BBQTek Split Lid Gas Grill Model #SSS3416TB
This configuration in a dual-head (split lid) grill is one I like. On one side you have a standard 3-burner gas grill and on the other side you have an infrared sear station. This lets you sear steaks (or other foods) in an independent zone while still having plenty of space for regular grilling. This also cuts down the wear and tear on your...

Brinkmann 5-Burner Gas Grill with Refrigerator Model# 810-9590-S
The only feature on this grill that makes it stand out is the small refrigerator set in the grill cabinet. This brings up my first rule on grill buying, if you don't need it, don't buy it. This small (1.6 cubic foot) refrigerator will make ice and hold some beer, but if this isn't something you don't definitely need, then don't buy this grill....
Brinkmann Pro Series 2600
Brinkmann Pro Series 2600 Gas Grill Review. As far as basic gas grills go this is a relatively good unit. You get nice features like four cast iron burners and a side burner for good versatility. The cart could be stronger but all in all a pretty good grill.

Char-Broil 4-Burner Gas Grill Model #463440109
This is a typical $200 Char-Broil gas grill. Offering 4 main burners and a low powered side burner you get a basic function grill for a low price, but don't plan on it lasting very long. The lightweight cooking grates, burners and burner covers won't take a lot of punishment and will start to corrode early. If you are only interested in a grill...
Char-Broil 4-Burner Stainless Steel (model #463420508)
This is the bottom of the "stainless steel" grills. For around $260 you can buy this Char-Broil grill from Home Depot that features the Char-Broil side burner/oven with griddle. Unfortunately, this grill uses the lowest quality stainless steel and metal as thin as you can buy. The question is, why would you want to buy this grill. I can bend the...

Perhaps the most innovative mass market grill on the market this year (2008), the Char-Broil RED is a low cost, all infrared gas grill.

Uniflame 36,000 BTU Gas Grill
You'd think that at about $170USD this would be a pretty good grill for the money. You'd be wrong. This grill doesn't cut back in a few areas, it cuts back in all of them.
