Fiesta 2-Burner Model# 24025

Onward Manufacturing Company

The Bottom Line

Like most of the least expensive 2-burner gas grills on the market, this Fiesta Gas Grill at various stores this is lightweight and thin unit. Of course, for under $100USD you can't expect a lot. Fiesta Gas Grill is now a property of Onward Manufacturing. This grill is very similar to the other grills in this price range. Expect a flimsy grill that can do a pretty good job of grilling some burgers.

Guide Review - Fiesta 2-Burner Model# 24025

After years of problems Fiesta Gas Grills found its way into the hands of Onward Manufacturing and things are looking up. Yes, I am aware of the Bankruptcy filing in March of 2011, but the company is making grills again, including this $100USD unit sold at Home Depot. Backed by OMC there shouldn't be anything to worry about buying this grill.

The Fiesta 25,000 BTU grill is a very basic gas grill. Fortunately, unlike many gas grills in this price range, the body of this grill is made of cast aluminum. The single, dual control burner is low grade and thin stainless steel. The truth is, in this day, getting a gas grill in this price range doesn't mean quality or durability. While very basic, this grill is better built than many of the comparable products.

The first component of this grill that will fail will most likely be the burner. As a single unit, when it goes bad it has to be replaced. The cost for a new burner is around $25USD so the decision that you will be making in a few years is whether to replace the burner or the whole grill.
