Fits in storage bay beautifully

Replaced a Coleman 2 burner bbq with a folding stand for the Napoleon TravelQ primarily for the compact size. I operate it with an 11 pound tank and adapter hose. I love it! Sometimes the flame isn't very strong but I shut off the fuel at the tank and let it burn out, then close the 2 valves and open the tank valve very slowly. This often fixes the low flame issue.

Thank you for reaching out. We are sorry you have experienced some concerns with your grill. But glad to hear you have been able to resolve the issue of low flow, as this does happen occasionally when the regulator gets tripped. Happy Grilling!

Paint not good, started falling - not covered by warranty

I bought this grill just over a year ago and the paint has started to fall down, inside and outside. I contacted Napoleon and they told me that the warranty doesn't cover any paint, regardless of where it is falling.

Best portable grill IMHO

Bought my grill 4-5 years ago and grilled with my brother using it this weekend. It was the first time he saw it and he was amazed at its ease of use, efficiency, and portability. He enjoys camping and thought this would be a great addition to his trailer when he doesn't want to cook inside. I used it at football games where I've cooked breakfast burritos, sausage links, and veggies. This weekend was hamburgers, hot dogs, and country style ribs. If you want a well built, well thought out, portable grill - THIS IS IT!!

the juror is still out

i like it but i dont like it...i dont like that it does not have some sort of burner covers..i dont like the grease going right onto the burner..i may have to rig something up...

Response from BBQGuys

We are sorry to hear that your grill TQ285-BL-1 did not meet your expectations. I also own this grill, and it has been working well for the past four years. It's a sturdy and durable grill that we frequently use for camping. We cook on it three times a day, which can result in grease buildup. However, if you maintain it properly by regularly cleaning the drip pan and brushing the burners with a wire brush, it will continue to operate for years. Thank you!"

So compact and efficient

I have had this for years now and it's the best portable bbq we have ever owned. It's easy and compact enough to carry around. Heats up pretty quick and maintains the heat properly without going too high or too low during the process. The rounded shape makes it easy to bbq a huge amount of stuff at the same time. Absolutely the best for outdoor parties.

Perfect Portable Grill

We've had this portable grill for about 3 years now and absolutely love it! We use it every time we go camping or even just in our backyard patio whenever we BBQ, it's a great little grill to have, easy to use and clean and cooks the food perfectly!

Questions & Answers

Question:
How do adjust the air fuel mixture for 8-10,000 altitude. Also can this be converted to a propane tank or do you have to use canisters? Thank you. Our model # is 463773717 I believeWas This Helpful?
Answers:

Hey! The air mixture you are referring to is the air shutter adjustment, i will attach for you a link where chef Tony shows how to adjust it. It says in the manual by the troubleshooting section that you can hook it up to a 20lb tank but from reading the manual, i would carefully read the conditions for the cylinder and make sure that falls in line with the steps for a propane tank. Hope this information helps! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-z78D0K88fA https://cdn.shocho.co/sc-specsheets/N415-0535.pdf?_ga=2.213294868.1818376337.1581352656-4679300.1580743159&_gac=1.50290132.1580759482.Cj0KCQiApt_xBRDxARIsAAMUMu_u5bsaQIJlfR7-vbvwCdxpMUP3r1RQ1NtLyqey5y3j_738CUbHyMQaAslNEALw_wcB

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

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.
