Pros
- All steel: frame, walls, roof and bar tops, so a grill’s side clearance never touches wood
- Zero critical reviews among the 11 written for the XL size
- Room in the centre for more than one grill, by the maker’s words
- Sold and shipped by Amazon
Cons
- Its own page says 89.5 in tall; its manual drawing says 94.25 in
- The record is thin: 11 written reviews of its own, and its 4.8 is shared with the smaller Rockport
- About $600 more than the cedar Saxony XL
- The 100 mph rating needs the manual’s anchoring, and the warranty excludes wind
“I put this up all by myself. It is very good quality and very solid. The hard part was screwing it down to the cement patio.”— Charlie, Amazon · Verified owner
