Char-BroilTrough Firebox (G352-2100-W1)

I appreciated the early delivery. For $98 Cdn, I expected a substantial weight product. This is lightweight stamped metal and would be more reasonably in the $20 range. We need it so there’s not much we could do but buy a new BBQ so this is the necessary alternative. Shame on Char-Broil.

Husband is hard to drag a review out of. I asked him about the product. He said it was, “fine.” I said,” It has to be 20 words for a review”. He said,” I don’t do that”. I asked if he was happy with the product, did it fit his grill, was it well made, how many stars would he give it—4 or 5? He said yes to all and 5 stars! Whew, hard work! 5 stars for my husband’s secretary (me) too!

Char-Broil Trough Firebox (G352-2100-W1) ..replacement fits perfectly but is definitely lighter gauge steel. The thicker original lasted almost 3 years of countless hi temp searing and grilling before if first rusted then burned thru.The screws holding everything together constantly loosen from heat expansion and cooling contraction. Even a contortionist midget would not be able to tighten them. Some actually fell out on the ground.A simple extremely low cost fix would be lock washers! Maybe 10 cents worth.That is why I gave 4 vs 5 stars. Otherwise, the value is very good (price to function and reasonable durability, we cover ours but is outside in Chicago weather year round)

It's a firebox, made by Char-Broil for their Infrared grill. The only reason I needed to purchase was due to the original one rusting out. That is the only problem that I've ever encountered with this grill and firebox.
