I really wanted a grill for my apartment but there are so many restrictions such as not being able to use a 20 lb. tank. This one is great because it uses the smaller camping sized tank but has the converter hose so when I eventually buy a house I can use a larger propane tank. I also love that it has the stand that is easily can be removed from so if I wanted to take the grill to the beach or camping it would easy. Definitely a great starter grill for me!
