Fire Mountain Everest Pro 5 Burner Gas BBQ with Side Burner, Glass Lid Viewing Window, Cast Iron Grills, LED Control Dials & Built-In Thermometer, Large Family Cooking Area

**** Update September 2022 **** 7 years after purchase and its still going strong! We've used the BBQ a lot over the years and it still looks great. We've looked after it and its sat under a BBQ cover in spring and summer when not in use and goes back into the shed between September and March. If I'm picky theres a little bit of rust around the weld joints but only its minor and you have to really look for it. The side trays have wooden black inserts and the sun has faded the wood slightly and the transfers indicating the burner heat settings has faded. Other than these minor things, its as good as it was 7 years ago! I was a little dubious about the enamel coated grill plates but careful care cleaning after use has meant they're as good as they were when I bought it. Im absolutely delighted with the BBQ. **** Original review *** I was a bit dubious about buying a BBQ from the internet, especially when there are a lot of negative reviews about other makes on Amazon. The reviews on here settled my mind so I bought the 4 burner model. Delivery was quicker than I expected arriving 2 days after the order placement. It came as one big box weighing 40kgs so make sure you ask the delivery men to put it somewhere out of the way. Assembly is relatively simple, taking under an hour with clear instructions. You will need a 10mm spanner and a cross head screwdriver to assemble and a bit of floor space. The free gas regulator was a bonus, however attaching the gas pipe to the BBQ require a bit of strength and elbow grease. This will be the same for any BBQ you buy but keep in mind that it will take 15mins to get on. Build Quality is pretty good. The lid is a little flimsy when opening but this is absolutely fine and I wouldn't expect anything different on a BBQ in this price range. The grills are enamel coated and can't comment about its durability yet but expect this to wear over time. These can easily and cheaply be replaced with cast iron when the time comes. The burners light first time with the ignition system so no need for matches and the knobs are nice and big. Operating the BBQ is a dream and the heat can controlled easily creating hot ends on the grill. The warming tray is a nice bonus to store cooked burgers and sausages whilst others cook. I cooked for 12 adults with any problems on the BBQ. Storage - the shelves don't fold down easily without taking bolts out so if you're short of space then take this into consideration.

I am really pleased with this Barbecue. Some context, this is the first time i have ventured into the world of Gas Barbecues and i looked at everything from really expensive to cheap as chips. I had settled on the size i wanted, 4 burner, and was going to by one that was double this price. However when i found this one, the specs looked identical so i took the chance. If i had one gripe it would be that it was a little fiddly to put together, but it took me no more than an hour to do it. On first use two things were obvious, having half the cooking surface as enamelled griddle plate is a massive bonus and allows you to easily cook things that have a tendency to fall apart on grill bars, and the burners are very effective, meaning the whole lot heats up really quickly. Whilst this is not as sturdy as a Weber, for example, it is a lot lighter, and this did make it easy to manoeuvre to its working position. All in after several uses I have no complaints, the enamel on the grill and griddle plate make this easy to clean, the drip tray under the cooking areas does catch everything, and little things like covers for the burners under the grill are nice touches that make keeping it clean relatively easy. I would definitely recommend this Barbecue, especially if you want a larger Barbecue at a very good price. As other reviewers have said get a cover with it.

Fairly challenging assembly, allow a full afternoon. Suggest a socket wrench alternative to the little spanner supplied. You need plenty of space to check the package contents and to construct. Most of the construction diagrams are ok but some elements are very difficult to interpret, especially the gas connection to the hob. That diagram is inadequate. Finished article looks good although not tried yet.

Sturdy BBQ instructions easy to follow took just over 2 hours to assemble. looking forward to using it for the first time this weekend.

Now, where to start. I would say I have an impossible to resist compulsion to research items before I purchase. I spent hours on amazon and other sites, reading every spec and review. Comparing every aspect. In the end it came down to this, and the Cosmo 6 burner (also available from amazon). I chose this because of the enamelled grills and the fact half is a griddle plate. I think, without doubt I made the right choice. I see a lot of complaints about people struggling to put it together etc, but I managed to do it in sub 2 hours with a 4 week old Baby and a hyperactive 6 year old to manage as the wife was out and I just could not resist the shining stainless steel. In truth, I think somewhere between an hour and two would be fair. Maybe want to use some of your own tools. Pipe grips, ratchet spanner etc were extremely useful for me. However, it can definitely be put together with the tools it comes with, although it just will require more effort and patience. I guess there is a lot of parts, which may seem daunting to someone whom is not technically astute. Connecting the gas hose up, little tip. Put the hose in some boiling water for a few minutes, it’ll become more plyable and you’ll slide it on the nozzles much easier. Once it’s together. It is truly stunning to look at. Really you would not expect to get something of this calibre for the money. Now, onto actual performance as a BBQ. I have held off writing this review, as I wanted to get a few good goes out of it. Cooking a variety of food. So, I’ve had this since the beginning of April. I am extremely impressed. Most of the time I will only use two burners. I think this bbq could manage a huge cook out no problem. The speed in which it heats up is incredible. 250c+ achieved in a matter of minutes. Confirmed this with another thermometer as wasn’t sure on the one provided. However, it is surprisingly accurate. I see some people complaining of fat dripping etc. Being hard to clean. I honestly don’t see how. It’s an absolute dream. I keep a degreaser spray under with a scotch pad, and some kitchen roll. The main body etc cleans up in seconds. The grills, rack and drip tray really don’t require much work at all to clean. I ordered the grill brush pro https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B0030BIXAU?psc=1&ref=yo_pop_mb_pd_title Perfect addition. Take the grills to the sink. Quick going over with that. Then a wash and wipe with some fairy and they’re like brand new again. They will fit in a dish washer, but they’re extremely heavy, and to be honest because of the material they are very easy to clean. Wouldn’t see why you would bother. All in all, I really have to say I am blown away with this for the price. It easily competes with BBQs 3 or 4 times it’s price. It has everything you really need. Everyone whom has seen it, comments. You can’t go wrong. It’s all good quality so should last for many years. So please, save yourself the hours and days that I invested reading and researching, and just buy this. Also... https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B00WI5TBRI?psc=1&ref=yo_pop_mb_pd_title This cover. Fits perfect.

I was a bit apprehensive buying a bar b q online. After reading lots of reviews on this model I am pleasantly surprised. The size is a lot smaller than I had before but is really compact but still a good size. No issues with the assembly, I followed the instructions it took a couple of hours, as there are lots of parts. Love the cooking plate. So overall so far so good. The quality appears good but time will tell. Have used a couple of times now with no issues. The bar b q also cooks well.

Great BBQ for the price. Well made and sturdy. A bit of a faff putting it together and had a couple of small dents (but not where it shows) when it arrived. Having said all that I would still highly recommend…we looked at loads and this was the best for the money by far.

I've had one of these since 2018 so it's really had some good use. Being four burners it handles food for 2 or 20 easily and I like the mix of grill and hot plate. I've had some great barbeques and think it was good value for it's size. Pain in the proverbial to put together, but one is together it's ok. The problems come with the clean up. The grill and hot plate can be removed and scrubbed clean (and they still look good this many years on) so no complaints there. Below those, it's messy - you can see that in the photo. Lots of uncleanable nooks and crannies that collect fat and burnt food. The drip tray also doesn't catch everything - I line it with foil for easy disposal but I'm always finding fat puddles on the patio. Good BBQ let down by the detailing
