When I purchased the Char-Broil T480 3-Burner 40,000 BTU Gas Grill I did so for several reasons: features, reliability and price. For me the Char-Broil had more of what was important than any other grill I looked at.

Assembly:
On a difficulty rating I'd give this a 7 and I've put together everything from Bikes to Ikea Furniture. Out of the box this didn't scare me, but it did take about 45-60 minutes from start to finish.

Use & Features:
It has an electronic ignition for all of the burners. My only complaint so far is that the button is rubber and dried up very quickly from the heat. Mine detached from the grill, but still works as long as it doesn't get lost.
The warming rack although a great idea, hasn't really been useful to us. Even though it's raised up on the back portion of the grill it takes... Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Bad grill...bad grill!, February 17, 2011

I've had this grill for 2 years. It hasn't worked properly since we purchased it. We purchased it assembled at a local store. The ignitor is useless. It never works...and sometimes just clicks constantly...very dangerous. Rust is the biggest problem...clean-up is a nightmare. I have huge chunks of rust after storing this thing in a garage throughout the winter and with a cover during spring and summer. It's crazy! Wish we would have went with a different grill...cooking wasn't too bad...although the temperature gauges are worthless...it's either really hot, or really low...doesn't seem to be a lot in the middle. Sorry...bad grill. Don't buy.
