Fuego Element F21C Carbon Steel Gas Grill LP
In 2014 Fuego Living launched the Fuego Element gas grill with many improvements from the original 2011 model. Since then, we’ve read your reviews and suggestions and responded with the new and improved 2016 F21C model Fuego Element gas grill. The original award winning sleek design remains (Robert Brunner: Apple & Beats by Dr. Dre) while several new functional upgrades were added in 2016. Beginning from the ground up, we added a wider and more stable wheel base while still fitting into a snug 21″ x 21″ square footprint. The wheels now come factory installed onto the wheel base – only 14 fasteners are needed to complete the entire assembly process – easily done in less than 30 minutes. We’ve designed a new control valve allowing improved temperature control (250F-650F) while maintaining our industry best 500F in just 5 minute pre-heat time. Also, we’ve added a reliable, improved push button electronic ignition system. Our heavy 15b porcelain enamel cast iron grate with a large 346 sq.in cooking surface paired with our 21,000 BTU/hr. dual ring burner remains unchanged and continues to produce amazing sear marks on meats and veggies. That’s enough cooking surface to grill more than 12 quarter-pound burgers at once – more than enough for a family of four or the neighborhood sports team. While we do not anticipate any problems with your product, should you have an issue please contact our friendly support staff by phone at 888.883.8346 or email at info@fuegoliving.com for assistance.

Not bad but not stellar and it basically meets the manufacturer’s … Purchased 5/16. My situation: smallish condo balcony. I grill often in the summer using both direct and indirect methods. My old Weber grill died and took up a lot of room on my balcony, so I searched for a smaller but equally functional replacement. The design of the Fuego Element intrigued me and (since the 2016 update) seemed to get high reviews. So after having it for about week and trying to cook a representative variety of food items, here is my verdict: It’s just ok. Not bad but not…
Cooks great, assembles hard I was really happy to get the chance to review this nicely made grill by Fuego. I think it is their second or third revision of the original 2010 design. My current grill has a nice rotisserie, but I have always disliked the performance of its three burner grill. It is very uneven and goes through burners like crazy due to corrosion. The Fuego claims to have most of these issue beaten by design, and I would have to say this is true.First, the company makes a big deal about the…
