Gas grill consumer quality and safety testing

Overview

Consumer testing of gas grills has revealed that premium pricing does not necessarily correlate with higher quality or safety. A Stiftung Warentest study found that the most expensive model tested, priced at 749 euros, ranked last because pollutants were discovered on the grill grate that could contaminate food.

In contrast, the Rösle Videro Pure G3, priced at approximately 459 euros, was identified as a test winner in the grill cart category with a grade of ‘Gut’ (2.0), noted for its ease of assembly and even heat distribution. Other evaluations highlighted the Burnhard Big Fred Deluxe for its high power and versatility, achieving a top rating of 1.11 due to features like its infrared ceramic ‘Sizzle-Zone’.

Additional practical assessments examined whether modern technology, such as the WLAN thermometer found in the Weber Spirit EPX-435R Stealth Edition, justifies the cost of high-end models.
