Minden Master Gas Grill

The Bottom Line

This compact three burner gas grill was designed to ship directly to consumers limiting the size and weight of the unit to something most shipping companies would transport. Even with these limits this 3-burner gas grill produces high, even heat and works very well as a basic grill for around $400. With additional features (purchasable anytime) you can give this grill a side burner, stainless steel cooking grates, a full sized griddle and much more. What is impressive about this grill is that despite the lightweight construction this grill is strong and durable, certainly worth the price.

Guide Review - Minden Master Gas Grill

The Minden Grill is designed as a full sized gas grill that can be mail ordered. The designer has worked out a way of putting together a good grill that breaks down for shipping and weighs in at around 110 pounds (making it possible for affordable ground shipping). The grill comes in four colors and has a series of upgrades possible. The basic unit is a good, straightforward grill with a number of customizable extras like a side burner, griddle, ice bucket, and more. Because of the design the makers of this grill promise that you can complete the assembly and be cooking in 30 to 45 minutes.

As a basic gas grill this unit seems on the expensive side (around $400) especially for a grill that is small in size and has not stainless steel (other than the burners). On the other hand this is a good quality grill that is durable and cooks very well (very even heat). The interesting design feature of this grill is the continuous work space across the top. The cooking surface is level with the side tables and there is no interruption of this space from side to side. This gives it an almost Japanese feel to the unit. As for the size of the grill, this is not the grill for someone who needs lots of space (or wants to brag about the size of their grill) but it is perfect for the person who needs a smaller grill. It is a perfect unit for the small family.

One of the strengths of this grill is the ability to add to it additional features in the future. There are not a lot of grills on the market that you can put a side burner on. Adding a side burner into this unit is a quick and easy operation that virtually anyone can do. Similarly other features can be easily replaced or added as needed.

One other advantage of this grill is that it can be shipped virtually anywhere in the U.S. or Canada so you can get it shipped where you need it.
