Cuisinart Petit Gourmet Tabletop Gas Grill - Black - CGG-180T

Great "small" grill, perfect for camping, tailgating, or any other outdoor activity. Small, but perfect size!!! We love it!!! My family camps all summer!

This is a great portable grill, perfect for tailgating or camping. We tailgate regularly and had actually switched to bringing cold sandwiches because our large grill was too much work -- this is perfect! My favorite detail is that you can lock the lid shut, so it's easy to grab it by the handle and carry it. It's very sturdy, so I wouldn't worry about it tipping over even on a windy day. It heats up quickly, and does a great job cooking about 6 large burgers at a time... which is perfect for a small group gathering. Love that it comes in different colors -- the red one is beautiful. Best of all, it's super easy to clean -- which is probably the most important thing besides how well it cooks. So happy with this grill!

I really like this grill. It is very easy to assemble and use, as well to clean when you are done. The surfaces are non stick, and it creates less smoke than I was expecting (although it probably depends on what you are cooking). I've been using it on my apartment balcony but also plan on taking it camping. In my opinion it cooks food similar to how a full outdoor gas grill would, with easier clean up.

I received this product about a week ago, and it definitely met and exceeded my expectations. In the past, my husband has always grilled for us, but now I can as well. The assembly was very easy. It only took a few minutes to remove the grill from the box and assemble. Make sure to purchase the correct propane cylinder. My husband had to take the first one he purchased back as it was too large. The small LP cylinders only cost about $4.00; however, I'm not sure how many uses we'll get out of it. The leak test only took moments and was successful. We had to turn the grill on and off 3 times before the flame ignited. I heard the click the first two times w/no flame; but maybe we didn't turn the knob fast enough (or too fast) or leave the gas on long enough. However, the 3rd time was the charm! Our first meal was chicken breast that my husband cut in half for faster cooking. It took about 8 minutes to produce a very tender, juicy meal!

Upon opening our grill I was happy to see there was no real assemble required. It looks sharp and I'm glad it has a drip tray. At first I was worried the "legs" wouldn't be secure enough, but they are! I haven't had any issue with them being wobbly while grilling. You can easily fit 3 good sized burgers on the grill. The only thing I would change is how the drip tray sometimes moves out of place if I pick up and move the grill to store it. However, after the first couple times I just changed the way I tilt the grill when I put it away.

This is a very nice grill. Here are some of the things we found: It is a good size and very easy to move around. The set up is quick and relatively simple. We did find there to be a bit of play in the legs when assembled. Not a big deal but does allow for some moving around. We grilled burgers on this grill first and thought it did a very good job. We easily did 4 at a time and thought the cooking was very even. Later we did chicken breasts and felt that it took a bit longer than our bigger grill at home would have required, but not a problem. Clean up was easy. I love how easily it folds up for storage. This is a solid item and seems very well built.

One of my biggest complaints about portable grills is that they don't work well in the wind. This one is awesome. It heats up and is ready to grill in under a minute. It heats evenly, and with the lid closed I don't have to worry about the wind impacting my grilling. Cleaning is easy, the metal grill comes clean with very little scrubbing and soap and water. Grilling surface is large enough to grill for a small group of six adults.

Our family does a lot of camping and has owned several portable BBQ grills over the years, but the Cuisinart Petite Gourmet Tabletop Gas Grill is a big step up in quality from the cheaply built units we have owned previously. Although it looks like it is made from cast aluminum, the unit is made out of sturdy stamped metal. The legs and lid hinges, as well as the propane canister mount, are very stable. Unlike other portable grills we have owned, this grill has replaceable and upgraded parts that can be ordered from Cuisinart. On the down side, the flame setting is a bit tricky and the grilling rack is closer to the burner than we are used to, so overcooking of food is a strong possibility at first. However, the simplicity of the unit allows the grill to collapse easily for transport and storage. The locking lid and strong handle add to its convenience.

I bought this a few weeks ago to use for Girl Scout camp outs. I have never used a grill before and it came when my husband was out of town. I was too excited to wait and have him help me figure it out. I'm so happy I didn't wait! This cute little thing was awesome and SO easy to use. I think it's going to be perfect for little outings!

This is a very nice grill. Perfect size for tailgating and grilling on the go. Stainless steel makes it easy to clean and folding legs make it easy to pack up and store. A few downfalls would be that the lid latch needs a spring so it can latch automatically. The grease catcher doesn't lock in place and could easily fall out and get lost if you don't notice. Also, someplace to put spare cans of propane or the one being used while it's off for traveling would be nice. This grill will get plenty of use.
