Performance notes
Propane fuel with 10,000 BTU across 4 burners and 622 square inches of primary cooking surface. The BTU-to-area ratio suggests this grill is designed for moderate-heat cooking across a wide surface rather than intense high-heat searing. Metal construction at 76 pounds and 23.3 by 54.1 by 46.4 inches gives the grill a stable footprint. Silver and black color scheme is a standard outdoor look.

Frequently asked questions
What is the cooking area on the Kenmore PG-A40406S0L?
The primary cooking area is 622 square inches. That is enough space for large family cookouts or small gatherings. It puts this grill well above average for a propane grill in this price range.
Is the Kenmore PG-A40406S0L durable enough for regular use?
The grill uses metal construction rather than stainless steel, so durability over many seasons will depend on how well it is maintained and whether it is stored or covered during wet weather. A grill cover is a worthwhile investment for any outdoor grill kept outside year-round.
