high heat needed to seer steaks and long term reliability. ... show more

  • Slow cooking, doesn't keep temp as soon as you open the lid
Color: Red Style: Grill
Overall, the grill works. Extremely slow cooking in the winter, slow cooking in the summer. I even added ceramic coal tiles to hold the heat better. I wanted electric for ease. It would have been easier to stick to gas. And sooo much faster grilling. The grill looks good and I got the matching cover which is also nice. ... show more

  • Great grill without gas
Color: Red Style: Grill
I like to BBQ but don’t want to mess with propane or charcoal. I’m not a BBQ purist obviously. But this little grill is so easy to use, I love it. I grilled steaks, chicken skewers, hamburgers, and heated up garlic bread all at the same time. It did a great job, everything tasted great. Cleanup was not bad. I just removed the grill and brought it in and scrubbed it. We have bears in our area so you don’t want to leave anything with food smells out. Overall I’m very happy. ... show more

  • BROKEN after 5 months! **CAUGHT FIRE/FLAWED ENGINEERING** DO NOT BUY THIS!
Color: Red Style: Grill
I'm not the type of person to leave negative reviews unless it's truly deserved, but this was one of those cases. First off, even if the grill had kept working, it still wouldn't have gotten 5 stars because it doesn't get nearly as hot as it indicates. It says it gets to 500 degrees, but it wouldn't get nearly as hot as my last grill at 400 degrees. As someone who loves high heat for medium-rare and grill marks, I wasn't a fan of the lower temperature. That said, it would've been a solid grill, if it hadn't stopped working after just 5 months, so I called Charbroil, and they sent me possible parts to fix it. They wanted to charge me shipping and handling--I was able to at least avoid that--but they didn't send any tools or instructions, so I basically had to remember how to disassemble it and install the new parts. *** After setting the grill up with the new parts, it took 1 week for the grill to catch fire. I literally started smoking and the plastic part in the front CAUGHT FIRE. This grill didn't last 6 months and the engineering is clearly flawed and unsafe. DO NOT BUY THIS *** ... show more
