The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less.

Overview
The Feasto GS201 is a freestanding two-burner propane grill that weighs 33 lb and measures 21 x 43.3 x 43.3 inches. At 416 square inches it has more cooking room than many compact grills while remaining light enough to move without help. The black finish keeps it looking clean on a standard patio.
Two burners give you the minimum viable zone control: you can run high heat on one side and low or off on the other for basic two-zone cooking. It works well for burgers, hot dogs, sausages, boneless chicken, and fish. For larger roasts or whole chickens that need longer indirect time, a grill with more covered surface or side burners is better suited.
At $148.79 the GS201 sits in a well-populated budget gas grill category. What stands out is the 33 lb weight paired with 416 sq in, which is a lighter-for-size ratio than many competitors. The 4.0 rating from 136 reviews is a solid indicator that most buyers find it functional and worth the price, though it reflects some variation in build quality expectations at this budget level.

Performance notes
Two propane burners across 416 square inches of cooking surface. BTU output is not published, which makes direct heat comparisons difficult. At 33 lb the thin construction is expected, meaning heat retention when the lid opens will be lower than heavier cast iron or thick-walled competitors. For quick direct-heat grilling this is not a major issue. The two-burner setup supports a basic hot-and-cooler zone arrangement.
What buyers say
One hundred thirty-six reviews at 4.0 stars is a meaningful dataset for a budget grill. The rating suggests most buyers are satisfied with the cooking performance and value, while a portion encounter assembly or durability issues that pull the average below 4.5. For a sub-$150 two-burner grill the 4.0 is an honest and representative score.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Feasto GS201 suitable for apartment balcony use?
At 33 lb and a compact base footprint it fits many balcony spaces physically. Whether a gas grill is permitted on your balcony depends on your building rules and local fire codes. Many apartment buildings prohibit open-flame gas grills on balconies. Check your lease and local regulations before purchasing any gas grill for balcony use.
How many people can this grill feed in one cook?
At 416 sq in you can fit roughly 16 standard burger patties or four to six boneless chicken breasts at a time. For a family of four to five that is enough for a single-pass cook. Larger gatherings will need multiple rounds, but for everyday family meals the surface area is practical.
What maintenance does a budget propane grill like this need?
After each use, burn off food residue at high heat for a few minutes, then brush the grates clean while warm. Wipe down exterior surfaces periodically and check the burner ports for blockages, especially at the start of the season. A fitted cover protects the finish when the grill is not in use. These basic steps go a long way toward extending the life of any entry-level gas grill.
