The instructions are overly technical for something so simple. Bolts are all just slightly too long, making it a bit wobbly. Also, I think this thing is meant for really short people. I'm 5'9", and I tower over this thing. Nothing like opening it up and having heat in your face because you have to stand over it to use it. Needs to be 12" taller.
I have put together a LOT of things in my life (as big as a Lifetime 2-door shed and more) and by far, Coleman had the WORST instructions - if you could even call them that. While I enjoyed your video, I really wish you would have gone into more details for the instructions. I couldn't find anything decent and put things together wrong the first time. Even real pictures with close-ups of details would have been more helpful than partial drawings. I might have to do my own TH-cam if I had time. But thanks for the video - I'm just venting about Coleman - nothing you did was wrong - you were just reviewing the product, and I appreciate it.
When I saw this instruction, it took only a minute to find out that the instruction is garbage, so I just threw it away and put them together referring to the picture on the box.
I agree with you!! I can't figure this out for the life of me. I really need help!!! Where can I go to get this put together?? I want to use it for camping!!
Thanks for putting this video together my wife purchased one for me for an anniversary gift and plan on putting it to use when we take kids to do summer activities 2023
He didn't show us putting the legs on cuz he got so freaking pissed off he was yelling and cursing 😊.. didn't want youtube to take down his video..hahahaha
Just purchased my second one. My first one lasted about 10 years. Note the the grill grate will chip eventually but I believe you can purchase it separate or use some foil with holes in it. Great for beach grilling too
Instructions tell you to cook off any oils (natural or from manufacturing) right after assembly by setting the grill on high for 15 min and closing the lid. I didn't see you do that. So if the grill has any type of lube or coating on it before hand, you seasoned the unclean grill top with cooking oil and coated your steaks with it. Yummy. Never saw you wash the grate with soap and water before seasoning it either. If you would have at least heated it up for that 15 min, you could have gotten away with using a spray bottle and steaming away any impurities as you wiped the grill top as you sprayed. Then because of the water cool down you just let it continue on high heat for another minute before adjusting to your desired temp. Then you could use your seasoning oil
I really liked it. i purchased one a few days ago, surfed the web for hours trying to find a vide to put the dang legs together and after two hours i figured it just by watching and replaying and pausing repeatedly the only 5 unuseful videos i found. the ignite button does not work. I have to use the lighter. nice video thoug... it helps me to assemble the legs
I’ve had mine for two years now I wish they made an accessory for. I can make it a table top. I believe it’s too short the legs are too bulky. For packing and when cleaning very unstable, but other than that, I cooked great.
Nice vid, just bought one also, love the Berner instrumental . Looked like the flame was a little high for being on low, hope I'm wrong. We'll find out this Saturday.
@@thevarsitydad6634 I did notice the flame is high, even at a low setting. But it worked for my sons soccer game perfectly. We had 2 games in 1 day and a lot of time between. Told the team we were gonna bbq and everyone pitched in. Definitely beat spending money on fast food.
I have purchased 2 propane grills one was a colemen brand and both burned everything on the lowest setting. On this video I was hoping it would be different but from what I saw it burned the steaks. Why are these propane grills doing this? It's so frustrating. I cannot find any discussions on this. My home propane grill does not so this. I am wondering if it is because of the smaller 1 gallon propane tanks. Maybe these are the problem. My home grill uses the standard 20 gallon tank and no burn? ugg.

Sorry. I thought everyone had these stuffed in the garage. They are 1LB Propane Tanks from Coleman. There might be other brands out there? They can be found at any camping supply store and maybe even a grocery store. I had an old twin burner Coleman stove and a lantern that I used them with. I put a link in the description to a case of 6.
Great review video! Nice editing dude! Question on the grill: is that grate really cast iron or is it porcelain coated stamped steel? I don't own one, but was looking at purchasing one recently.
You’re not supposed to refill them and then drive on the roads with them you can refill them at your campsite but not refill them at your house on the drive to new campsite they’re not DOT approved for that
I bought one of these on July 3rd for the holiday-worst grill I've ever owned in my life. The instructions for assembly are nothing more than ancient Egyptian pictographs so you WILL have to take apart and reassemble several times to get it right. On the 4th, I tried to cook a slab of ribs on the grill and it would not stay lit. Never got hot even on high setting. Ended up cooking in the oven instead. The grill has no thermometer and no gauge to see how much propane is left. Today is the 5th and Mr. Coleman is going to give me my money back. DO NOT PURCHASE THIS GRILL! (Or steal one; you'd be wasting your time)
Mine wouldn't light either. I used a regular long lighter for that moment. After I used the grill and let it cool, I removed the grill plate and notice the the angled pin that was supposed to ignite the flame....was too far to the right. I gently turned the pin over to the left so it would line up with a hole in the venturi. That worked. It was just trying to ignite on a solid part and wasn't anywhere near a hole. You'd think that the propane would eventually get there but I decided NOT to let the gas build up.............just to see if it eventually would.
Those instructions that came with it sucked. 79 languages, all just as vague, I'm sure. Tried watching an assembly video on TH-cam but, no. Well, I can only screw it up only 2/3 times so....
Thanks for the review. 5:42 $1 buys cast iron to cook on Treat the metal with paint on it as a heat shield and always use a better heating surface to touch your food. It’s cheap to do.
It would have helped to watch how you get the darn legs together. The instructions are non-existent.
😂I was about to comment what you said
Yeah just did this in the dark. It’s like IKEA wrote these instructions….

The instructions are not that bad in my opinion I put it together in like 10 min

It does burn hot regardless of the heat level keep this in mind

Thanks for this review I just bought one incase the power goes out its hurricane season in Texas where I live. This video really helped me out a lot.
Glad I could help.

Thanks for the review. I bought one after watching the video. One question remaining, what do you do with the chain?
That chain is a wood match holder in case your starter stops working. I disconnected it.
@@thevarsitydad6634 awesome thanks. I would have never considered that.
Nice work! You got me hungry

Just picked it up clearance at target for $65
Love the video keep it up
Skip the hardest, part of the assembly… Seriously
Thank you much for this video man

@@candacejeffries2057 I think it's more of a camping grill , possibly for using a skillet, or quick meats like burgers and hot dogs.
What do you do for a living? Your property is beautiful

Thanks bro! Just bought one at target because of your video. You should get a cut. Lol
Nice!!
I have an old one no longer working. can I use as either for charcoal or as a self contained small fire pit? Thoughts?
Hi you kept twisting the can I was trying to see what was the name of it

Great review video! Nice editing dude! Question on the grill: is that grate really cast iron or is it porcelain coated stamped steel? I don't own one, but was looking at purchasing one recently.
Thank you! I was incorrect in the video. It is porcelain coated stamped steel. I was impressed with the weight of it. Thanks for pointing that out.
@@thevarsitydad6634 Great to know! Thanks for the update.
I literally have no idea how to put this grill together. If anyone finds a instruction video please send the link. I’m dying to use the grill already
How long does that propane usually last ?
You’re not supposed to refill them and then drive on the roads with them you can refill them at your campsite but not refill them at your house on the drive to new campsite they’re not DOT approved for that
Update...legs weren't that hard at all. Jus don't overthink it. I love this grill...😊
Are you able to disconnect the stand/wheels and cook with it while being level ?
No. The drip tray would be in the way.
i was looking for clarification on how to assemble the legs. the paper instructions SUCK.
I have one and I love it.
how long can you grill on a small can ?
1hr per 1lb for every 10000btu. This has a 10000btu burner so ~2hrs for each 2lb bottle.
1lb bottle medium heat about 3 1/2 hours
propane can is stuck and cold i am trying ro remove it need help what should i do
The tank getting cold is normal. It will come off. Righty tighty, lefty loosey! :)
I want a video of your pool 🏊♀️ place…. Looking to renovate mine
Maybe this summer. :)
Is there a assemble video? Putting the legs together is a pain in the ass!
Sorry no. We will try to cover more details in future videos.

I clean mine at the carwash
Brilliant. I hope not with the brush.
Hi, how long did you cook your steak for?
You can cook it as long as you want
What is that silver chain for that hangs?
Putting a match in it to light it so you dont burn your fingers
Your help was no better wtf
Right?! The part to connect the legs is what we want to see plz
Para que sirve la cadenita que cuelga?
No se. Yo pensaba la misma. Voy a comprar uno hoy y si lo averiguo te lo digo.
Para el cerillo
Where does the chain go?
Don't worry about the chain. It just gets in the way. It's there to hold a wooden match in case your starter doesn't work.
Review was great but do not cook wings on this grill, you will retreat it🕯
Why is that?
Did you have problems getting it to ignite? I just got one and I'm not sure what the problem is
No problem starting mine. If you are sure you have fuel use a long lighter or wood match to get a flame. Be careful!
Mine wouldn't light either. I used a regular long lighter for that moment. After I used the grill and let it cool, I removed the grill plate and notice the the angled pin that was supposed to ignite the flame....was too far to the right.

Would've been great if all lstand pieces came in it smh
I wish it was taller
Does anyone know an easy way to make it taller?
Them steaks not done bro
You crazy. He damn near overcooked it
Blew thru assembly. Fail
Thanks for the review.
