How heavy is this LXX grill? Do you have to purchase the propane hose adapter if only using small portable propane tanks?

I am 60 years old and not the strongest woman but I can lift this in and out of the storage compartment in our RV. The small propane bottles ( Coleman green) just screw into the grill. The small white tanks will need a hose and adapter.

We purchased it for my Mom & Step-Dad. It is a heavier gril as far as the portable grills go , but it is very easy to manage because of the wheels. To just use the propane bottles, you do not need a special adaptor, altho we did because we also bought the small propane tank. The down sides to this grill is it is VERY HOT...it takes some getting used to.

No. It comes designed for use with the small bottles. You need to buy the adapter hose if you want to use it with 10lb and 20lb tanks.

50 to 60 pounds. It rolls very easily in the opened and closed positions. You do not need the propane hose adapter if you use the small tanks. I only use the small tanks and we use our grill 2 - 3 times per week. The tank will last about a month. With the lid closed it heats up VERY quickly! Watch it. The small tanks are always on-sale. Walmart has the best everyday price and they are on-sale at Menards this week 4 for $9.

It is slightly heavy, but not so much so as to be a deal breaker. With a little practice, you can set it up literally with one hand. The 1 pound tanks do not require an adapter, they just thread right on. I love my grill. You won't be sorry if you get the griddle for one side.

The Grill only weighs about 30 ish pounds, not bad at all. If you are using a small tank it can screw directly into the grill. This is a good unit. I personally have used both the small tank and larger 20 ppond tank. The small er one is handy for tailgating somewhere, then I use the larger for camping when the grill is set up and in place for a few days. Hope this helps you out, Tim

Camco also sells an adapter hose and it says on their item description that it can be used with this portable grill

It does not come with a tank. You have 2 options. If you buy the small screw-on tanks, available most anywhere like WalMart etc, everything is ready to attach one of those. I purchased two of those 16.4 oz tanks and after using the grill 3 times for about 25 minutes each, I still am on the first tank. If you want to hook it up to one of those larger propane tanks like those used for the big grills, you'll need to purchase a separate hose for that. I did buy one of those as well, but have not used it yet. One end attaches right to the grill and the other to the 5 gallon propane tank, nothing else needed but the hose itself.

Yes this will work with grills that use the small 1 pound tanks. HOWEVER, the hose I received was (and still is) defective. For some reason this hose reduces the volume (flow) and will only work on low flame. I have another hose and used that one...

Yes, I use it with a 20lb propane tank, the same as used for a propane grill. You will need to buy a hose that has the correct connection for the stove, and and adapter to connect the hose to the tank.

Only with a hose adapter and you lose the portability. If this is your only home grill, you may be able to get an adapter.

You need to buy the gas adapter hose. Out of the box it works with the small 1lb campling stove and lantern tanks.

As far as I know it only takes the standard size propane tanks, and this appears to be indicated on the Broil King website as well.I think, however, the same company at one point made a portable grill that did use the 1lb canisters. (Although it doesn't seem to be on their website now.)

Yes, it will connect securely to standard propane tanks that you can buy or rent anywhere. I would recommend, however, using the smaller 10 lb tank rather than the 20 lb just to make it easier to carry around. Be careful with this thing; it puts out a formidable flame. You should have a readily available hose or water supply and avoid using around dry brush, etc.

Uses the same 20 lb tank as any other gas grill. Look up barbecue gas tanks on Amazon.

Hello there, I bought the hose to allow the use of a large propane container rather than the small ones that the unit is designed for. I don't plan to move the grill around or use it portably so buying a lot of small containers vs. a large one once in awhile made both monetary sense as well as environmentally friendly sense. The hose fits a standard propane tank and the grill nicely and is just right as far a length was concerned for me. If you plan to use it portably there is no point but if it will be stationary you will save money and a lot of trips for more small cans. I hope this answers your question and is helpful. By the way there are other solutions from a variety of companies but they all require a lot of fittings to make it work and this opens the door to a host of other problems.

Although I have a 20# tank connected to a Q2200, it is my understanding if a grill will take a portable 16oz tank, the Weber hose will work on all. The tank should have standard threads.

You have to use 20 pound tank . It comes with a 5 foot hose and regulator for 20 pound tank . You can get adapter to connect to 1 pound canister. I have mine set up to connect to my camping trailer gas supply . It work great any way you set it up.

The valve on this tank is identical to a 20 lb propane tank typically used with gas grills - right hand thread. I think the other end of your connector hose would need to connect to a "POL fitting with a left hand thread".

Any size propane tank will work, it is just a matter of having the right adapters to connect. My unit had the typical connector you would find on a barbeque grill but I use an adapter for the 1 lb can, available at most hardware stores. Other than that just make sure you hook the hoses up correctly (I had the water in hooked to the water out on the first try).

I run my 7500 watt gen set on natural gas. One time I did try using propane just to see how it would work with a 20 pound tank and it seemed to do well. Don't remember what the size of the hose but I think it was 3/8 inch.
