Title: New Coleman grill
Post by: campnagle on Mar 25, 2009, 07:37 PM
Coleman just came out with the road trip portable tabletop grill to compete head to head with the ever popular Weber Q. It has a stainless burner and porcelain covered cast iron grill surface. It also sports a warmer rack and a built in thermostat in the lid. The advantage might be a smaller footprint to store as the Weber is a little bulky with it's roller duffle. Wont know the build quality until I can hold it in my hands but this is a new option for a good camp grill. Like all new Coleman products a custom fit storage tote wont be available for a few months but I think finding a Rubbermaid type of tote would be easier to find for it over the Weber Q.

The Road Trip products we've had and seen were junk and not recommendable.  We used the picnic version a couple of times and know why we saw one in the trash at a campground.  The porcealin is too thin, heat distribution is right where the burner is only, food sticks and cleaning is very difficult.  This is a neandrethal compared to a Weber talbe-top propane grill!  I found its only feature is the ability to be used as a one-burner stove.
