Practically speaking, there is no low setting even though the knob says there is; for that matter there is not even a medium setting with this grill. For some basic cooking perspective, on a typical grill I usually cook steaks for 3 minutes a side turned 3 times, covered, for a total grill time of 12 minutes to get medium rare steaks 3/4 inches thick. With this grill? On the very lowest setting, covered, 3 minutes will blacken and nearly burn one side. Flip the steaks and another 3 minutes gives you well-done on the outside steaks that are raw in the middle. Thinner steaks become charred leather in 6 minutes. Leave the lid up while grilling and the outside burns and inside doesn't cook. Want to turn down the heat? You can't: this is what happens at the lowest setting. Complete. design. disaster.
I'm trying to figure out if limiting the gas even more through another valve might somehow salvage the purchase, but overall this solid and sweet-looking grill is unworthy of you... unless you like your food well-done or incinerated. I feel like I was just robbed of $160; as it currently exists this grill is virtually useless. Hope I can modify it somehow. Very disappointed.
I am completely baffled at how highly rated this grill is. It doesn't make any sense. I would suspect that there are some units that might be somehow defective but this isn't a defect of manufacture; this grill is very well-built. This is instead a defective design. Unless you like charred food of course.
For now I am back to using my crappy $20 portable gas grill, which easily outperforms this Coleman design disaster. DON'T BUY THIS.This grill outshines them all! BUT, for those people having trouble cleaning the grease pans, the instructions clearly say to add a little water to the slide out pan, prior to use, for EASY CLEANING. You can line the inside of the grill with foil whenever cooking hamburgers, etc. which have much more grease than other foods. I use mine for the backyard, for camping, for beach trips, you name it. I have purchased the griddle plates and one stove burner, in addition to the grill plates. I also like the option of having the tube (separate purchase) for a connection to the large propane tank, and the automatic attachment for small portable propane tanks. It can run hot, so watch and adjust your burners as you begin cooking. Remember to pull out the side shelves before turning it on. Love the versatility and portability!
