1,500 owner reviews, more than most models here
The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other grills, grill parts and burners, smokers and smoking gear, grill tools, outdoor griddles, outdoor kitchen appliances and grill covers we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
At roughly 12 by 24 by 15 inches and just 10.1 pounds, the Charbroil 465620011 is built to be carried. The 11,000 BTU single burner is a solid output for this form factor, delivering enough heat to cook burgers, brats, and chicken on the 190 square inch alloy steel grate without long wait times. The compact size keeps it practical for camping bags, car trunks, or a balcony corner.
Alloy steel construction at $68.23 is appropriate for the price. It is not going to last decades in harsh outdoor conditions the way stainless steel might, but for occasional to moderate portable use it covers the job. Regular cleaning and dry storage extend the life of any steel grill at this price.
With 1,500 ratings averaging 4.0 stars, this grill has a broad and credible buyer base that sets realistic expectations. Four stars across this many buyers tells you it consistently does what people want a small portable grill to do.

Frequently asked questions
What propane canister does the Charbroil 465620011 use?
This compact grill is designed to connect to standard 1-lb disposable propane canisters. You can use an adapter hose to hook it up to a larger 20-lb tank, but the adapter is sold separately. Check that any adapter you buy is rated for this fitting before use.
Is this grill suitable for regular weekly backyard use?
It can handle regular use, but alloy steel construction at this price point is optimized for portability and budget, not long-term heavy use. For a primary backyard grill used several times a week, a larger stainless steel model would hold up better over several years.
