Is the Monument Grills 6 Burner Gas Grill Still HOT After 6 Months? Updated Review

[@MrBdogg317]

I’ve had this grill for 4 years now and it’s still going strong. Love this grill.

[@Mixdplate]

Excellent review! You were straight forward, yet informative and really thank you for mentioning the "future proof" aspect. I recently moved and don't know anyone yet. The most I'll have to cook for is my son & grandson when they come by and I'm not even an avid griller. So this made me think more realistically, I'll be looking into their smaller model. Glad I found your channel!

[@tomwadek]

Thank you! I’m glad you found my channel too. Cheers!

Looking at buying a new grill. Reviews on Monument grills have been good. I'm looking at 4 burner and 6 burner. I'm only cooking for 2, but always seem to make a lot of food (and eat it all). I enjoyed your pros and cons of this grills. Often KZbin video's don't give a true review, but you seemed to be honest in your review. Thanks

[@tomwadek]

No problem! Glad I could help

[@raistlinsly1]

thanks for the video I'm updating to this grill from 15 yr old Weber genesis its seen better days. Nothing in this video surprises me with the experiences from my old grill. Glad you put it thru its paces cause i will be using mine on a heavy rotation.

[@tomwadek]

No problem. I’m glad you enjoyed it. I know what you mean with the Weber, great grill. This one is good too. Not a Weber but definitely hits above its weight class. Happy grilling

[@rosiem1]

Awesome review. Thanks for being honest, I own two blackstone 36-inch flsttop grils and a small weber charcoal grill. I've been shopping around for a regular gas grill, and so far, I like this brand over char-broil, nexgril. This review absolutely helped me make my decision comfortably. 👍

[@tomwadek]

No problem. Glad I could help. Happy grilling!

[@English_cliff_in_USA]

Just bought the six burner. As I cook lots for vegetarian friends need the space for my veggie woks and stopping cross contamination. But also always wanted a good sear burner for my carnivorous friends and myself!! Thanks for the update!

[@tomwadek]

No problem! It’s a great versatile grill that hits above its weight class. Happy grilling

[@vijakrajpoot]

"How's it looking after 2 months? I am planning to buy this."

[@tomwadek]

What do you think? Does the 6 burner or 4 burner make more sense for you? Let me know below 😊

[@juandeharo66]

The 4 burner with the 2 side burners is perfect, I thought it might be small but it's not, I can fit alot of food on it. The whole grill is heavy duty. The grill is easy to clean, grease trap can be removed easily .The wheels on it suck ass and the bottom doors could use better magnets but everything else is great, the price on it is affordable

[@tomwadek]

@@juandeharo66 looks we agree on the pros and cons. Definitely hits above its weight class. Thanks for sharing.

[@mffl2002]

In a household of 3, I think a 4 burner makes the more sense to me.

[@tomwadek]

@@mffl2002 yeah I think so too.

[@MrRandyj72]

My only reason looking at this model was because it comes with both a side burner and sear burner. I wish they made a 4 burner version of it with a rotisserie burner

[@tomwadek]

It’s been great. The 6 burner is a beast but a gas guzzler.

[@J0S1TO]

They do have it here is the model # monument grills 35633 Same still but only 4 burners and 2 side burners

[@johnmcdonald9161]

great information. I just purchased a 4 burner and hope it is as good as you have represented it.

[@tomwadek]

Congrats on the purchase! Happy grilling

[@rocklobster5074]

I just bought their 4 burner model that comes with the side burner and side sear some. It gets delivered next week. I liked seeing it in person at my local Lowe's and I hope it lasts me a while considering i paid 500 bucks plus tax for it.

[@tomwadek]

Congrats! Enjoy the grill.

[@XxCaptNKnucklesxX]

Dam 500. That’s a steal

[@Hermulus]

Almost bought this grill as my very first grill. Decided on a 22" Weber kettle spur of the moment and haven't looked back -- until now...

[@tomwadek]

Haha, actually the Weber kettle is a fantastic charcoal grill. Now, if you are in the market for a gas grill, this grill is badass!

[@katzsteel]

4 burner for me and Grillgrates are a game changer on gas grills and flare ups. They are awesome and give you more cooking options.

[@tomwadek]

Which part number works with this grill? I may pick some up

[@katzsteel]

@@tomwadek You’d have to measure per their website. They do custom too. I bought the grates along with the griddle at a very good price.

[@tomwadek]

@@katzsteel thanks. I’ll take a look

[@damirjalali]

Thx for the video. I honestly need a genuine answer. Does the clear vision on that grill hold ? I was told it gets darker and discolored & sometimes shattered? ❤

[@tomwadek]

In the video I show you how to clean it. It requires routine maintenance. I usually deep clean my grills 3 times a year so I do it then. Never shattered.

[@JoshuaWaldman-k7v]

Great review , you covered all ends ..

[@rogermiller3212]

I want to be sure I have room for a griddle for sides and still have room for burgers etc. I’m trying to decide between a 4 burner or a 6 burner. Menards has the 6 for $599 and Lowes has the 4 for nearly $500 so It seems like a no brainer but I’m afraid the 6 is just way too big. Thoughts?

[@tomwadek]

I wish I could help you. It’s really up to you and if you think you will grow into the 6 burner grill fairly soon. The price difference seems worth it though

Does the 4 burner have all the same features? minus 2 burners of course....I definitely do not need 6 burners Great Review

[@zenpool1]

We bought a 4 . The searing unit gets a workout . 3 years in , we now have a few small dark spots on the grid , I assume from meat drippings . Any advice on cleaning the unit , or should we replace ?

[@tomwadek]

Try a tooth brush and baking soda/water. If it’s not hurting performance, I wouldn’t worry about it

[@Big_Pipe70]

Thoughts on the pros and cons of the stainless steel grates on the six burner, versus the cast iron that appears to come on the 4 burner model?

[@tomwadek]

Cast iron will be more prone to rust and is generally heavier with more care involved but retains heat and give a great sear depending on its size and density. Ss will be more maintenance free and can still provide a great sear if it has a thicker gauge. A lot of folks suggested buying “GrillGate” to take this grill to another level

[@gronet75]

​@tomwadek is the 4 burners coming with ss grates?

[@tomwadek]

@@gronet75 I believe ss but I don’t work for the company. It’s best to check their website or ask their customer service

[@BigLewBBQ]

Wipe that glass with denatured alcohol. It cleans it well no need to remove it. I found the six burner was too much for my needs.

[@andrewcontreras7190]

Do you have a better link where to find the 6 burner with glass?

[@sarahkumkumapoovu]

Great video, very helpful! Im curious if you have had experience with the rotisserie feature... does it work well or is it more of a gimmick? That''s causing me to debate between the 4 or 6 grill option (the 4-grill doesn't come with the rotisserie function AFAIK).

[@tomwadek]

In my original review, I tested out the rotisserie. It works great but is limited to about a 5lb bird. The motors are strong and consistent. Hope that help

[@sarahkumkumapoovu]

@@tomwadek thanks so much! That really helps.

[@anthonyvalade2959]

On lowes website it shows a 4 burner with rotisserie

[@jamesgibson3242]

This company makes a Natural Gas grill also, I think two. I wonder why NG grills are becoming more scarce these days. Most are Propane now and when you find NG they cost more and often times you need to pay even more on top of the grill by buying a conversion kit that doesn't come with it.

[@tomwadek]

for some reason its less popular. Thanks for watching , cheers.

[@nikbadshah]

Hey great review video. I had been interested in this grill but always wondered how well that glass would last, but good to see that's it easily cleanable. Btw, did you say you can do a Brisket on this grill??

[@tomwadek]

No problem, glad you enjoyed the video. Yeah, you can do a brisket but it wouldn’t be my first choice or ideal

[@nikbadshah]

@Tom's Kitchen oh wow ok, you mind sharing how and how much time to cook a brisket on a bbq grill? I mean definitely the low and slow smokers would be ideal for that but I don't got a smoker so interested to know how one can try that on a bbq grill. Thnx

[@piezoman79]

Yeah, nah. Apart from changing the foil grease traps as needed, and scraping the crusties off the grate before each use, I’ve cleaned my genesis grill exactly once in my 6 years of ownership, and that was only when I bought it used off Craigslist. It still looks and cooks better than any other gas grill I’ve ever used.

[@SP-jp3qu]

Is it easy to keep the window clean?

Any problems with rust? Im concerned that if i leave it outside under a cover that i will get surface rust. Im in SE NC and its a very humid environment here and would hate to have rust problems... thanks for the vids.

[@tomwadek]

None at all but I’m in California so if we do get some rain it’s usually short lived.

[@dougprentice1363]

It's not real stainless. I found this out after I used it for the first time. I never would have bought it if I knew. I think I've watched every review.... No-one mentioned this. I expect it to be totally rusted in a year.

[@Shazam-sdn]

I don’t see this available anymore. Do you have a recommendation for a 4 or 6 burner

[@ChristianMerhy]

Horrible experience with Monument. The design with the glass is unsafe and represented a problem after three uses. Their customer support was horrible. After navigating the support organization to no avail, I contacted the COO of Monument Grill to express my deep dissatisfaction with the handling of a serious issue I’ve experienced with one of your products. I purchased the Mesa Stainless Steel 5-Burner Infrared Liquid Propane Gas Grill with 1 Side Burner (Model M405BZ) from Lowe’s on November 17, 2024, for $399.00. Unfortunately, the grill has proven to be defective and potentially hazardous.Adding to my frustration, your representative suggested that the issue was caused by a grease fire. This explanation is not only incorrect but also dismissive. To clarify, I cooked two steaks and some vegetables prior to the incident-there was no grease fire. After using the grill only three times, the glass shattered, and the main lid imploded at the handle during the third use. Thankfully, no one was injured, but this incident raises significant safety concerns about the product's quality and durability. I will be posting video and pictures but wanted to save a few of you from making the mistake I did. Go buy a Weber - much better company and product.
