Nexgrill leads this grill with 60,000 BTUs. Read the sentence that number sits in and it shrinks. The 60,000 covers four main burners and one side burner together.
No source splits it. So the headline figure on model 720-0830H counts a burner that never sits under the lid.
That leaves a fair question for a cart selling at around $399. Nexgrill sells its Deluxe carts above this one, so something here had to give. What is actually under the food here, and what got left out to reach that price?

First Impressions of the Nexgrill 4-Burner Propane Gas Grill
The carton is long, because the finished cart is. How long the build takes, and how many parts it needs, go unpublished. Clear an evening rather than an hour.
Standing up, it is plainer and brighter than the Deluxe carts beside it. Stainless covers the lid, the control panel, both side shelves and both doors. An oval gauge is set into the lid face. The panel carries five knobs, four for the box and one outboard.
Lift the lid and the grids are lighter than expected. They are stainless wrapped rather than cast iron, and the hand notices immediately.
First cook was a loaded grate of thighs and sausages. Every burner lit from its own knob, with no crossover to fail and no lighter needed. What fell from the thighs never reached a burner port. Skin browned fast, and the centre of the grate ran as hot as the ends.
Key Features of the Nexgrill 4-Burner Propane Gas Grill
Most of this spec table is a list of what Nexgrill made from stainless. The rest is unusually blunt about what the grill does not have. Both halves deserve a read before the price does your thinking.
- Four stainless steel main burners: Four tubes let you run a hot third and a cool third. Each has its own knob. What no source gives is how much of the 60,000 BTU total they take.
- Stainless steel: It is the whole material story here. Lid, control panel, side shelves, two doors, flame tamers, main burners and the side burner. The grids are wrapped in it too.
- Electric Igniter: Each knob carries its own electronic spark. There is no reaching across the box with a lighter. A failure takes out one burner and leaves the other three lighting.
- Side Burner: A stainless side burner sits outboard of the main four. Sauce pans and stockpots come off the grate and free it up. Nexgrill’s product page attaches no output figure to it.
- Angled stainless steel flame tamers: Every burner runs under its own sheet of angled steel. Drippings land on hot steel and turn into smoke rather than flare. The gaps between burner tubes stop showing up on the food.
- 462.3 sq in of grate, 164.5 above it: The advertised 626.8 sq in is those two figures added. Only the lower number cooks. The upper one holds buns and finished food.
- Four casters and two doors: The cart rolls on four casters rather than two wheels and two feet. Behind the doors is a tank hole, not an enclosure.
- Cover: None comes in the box. Nexgrill sells a matching 51 in. Grill Cover as accessory 700-0888, which is exactly the length of the grill.
Start with what the headline number will and will not tell you. Nexgrill publishes 60,000 BTUs once, and its own description hangs that total on five burners. The figure on the box includes a burner that never sees the food.
That makes the usual heat-per-square-inch comparison dishonest here, so this review does not run it. What can be said is how the fire is arranged. Four separate tubes under 462.3 sq in is real zoning. Turn the middle pair off and the outer pair still holds a roast.
The grids are where the budget went quiet. Wrapped stainless heats fast and gives that heat straight back to the air. Bar marks come from contact rather than mass. They land lighter than cast iron leaves them.
That shows up the moment you start checking food. A grate with little stored heat drops when the lid opens. It climbs again once you shut it. Load it once, shut it, and the four burners hold a full surface easily.
Build, handling and durability
The dimensions explain more about ownership than any material claim. This cart takes 51 inches of wall, stands 46 inches high and reaches 24.75 inches deep. Small patios should measure before falling for the price.
Read the spec table closely and a pattern appears. Stainless is named in nine places and described in none. No grade, no gauge, nothing about any panel.
“Stainless steel wrapped” describes the outside of a grid. It says nothing about what lies under it.
Handling is the happier surprise. Four casters mean the cart turns where it stands instead of pivoting on two fixed feet. On grass, though, a 51 inch cart on casters is a two-person job. Nexgrill’s own product page publishes no mass, so how firmly it plants itself is unknown.
The cart underneath reads better in photographs than in the spec table. Two stainless doors close over the whole base, so the cylinder is out of sight. Nexgrill still records the tank arrangement as a hole rather than an enclosure. Expect a bottle behind a door, not a drawer that pulls out.
Running costs, upkeep and value
Price first, because it carries the argument. The retail listing stood at around $399.00 when we looked on 2026-09-17. The listing was in stock and orderable. Prices move, so treat that as a marker rather than a promise.
At that money the parts list is generous. Four main burners, a side burner, and 626.8 sq in of total surface. Stainless covers everything the fire touches. Little at this price arrives with that much metal in the hot half.
Then read the warranty and the mood changes. The burners carry 5 years. The grates carry 1 year, and so does everything else on the cart.
Nexgrill’s own headline bullet advertises the shorter term. It prints “1 year warranty” above a table giving its burners five.
Upkeep splits the same way. Wrapped stainless grids ask for a brush and nothing else. No oiling, no seasoning night.
Look for where the grease ends up and the spec table goes quiet. Angled tamers vaporise much of it and the rest goes somewhere unstated.
One more cost belongs on the list. The matching cover is an accessory with its own part number, sized to the 51 in. length. Order it with the grill if this one stays outside.
Possible Nexgrill 4-Burner Propane Gas Grill Complaints
- The grates give heat away faster than they hold it: Wrapped stainless has little mass to store energy in. Peek every few minutes and the box spends the cook recovering. Load the grate in one go and keep the lid down, and four burners cope fine. Cooks who lift and turn constantly will prefer iron.
- The warranty thins out after twelve months: Five years on the burners is fair, and the burners are not usually what fails first. Hinges, casters, tamers and doors all carry one year. Nothing bites in the first summer. The second is where the bill lands.
