875944 Baron S 490 Pro IR, Liquid Propane (LP), Stainless Steel, Black

Grill is Absolutely Great. After getting put together it’s everything advertised, and then some !

Great value for the money but they are still producing it with a known flaw with the igniter. Had to order a replacement and change it out - they mailed one quickly since this was apparently a very common request. The igniter still doesn’t always work until you jiggle it. They should really just fix it but the overall design, burner strength and value still was worth it.

I'm very impressed with this grill. The materials are top-notch, and the overall design is solid and well-crafted. I did choose to upgrade to a cast iron grill grate, which I personally prefer. Although the original package was missing a brace, I contacted the company, and they responded quickly—shipped the part without any hassle. The grill heats up fast and holds high temperatures with ease, while still offering good control. It also includes a rotisserie, and I've had no issues with the heat affecting the electric motor. I really like the backlit dials—they’re especially helpful for nighttime grilling. While the price might seem a bit high, with proper care, this grill should easily last 10 to 15 years or more.

We have been a fan of broil king for years. Purchased this one to replace our 4 burner baron. Heats up great and hold the heat with that double lined hood. Have used weber in the past and this is the king of gas grills

I agonized for years about a new BBQ, this BroilKing Baron ticks most of the boxes and was priced nicely. It is a beautifully engineered product! Even though the instructions are pictorial, it was easy to assemble. Some steps were confusing because the pictures show parts in the wrong scale, I looked for many items only to find they were much larger or smaller than depicted. On to performance... 1) Takes longer to heat than expected, maybe as much as 10 minutes 2) Stainless grill is tough to clean, food sticks even with pre-treatment with a good olive oil. 3) Slower cooking, many items take 20% longer than with my old "Aussie" grill. 4) Cover is not double insulated! That may account for the slower cooking times. Here's the good: 1) Very pretty! 2) Flav-R-Wave does help BBQ smoky flavor. AND flare-up is well controlled. 3) Cover does not extend very far behind the grill when open. I have the grill about three inches from a wall and the cover doesn't hit the wall when open. 4) Ignitors work perfectly! Light one burner with ignitor and the others will light themselves. I chose this grill partly based on size, my area is narrow. This grill fits! As a note, the side shelves do fold down when not in use. The shelf with the burner folds but the burner's gas tube hits the stand and knocks the burner out and opens the lid. I'm trying to find a way to bend the burner tube up to prevent interference. Alternatively, I may add screws to hold the burner in place. I cannot whole-heartedly recommend this BBQ, food sticks on the stainless grill, slow to cook, cannot get a good sear. Cover is not insulated double layer. I would send it back but I no longer have the packing materials. In a year or so, I may replace it. My old grill lasted 23 years, outside in SoCal.

received the package and noticed that one of the pieces was damaged beyond use. as i was assembling the rest, there was not a straight piece of metal in the entire box. every piece was scratched, bent, or dented. would not buy this at all.

This is my 3rd Broil King BBQ over the last 12 years. With my first 2 grills I was quite happy and decided to stick with the brand when going up to a larger size at my new home. Sadly, due to poor performance I've gone back to using lump charcoal in a kettle and don't use the Broil King that much. The packaging and delivery were good. The grill looks great - quite impressive and feels very well made. Assembly wasn't that bad, though you do need to pay attention and apply common sense at a few spots. Now the negatives... The side infrared burner barely gets above 600degrees and no amount of trouble shooting has got this rectified. The main burners take about 15min to get up to 450-500. I consider this too long for a gas based BBQ. The BBQ has a hard time maintaining temp unless the cover is closed ... Dropping to 300 - 350. Temp coverage is not that good - hot spots and colder spots can make using the entire grilling surface a challenge. If looking for a new BBQ, skip this one.

This is our 3rd Broil King in 25 years. We purchased the assembly & installation from Amazon. They put it together at our house and installed it. Overall they did a great job!

Beaucoup d’innovations apportées sur ce modèle. Et quelques défauts aussi. C’est notre deuxième BBQ Broil King Baron 320.(Le premier a duré 7 ans avec les brûleurs d’origine.) AMÉLIORATIONS: Toutes les grilles en Stainless Stell de gros calibre; Ajout d’une plate-forme en bas, très esthétique mais surtout qui rend le BBQ plus stable et à niveau, avec ses 4 grosses roues verrouillages; Le mécanisme pour l’ouverture de la porte est nettement amélioré, c’était un problème sur l’ancien modèle, c’est maintenant parfait! Et les mécanismes pour les tablettes pliantes sont eux-aussi vraiment mieux qu’avant! Maintenant Les 2 DÉFAUTS: Pour la cuisson, le côté droit cuit beaucoup moins bien que le centre et à gauche, possiblement à cause d’un trou d’aération dans la cuve à droite?!…Et, positif, Le panier pour le gras de cuisson est maintenant plus grand et beaucoup plus facile d’accès...Mais le problème: l’arrière du BBQ est maintenant ajouré partiellement, ouvert exactement vis-à-vis le panier qui se remplit d’eau constamment. (Avec une housse de BBQ, vous n’aurez pas ce problème) Donc jusqu’à maintenant, EXCELLENT BBQ… et le temps nous diras s’il sera aussi durable au niveau peinture et pièces…

Nice BBQ, a step up from my 15 year old Crown. Missed a star due to poorly thought out internal cabinet design and not including a cast iron grate option. They have the regulator hose in the way of the tank valve, plus all the igniter and light wires dangle in front of it. Had they reversed the lower panel (tank and brace swap sides) it would be so much better. Also, I prefer cast iron grates which are available, but at added cost and are not cheap plus now I have a set of stainless grates for no reason… I also thought I’d have more room for rotisserie diameter but the lid is lower than I thought so it looks like it’s bigger but not by much, a taller lid would have helped. Still, it’s better than nice…but just a whisker below awesome.

Very well made. We love that it is stainless steel. You need to be handy to put this together. Took a couple of hours to assemble. Really enjoy using the rotisserie

This is a mid level broil king. Purchased this same model in 2016 and it is still going strong (set of grill replacements only), just purchased a new one with the old going to the other camp. Very impressed that the build materials and quality is now even better than 9 years ago. Made in Canada

Easy to assemble, quality product.
