Eight months for delivery but totally worth the wait. Very solidly constructed from the four locking wheels to the heavy gauge rivetted lid. Easy tank exchange, which isn't too often, even though we use our BBQ several times a week. Stainless grills are easy to clean. Heat distribution is even and consistent even in Canadian cold weather. This BBQ will not only last a lifetime, it will be loved for a lifetime!

My previous BBQ was a westbend that I had for over 30 years. This one seems pretty solid especially the heavy stainless steel grates. Time will tell how the burners igniters and fancy lights will hold up. The rotisserie is good, the motor strong and quiet. I also got the searing element which is great for steaks. The only fault for me were the casters. They would be fine on a patio slab or deck but I keep my bbq in a shed and even with a ramp the plastic base immediately began to bend and fail. I replaced the casters with larger ones and bolted the plastic base to the metal frame. An option for larger wheels and a stronger base would help

I bought a baron because it's engineered to perform built to last and backed with broil king confidence. The propane cast iron grill combo is a dream maker for diamond grill marks on tenderloins and chicken teets Oh right on eh

great bar b wouldn't think of having anything other then the Baron 490 Pro. Hubby is so excited with it that I get to sit back and relax while he does the cooking. It's like having your own private gourmet cook, it takes the guess work out of bar b quing it does everything for you. LOVE IT

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.

30-Day Returns
