Quality

Quality is the reason why Cuisinart CCG190RB is so affordable. Metal is very thin, not sturdy at all, legs are wobbly, pretty much whole grill feels more or less flimsy. Some parts feel badly engineered too, for example if you put too much pressure on one side of the grate it might flip over and fall into hot coals.

You can’t really complain considering how inexpensive this grill is however if you want something that will last and is actually well made then you should look at Weber products like Weber Smokey Joe 14-Inch portable grill or Weber Go-Anywhere charcoal grill.

Is fairly simple to assemble however instructions could be more comprehensive.
