Question:
Should I buy a Kenmore Model
16641?
Reader:
Hello,
I find your web site very informative but I am looking for a
review of the Kenmore 4 burner grill with the model number
16641 and can’t find one. Could you do a quick review of
the Kenmore model 16641 as well as tell me where I could
purchase one? Also where is a good place to buy the Broil
King, Blue Ember, and Napoleon grills you have listed?
What would be a good model for less than 500 dollars?
Thank you.

Hey Reader,
Thanks for your question!
If you're looking for a outdoor grill for under 500 dollars
check out my Best Gas Grills Under 500
Dollars page with links on where to
purchase.
The Kenmore 4 burner grill for $299 is not a bad price for
this model, but you will find that it is made of thin,
lower quality materials. After a few months you will
most likely find that the Kenmore 16641’s overall fit and
finish as well as the durability of this grill is less
than you would have expected. Over time, and
especially if this grill is subject to moisture, some of
the inexpensive interior parts will usually rust through
within 3 to 5 years. This is common for grills in
this price range. On the plus side, for the price it
offers a lot of BTU output, size, and features. As
for cooking performance, users report that the grill cooks
evenly and has plenty of power. Overall, if take care
of the Kenmore model 16641 it should serve you well for 3
to 5 years before needing to have replacement parts
installed or needing to be replaced.
As for similar alternatives
to the Kenmore 4 burner grill, I highly recommend the Broil
King Crown 20. It's about the same size and design as
the Kenmore. The Broil King grills have a great
reputation for cooking performance, customer service, and
quality. Their burner system cooks very evenly, and
the exterior is made of aluminum, with will never rust or
weather. These grills are known to last a good 10
years. Plus Amazon has a great price on them, so you
can’t wrong.
Purchase Broil King here: (No
side burner)

Crown 20
Purchase the Broil King here: (With side
burner)
Broil King Crown

The Weber Q-300 would be my second
choice.

Thanks.
