Napoleon‘s compact and agile Charcoal Kettle Grill, the NK18K―LEG, is an 18―inch kettle that is ideal for any charcoal enthusiast. Grill and slow roast with ease, or smoke by including your favorite wood chips and chunks. When charcoal grilling, being able to control heat through airflow is essential. The adjustable air vents make it easy to manage airflow for precise temperature control, including top venting that is protected from the elements. The Vortex heat management system improves convection within the grill for better searing and smoking as well as improved fuel efficiency. Stainless steel grids heat quickly and need little maintenance, they are hinged to allow easy addition of extra charcoal, refilling water pans, and addition of wood for smoking. The integrated temperature gauge helps you maintain the perfect temperature while you grill at a comfortable height, thanks to improved leg joints that provide rock―solid stability and an elevated grilling surface for your barbecue needs.

Assembly is a long process

The assembly of this grill took a little longer than I had hoped for. I didn't have it fully assembled for about 30 minutes and my boyfriend ended up having to help me.

When will my item arrive?

Once shipped, items usually arrive within 3-5 business days. While UPS and FedEx are our carriers for smaller items, be aware that larger items and orders are shipped via freight. The freight process is a bit more complicated than what we've all come to expect for small parcels, so it's important that you're prepared and understand what's required of you well before delivery day.

  • Most freight products ship on a pallet
  • Some carriers will call to schedule a delivery window, while others will deliver the shipment to a reasonably accessible location closest to your residence (their goal is to deliver as near a garage door as they can).
  • We'll specify which process you can expect in your shipping confirmation email.

For carriers that schedule delivery appointments:

Carriers that schedule delivery appointments require you to be home for delivery and provide your signature. The delivery is made with a semi-truck with lift gate services, and the shipment is dropped off at the curb. If you authorize the shipping company to leave the delivery without a signature, BBQGuys can't be held responsible for damages that occur during delivery. As complicated as this process may seem, we've only scratched the surface here — please review our detailed guide to freight delivery so there are no surprises when a freight shipment heads your way.

For carriers that deliver without an appointment:

Carriers that deliver without an appointment don't require you to be home or set up a delivery window, and you aren't required to sign for the pallet(s). Instead of scheduling an appointment, arranging your schedule to be home for the delivery, and signing to confirm receipt, you can sit back and let your items come to you. If you're home at the time of the drop-off, you can request the driver place your delivery in the garage; if you're out of the house, the driver will leave it near the garage or doorstep.

This item leaves our warehouse within 24 Hours

$49 Flat-Rate Shipping

30-Day Returns

Return all new, unused, and unassembled items in their original packaging, and we'll give you a full refund minus the cost of the original AND return shipping.

No Restocking Fee

Most companies charge a restocking fee. We just don't do business that way.
