Scott Undisclosed Verified Purchaser | ★★★★★ ★★★★★ Great built in grill kit Great value for the money. Impressive quality. First item was a 6 lb chicken on the rotisserie. Excellent result. 2nd use was hamburgers. Another great result.
Hint: do a 60 minute "burn-in" on high before your first grilling. | Was This Helpful? |
Jeanine Undisclosed Verified Purchaser | ★★★★★ ★★★★★ The Best grill! Definitely recommend it! Beautiful and works great!! | Was This Helpful? |
Olipop Los Angeles Ca Verified Purchaser ![]() | ★★★★★ ★★★★★ Great BBQ The controlled heat for rotisserie chick and the side sear burners are excellent. The BBQ is the best I have owned and living in So. Cal we use it on a weekly basis year around. An extra plus is that it is always an emergency cooking area during crisis from earthquakes when utilities are shut off | Was This Helpful? |
Jim Undisclosed Verified Purchaser | ★★★★★ ★★★★★ Yes Light up knobs, cooks evenly, built from quality material, all stainless steel cooking grates. Don't like its very hard to start when cold and the ignitor isn't continuous | Was This Helpful? |

- Made in North America
- Good warranty
Things We Love:
The Napoleon Prestige is a nice freestanding gas grill with innovative accessories and storage features. The Prestige series is available with an infrared rear burner and rotisserie. The P500 has an optional infrared “sizzle-zone” side burner. I love that when the side burner or ice bucket are not in use, the lid is flush - giving you full access to the side shelf space. You can also add a charcoal tray giving you different ways to cook. The Napoleon Prestige comes with blue backlit control knobs. The control knobs have SafetyGlow technology that changes the backlight color from blue to red when a burner is in use. I also really like Napoleon’s doubled lined “lift-ease” lid, which opens easily and helps hold in heat for optimal heat retention. The lid is hinged near the middle and, when open, adds hardly any depth to the back of the grill. This allows for easy placement in a variety of spaces.
Napoleon Prestige grills have stainless steel tube burners that are lit by a "Jetfire" electronic ignition. The P500 comes with stainless steel grates which have a patented wave design that creates unique sear marks to spread heat evenly, Napoleon has stainless steel sear plates. The plates also protect the burners and help reduce flare-ups.
The P500’s infrared “sizzle-zone” is a unique feature on this grill. Its grate is adjustable, allowing you to change the position of the grates. You can lower the grates to the burner for cooking with pots and pans as you would on a conventional side burner, or raise the grates to a higher position for searing meats like steak.
The Prestige 500 is also available in a built-in model, which would make a great centerpiece in your outdoor kitchen.
The warranty on the Prestige series is a standout in its class, having a lifetime warranty on the exterior housing, cooking grids, and porcelain enamel coated lid. Napoleon also boasts a 10 year + 5 warranty on their burners and flame tamers that provides replacement parts at a 50% of normal cost for 5 years after the 10 year warranty expires.
Thing To Consider:
While this grill is built tough, and backed by a strong warranty, Napoleon Prestige grills are not "all stainless steel", which is what many customers are shopping for nowadays. Along with the stainless steel components on the grill, you will also find cast aluminum and porcelain enameled steel components too, such as cart legs, back panels, etc.

Questions & Answers (3)
Back to TopQuestion: Hi, for the built in model ( prestige pro 500) is the drip pan removable? And if not, do you guys have a review on how to clean it? Thanks Was This Helpful? Answer: Great question Jose! The drip pan on this model is removable. We recommend that the drip pan is cleaned after each use, by using a putty knife or scraper. Never line the drop pan with foil, as this could prevent grease from flowing properly. You can find more information on cleaning this grill on page 9 of the manual we have on site under "Manufacturer’s Downloads" on this item's page!
While we do not have a review on how to clean this specific grill, this article provides a lot information you may find useful: www.bbqguys.com/bbq-learning-center/care-maintenance/how-to-clean-your-grill-like-a-pro Asked by JoseAnswered by Caroline This question was asked on a different product configuration. |
Question: There is no side or oblique view. I need to replace a builtin natural gas grill with opening 24" deep, 31' width and 8' height. How does this unit fit? Was This Helpful? Answer: Hi Joe, the cut out requirements for this grill are 20 5/8-Inches Depth X 30 3/4-Inches Width X 8 7/8-Inches Height. The cutout for your previous model is a bit too small to fit this grill, but we also recommend speaking with a licensed professional who has experience with outdoor kitchens for professional advice. Asked by joeAnswered by Hunter This question was asked on a different product configuration. |
Question: I purchased the natural gas model and need to switch to propane. Is there a conversion kit? Was This Helpful? |
Question: Can you tell me the width without rotisserie? Have similar Napoleon grill and hoping to purchase this one to replace. My current Napoleon is 29" width without rotisserie. Thank you! Was This Helpful? |
Question: What is the total overall width including the rotisserie? Was This Helpful? |
Question: What is the difference between this 500 and the pro 500 Was This Helpful? Answer: Hi Brandon, thanks for asking! The Prestige PRO 500 comes with limitless color choices for the LED knobs that turn red when a burner is in use and includes two hood lights in the hood to help you see in the night. The Prestige 500 does not come with the two hood lights, and the knob colors are blue or will turn red when a burner is active. Asked by BrandonAnswered by Hunter This question was asked on a different product configuration. |
Question: Where is the drip pan, is it secured to the grill and removable. Or will I need to build a platform in my outdoor kitchen for it. Was This Helpful? |
Question: Hi all - sorry if this is on the site and I missed it, but I was wondering if you can tell me what comes in the box with the built-in model? Some things I'm curious about include: Does the base still come with it? Does it come with an insulated jacket? Do I need one if I have a wooden frame or is this product shipped with the insulation built-in? Was This Helpful? Answer: Hi there! The base does not come with the built-in model as it would not be needed. The insulated jacket does not come with the grill but it would be necessary if you are building into a combustible structure such as a wooden frame. Here is the insulated jacket that fits this grill: www.bbqguys.com/napoleon/zero-clearance-insulated-liner-for-bilex485-bip500-bipro500-gas-grills-bi-3323-zcl Asked by JTAnswered by Tiffany This question was asked on a different product configuration. |
