I just love this grill. The food grills perfectly since the charcoal tray moves up and down so that you can adjust the how close your food will be to the flames. I like that you can open the door without lifting the lid to check flame and adjust your charcoal.  The side trays are a bonus, making it easy to transfer food from the grill to the dish.  Charcoal can be stored underneath, along with cooking spray, etc, so everything is in one place, when you need it.  Much better than my old kettle style grill.
