Product reviews of Char-Griller 9040 Wood Pellet Grill

Jeff : Great grill if you want to set it and forget it!

The local grocery store had these for sale over the summer. They had one left tonight marked way down. I asked if it was their lowest price, he said shoot me an offer, it's the end of the season! I said $250, I will take it home now, expecting a big no! He said sold!!! This is absolutely the best grill I have ever owned!! I am a diehard Weber fan but this is great! Just set the dial, check it like an oven! 375 degrees, about an 1 1/2 hr. The best whole chicken I have had without babysitting a fire! The only word I have is AMAZING!!!

Amazon Customer : Very poor support behind product

Out of the box never worked well, put to the side till I had time to look into.... figured it out, controller not working properly, and the motor and fan were mis wired from factory. Absolutely no support of product even after they shipped product miswired, controller does not function properly assume from being miswired and grill is worthless for cooking the way it is, not even willing to discount parts due to their mistake. That’s another $80 to try to get it working...

Silver : Interesting customer service

Great grill, BUT parts takes forever, out of the last 12 months only could use eleven weeks waiting on replacement parts. customer service interesting. first replacement parts needed when opening box missing leg only took it eight months to arrive. so out $$$$ and waiting, waiting again waranty not worth paper printed on.

Felicia Colbert : Food is good but keep having to replace the fire rod

I bought this Grill almost 3 years ago after comparing with other brands. I ultimately got this grill because I wanted to be able to smoke and grill and it was cheaper than its main competitors.Since we have purchased it, we have had the fire rod go out multiple times. I just ordered my 4th one and over the summer we had to order a new fuse because it started tripping the outlet.

Overall had I gone with competitor I would have spent about the same over time with the parts I have had to replace. As much as I love this grill when it is working, next time I will go with the other main brand knowing that over time it will be saving me money.

I have also reached out to customer service with zero help.

Chad Sterner : Love this Grill!

Bought this grill/smoker early summer 2013. My bother-in-law was grilling some amazing food on his traeger grill and I was looking into buying one when I came across this Char-Griller Pellet Grill at Lowe's for a significantly less price than a traeger. It was bigger, sturdier, and cooked just the same. My summer grilling and smoking was the best I ever had. Still works great! I highly recommend this grill. Buy it! Buy it! Buy it! The only downfall is finding pellets...

Tracy Sherman : Don't waste your time with this grill

The grill worked great, until about 1 week after the warranty expired. Every time I tried to turn the grill on, the GFCI breaker would trip. Initially, customer service was great. After some troubleshooting, we were able to determine the fire rod needed to be replaced. They replaced it free of charge because of how close it was to the warranty expiring, but the part was on back order, so it was 3 months later before I ever got the part. That fire rod worked one time. Another was sent, but it didn't work at all. It didn't trip the breaker, but it never heated up. Yet another one was sent and it worked for maybe 5 months. After debating whether to waste money on a new fire rod or get rid of the grill, I decided I would give it one more try and ordered another fire rod. When I installed it, it doesn't trip the breaker, but it doesn't ignite the wood pellets. After more troubleshooting, they have now determined that it is the controller causing the problems with the fire rods. They won't refund my money for this last fire rod because it is already opened??? How are you supposed to install a part without opening it? They won't send me one that works unless I order a controller. I am done with this grill and I am done with Char-Griller period. As the headline says, don't waste your time with this product!
