Editor's Pick
|
The E-325 has a large capacity for a three-burner grill, is easy and intuitive to use, and it can be very versatile if you use it for multi-zone cooking.

Our only real gripe with this grill is the storage doors under the firebox don’t match the construction quality of the rest of the grill.
