About - Brinkmann 810-2410-SB (Home Depot)
The Brinkmann 810-2410-SB (Home Depot) is part of the gas grill test program at Consumer Reports. In our lab tests, gas grill models like the 810-2410-SB (Home Depot) are rated on multiple criteria, such as those listed below. Low temp performance: Combines the evenness of heating over the grill's surface at the low setting (using thermocouples) and the models ability to cook chicken and fish on the gril at that setting without burning the food. High temp evenness: Evenness of heating over the grill's surface at the high setting, using thermocouples. Indirect cooking: This indicates how well the grill will slow cook foods when only some of the burners are on and the food isn't placed directly over the flame.

Features & Specs - Brinkmann 810-2410-SB (Home Depot)
Stainless-steel grates Primary cooking grates made of stainless-steel are generally sturdier than those made of coated steel and resist rust even without a porcelain coating. Stainless-steel grates	No
Coated-cast-iron grates The grill's primary cooking grates may be made of porcelain coated cast-iron, which generally sears meats better and keeps grilling temperatures more consistent than grates made of porcelain coated steel. The porcelain coating usually makes such grates easier to clean than other surfaces, and the grates should resist rust as long as their porcelain coating isn't chipped. Coated-cast-iron grates	Yes
All or mostly stainless Includes more than just a panel or other trim. Based on our limited tests, nonmagnetic stainless is less likely to corrode. All or mostly stainless	No
Long-warranty burners While burners remain the grill's most-replaced part, most are warranted for only 3 to 5 years. Better burners are covered for 10 years or more. Long-warranty burners	No
Side burner A side burner, which resembles a gas-stove burner and has its own heat control, is handy if you want to cook vegetables or sauce without leaving the grill. Side burner	Yes
Infrared burner Gas burner that uses infrared technology (ceramic burner, plates and screens, or troughs as some examples) for cooking. An indirect flame is used for cooking food. Burner can be located as the main burner, side burner, rotisserie burner, or any combination of burners. Infrared burner	No

Comment:

I bought one of these for a vaction property up in Colorado and liked it so much that I bought another one for home. I have owned them both for over 2 years and had no problems. They do need to be cleaned after every use, if you do that they will last a long time. I caught them both on sale for [$] and bought a cover for the one at home, the other one is kept in a storage building when not in use and neither one has any rust. For the money you just can't beat them. I grill at least once a week at home all year round, except in bad weather.

How long have you owned it:

More than six months

Bottom Line

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

Comment:

Good grill for the price. I paid under two hundred dollars for this grill and have no complaints. Gets the job done for steaks, chicken and ribs. Grill will not rust as long as it is taken care of. I have had this grill for almost two years now and no rust. I would suggest buying separate Brinkmann grill cover. You take care of your grill and your grill will take care of you, plain and simple..

Comment:

We grill 4-5 times a week. This unit rusted out through the sides, and more importantly the gas burners and the starter. Brinkmann web site says the ignitor and burners are back ordered with no expected date. Grill is useless.

How long have you owned it:

More than six months

Bottom Line

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
