Fire Mountain Everest 4 burner review
First post after lots of reading...
Been looking at barbecues since last summer, had my heart set on a 4 burner Outback or BroilKing. 4 burner being the forum choice here, but could never quite part with the money - fired up my old broilking yesterday, poor thing needs to be put to rest so time to buy!
I keep coming back to the Fire Mountain Everest 4 Burner Gas Barbecue though, getting great reviews on amazon, cost £199.
This is about half what a good Outback/BroilKing will cost for the same.
Was hoping for a more independent review if anyone has got one, or any thoughts on this model?
Short Spec:
• One gloss enamelled cast iron cooking griddle: 42cm x 38.5cm
• One gloss enamelled cast iron cooking grill: 42cm x 38.5cm
• 4 x 12,000 BTU (Max Heat Output) cast iron burners
• Durable and long life stainless steel hood and control panel
• Wire warming rack
• Built in temperature gauge
• Electronic piezo ignition, so incredibly easy to light
• Includes propane gas regulator
• Assembled size: 144cm wide x 56cm deep x 106cm high

Re: Fire Mountain Everest 4 burner review
Can you get spares? This is the #1 question you should be asking. If not, when you need to replace a burner (they all need replacing), you may have a £200 piece of scrap metal instead of a BBQ. If spares are available - how much are they and how long will they be available for?

Re: Fire Mountain Everest 4 burner review
This is the problem with my old broil king, getting rust holes in the burner. But any excuse for a new barbecue, it has probably done me 10 years.
The question is whether this burner will do 10 years in which case the barbecue will probably want replacing too.
A search of parts for fire mountain reveals nothing. Not sure they even have a web site.

Re: Fire Mountain Everest 4 burner review
I have a fully stainless steel BBQ - the only things which have needed replacing in 10 years are the burners and the heat deflectors. Fortunately spares are available - and i've had this thing more than 10 years. Burners will not last you 10 years - not even stainless ones - i've changed mine two times already - and they are stainless.

Honestly - I cant recall exactly. But I'm thinking about £400 - £500 from Costco. It was over 10 years ago. I just took the pressure washer to it last week in preparation for the grilling season ahead

Wow, that's a top bit of kit. £400 is a lot of money now for a gas bbq but back then...
Doing well though by the sounds of it. [THUMBS UP SIGN]

Buy cheap, pay twice. Still, you have to do your homework. Lots of these Costco grills were sold, hence you can get spares - from China no less! After sales support is essential. If you can buy spare burners up front - you WILL need them.

You don't need to be a costco member to buy online, but I think you pay 5% premium.
