Cast Iron Hibachi BBQ Grill

mine came in good time. assembly was easy.... washed it before use.....fired it up, it stunk, putrid smell....like some chemical burning.......tried it anyway and black paint or dye or whatever came off grates and covered the chicken with black oily residue....I actually took a piece of chicken and rubbed it back and forth on the grate and the piece got blacker and blacker and the grate got more of a silver color......threw the food away......maybe the grill will go next...this after I scrubbed the grates before use.....
At first glance it looks good, if you buy this I suggest you clean it over and over till no more black whatever they used to coat it is gone...
I read one other simmlar report about dye ir ink, I,m surprised there were not more.....

This is a good cast iron grill for camping and home use.
Easy to assemble and use.
I gave it a 3 star because the cooking grids was not finished well. It had slag from casting still on it and needed ground off to be finished properly.

This is a very convenient little grill and cooks well. It is the best of its type since it is made of cast iron and not pressed tinny metal like most of the other hibachi 2 burner grills with adjustable grill height that I could find available at this time. It is not as good however as the cast iron grills of this type that were available in the 1970's which were of even heavier and strudier construction But again it is far superior to all others that I could find that are available at this time. If anyone comes across better ones like they used to be please let us know and where to get.

Great item. Exactly what I was looking for to replace an old, broken hibachi I'd had for years.

Hibachi
I have not been able to find a Hibachi in SE Washington State for the past 3 years. An online search took me to Amazon.com and this Hibachi. It is good quality and the out dated complaint about the painted handles has been corrected. The only problem I had was the left cooking grid was not very stable in the grid support. I sent an email to info@KayHomeProducts.com on Monday evening. Tuesday morning I had an email response from Cathy advising she was shipping me a replacement left cooking grid. I received it in Saturday's mail. Because of the product quality and outstanding customer service I have ordered a 2nd Hibachi to use when we have company and need more cooking service.
