Take Your Grilling On-the-Go: Coleman Sportster Portable Propane Gas Grill

Amazon Customer: Great portable BBQ. It gets hot real fast and holds temperature very well!
I use it for camping or tailgating. It folds/unfolds very easily. My only gripe is that you have to be careful wheeling it around when it's folded up; if you put it on too much of an angle the BBQ drops down. A bunjee cord should solve this problem.

Dustin: It’s a good barbecue, powerful to bring everywhere. I like that it’s easy to roll around but one design flaw is that you have to roll it at a certain angle or it will open and unfold even when it’s locked, other than that, no complaints

KEVIN CROWELL: Love the BBQ, it would have been 5* except for the fact 1 week later I was going to buy another one for my MIL ... and the price was jacked up $30!

Tricks Tips Fix: It does everything as advertised. The grill was easy to assemble in less than 15 minutes and using it is really simple since it only has one knob to adjust the power. I like the small form factor when not in use, I can store it in the shed without taking much space.

Amazon Customer: This grill has been great! Packaged well, and received with no problem. Opened the box to find that the grill portion was already assembled. The legs and wheels needed assembly and then attaching the grill to the legs needed to be done. Assembly took about 30 minutes, but, only because I knew from other reviews that the instructions were hard to follow, (which they are). The reason is that the instructions don't let on about a couple of important assembly points... written by someone who already knew how to put it together. Here's some hints: Notice the picture of the grill here. The ones in the instructions won't help you. Notice that the front face of the grill connects to the legs by wrapping a "brace" around the cross bar of the leg. This "brace" has a hole in it. That hole is for the locking mechanism that you'll find on one of the legs, so you can wheel the grill around without it falling apart. Now you know which side that leg has to go, and you can see the angles. The last key is that the foot of the grill will face the front, and the wheels will wind up in the back. If you get it wrong, then the grill will not sit level after assembly, but it will appear that you've...

dreamweaverdreamweaver: This is my first grill and I purchased it at Target. The instructions weren't that great, but it wasn't that hard to figure out, especially when using the picture as a reference. Just make sure that the thing that slides into the slot on the grill is in the right place. We did make the mistake of putting that part together wrong the first time and not being able to move the grill properly. On the plus side, it was much easier to put it together again the second time around. Since it is my first grill, and I had no prior experience with propane grills I was seriously nervous about using it the first time. My main issue with the instructions were in regards to use and cleaning (yes, I am probably an idiot). If anything, most of the stuff in the instructions made me more nervous. After using it a few times I was pretty comfortable with it, though. If you already know how to use these things then this wouldn't be an issue for you.

Overall, (after figuring it out and getting used to it) the grill works great. It's easy to use and easy to clean. It looks like a baby compared to the really big grills my neighbors have, but you can't beat being able to take it with you and have a...

LwosLwos: Looking forward to using this little unit over the winter. I wanted something small to roll out to grill a steak or two and not have to fire up our huge 4 burner behemoth. This looks like just the ticket and plus it uses those little disposable propane cylinders.
I put it together in about 20 minutes....by myself and I'm a 65 yr old gal. So if I can do it anyone can.
I'd keep the box handy for reference because it was easier to assemble it looking at the box than reading the manual.........especially which way to attach the wheels. The wheels have 2 completely different sides and the illustration in the manual doesn't make it clear which side faces inward and which outward. You need a wrench or pliers for the wheels, but the rest is hand tightening. Spacers were slipped over 2 of the bolts and mine came with the latch already assembled onto one of the legs.
Don't make the mistake that I did and order the COLEMAN "RoadTrip" Grill Carry Case on Wheels. It doesn't fit this grill. Amazon has this grill shown under another name..... specifically The Coleman RoadTrip Sport Propane. They are IDENTICAL. But the RoadTrip Grill Carry Case is too small for this...
