Unpacking the Grill
The grill comes assembled and strapped to a wooden pallet. All you have to do is
pop in the casters and wheel it away. Even so, we recommend that you have some help getting it off
the pallet. It's not THAT heavy, but it is awkward and we can't really make it any lighter without
compromising quality.
We do all of the complicated assembly work and aligment at the factory, so
your parts go together quickly. Drop in the four grates, the ash pan, and fire it up! You'll be
grilling in less than an hour.
The pallet is new wood and can be used for garden stakes, furniture or a nice
little recreational fire.

"The new grill is GREAT! The materials and construction are top quality and it does everything as
advertised.
The coals are
ready in 12 minutes
and I had it hold a steady 375° for 4 hours when I did some ribs
Monday. I did some shish kebobs Sunday and they came out great as
well.
I bought the shish kebob rack and the slow cooker rack and I got the cover for
it too.
All of the accessories are made of heavy gauge material, even the vinyl
cover!
The grill came fully assembled on a pallet to a local trucking company. I picked
it up with my truck, they loaded it on with a fork lift.
They delivered it in 2 days from German. It shipped on Wednesday and it was
ready for pickup on Friday."

Shipping & Delivery
Options
Shipping rates are high ... but not because of us. The
shipping charges on your order are calculated instantaneously by our shippers. We simply pass
them through.
Standard Shipping (This
price is calculated at checkout): The freight charges are calculated to the
nearest freight depot (usually in your zip code). We ship it "hold and notify" to somewhere near
you. When it arrives in your area, the freight company will call you to come get it. You need a
full size van or pickup truck, but the freight company will load it for you. It will not fit into a
SUV and you will need help to get it down to the ground once you get it home. It weighs around 250
pounds. We recommend at least three people to unload. You don't want to drop it, and please don't
hurt yourself.
You can also have the grill delivered to your place of business or any other location as long
as you have a loading dock or a forklift available. There is no extra charge for delivery to a
location with a dock or fork lift. You can NOT unload this grill from a large freight truck
manually. The driver will NOT help you try. Without a lift gate, it's too heavy, and the trucking
company will not allow it for safety reasons.
Residential Delivery Option ($100 extra
charge):
If you can't borrow a truck and a couple of big guys or ship to a business location, choose
the Residential Delivery option and we'll get it delivered right to your doorstep. We have to
charge more if you want the grill shipped to your house because the freight forwarder has to
transfer the grill to a smaller truck with hydraulic lift gate. They always charge us more than
$100 dollars for this, but we will absorb any charges above the $100.00 residential delivery fee.
If in doubt, pay the hundred bucks and don't hurt yourself or damage the grill.
