Is the Trailmate the same as the Chef's mate only smaller? The Chef's mate has rolled edges to the grill vs sharp edges as Cabo that feels cheaper

Yes, with a few other minor appearance changes. The sharp edges may be part of that.

I like this grill. It's compact, easy to use and, pretty much as advertised.To date I've only used it 3 times, but it's nice. I pull it out of the trunk and in 30 seconds my wife and I have a camp site.

This one seems to have a more sturdy design. My old model, I went to set it down on the glass cutting board that I use underneath it, and just tapped one of the feet and it broke off. This model is larger and better made. I believe that it has been improve. I especially like the searing ability. I found the older model not to do a good job with searing the meat. As a side note the waffle plates that are out there do not fit this model.

The differences are slight. You can find these listed at justportablegrills.com (click on Compare, then down the page to Compare Coleman Roadtrip Series Grills).

Hello Craig, Hope all is well. Yes the only difference is that one is black mate and the other is stainless stell finish. Personally if I owned a stainless rifle I would want a stainless mount. That is of course my personal opion. The best bet is go with your instincts. HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!!! BEST REGARDS, YOUR FRIENDS AT SBDGLOBAL Bridget Customer Service

It would be easier to go to broilkingbbq.com and compare the 2 grills. The XL has more features.

Floating hinge, the 2 heating plates adjust to the thickness of food being cooked. One item of interest is that the 2 plates doesn't float far apart for real thick items like porterhouse steak cut 1 inch or more thick. Hamburgers and other meats work great, the heat seems to be fairly even but the food will burn quickly because there is no timer or heat control so you must watch vey carefully to keep from burning food. All in all it is a very good unit. My sugestin to the designers, design the floating 2 plates where they will float apart up to 11/2 or maybe 2 inches apart then would be ideal for thick steaks, steaks cooked on the unit are very tasty.

I found a video on YouTube from StrollerDepot comparing the two strollers. Apparently there are three differences-- 1) The regular Caboose is 5 pounds heavier than the Ultralight, 2) The canopy on the Ultralight is larger, and 3) the Ultralight comes with the parent tray and the regular Caboose doesn't. Considering you can get a generic, universal parent tray for ~$10, I fail to see why the Ultralight costs SO MUCH more than the regular Caboose!

The $8.99 grates on Chargriller.com (the uncoated raw ones) didn't exactly fit the duo model grill correctly. The duo, has has small notices in on the rail that the grates sit on which all three grates must fit between (they are meant to make sure they don't slide around and separate). In my case, the raw grates were just a little bit too wide. This also required the removal of the warming rack (which I never really used anyway).On top of that, this rack is not a raw uncoated rack, but is actually enameled. These are more comparable to the Porcelain Grates with 1 notch sold on Chargriller.com. Hope that helps.

The best thing i can tell you is to check www.trailcampro.com and see if they did a review on it.I sent the unit i had back wasn't very good day or night so i went with the Browning strike force model and Multri 990 (2013) version.But to be onest they all have some sort of quirk.

Well since it's not yet released you can't really do a head to head. But the Bushbox packs up flat as opposed to the cylindrical solo. They both weigh the same. The Bushbox let's you keep feeding fuel in the side without taking the pot/pan off the top. You can also burn charcoal in the BB XL to grill. IMHO the XL is the way to go. It packs soo thin you can stash it anywhere. The solo looks too bulky to carry in a pack.

Dear C.Smith,The only difference will be the spatula. Otherwise the cooking ability is the same.Thank you for allowing us to be of service to you.Sincerely,Tonia D.

It saves money buying the extras separately. The condora nylon pouch is very high quality and highly suggested. The small grill / adjustable fire grate is great to have as well. I have a couple vids on this kit. This one is a total breakdown of pricing and overview http://youtu.be/n7jZqGguhUE

I purchased this for my fiancée's mother. She has one previously and was devastated when the heating element's electric controller failed after a few years use. She felt there was no better looking grill and few equivalent in performance. I am not an electric grill expert, nor am I familiar with the George Foreman unit. I would recommend that you keep it protected from the elements with the cover or keep it out of the rain. I assume you have a preference for electric outdoor grills but if you're open to charcoal, get a Big Green Egg. Worth every penny. But definitely a different class of grill then this unit. Thank you for asking. I hope that helps your decision. Good luck. I purchased this for my fiancée's mother.

I cannot do a comparison for you - but we are using this grill and find that it performs as stated in the ads; warms quickly and cooks perfectly. It is so sturdy and well made that we are well pleased with our purchase. No buyers remorse here. Hope this helps you. ELF

I know nothing about the other models, but I'm happy with my little Weber. It is quite well constructed, just like the larger bowl models. My wife and I use it on our open deck.

Pretty much all the overseas grills are made pretty equal. With that, having felt both grills, I would go with a grill with less features. There is less to break and with the elements, generally the fancy features wear down first.
