Do the grates have a section that you cab lift to add charcoal?

Yes. The top grate folds up at about the halfway point of the circumference. The bottom grate folds up at about the quarter point of the circumference. Note that the grates are attached to each other. I haven't had any trouble getting the large lump coal in this way.

First, I love this thing. If you purchase, go to youtube and subscribe to all the good smoker/BBQ sites. To answer your question, yes it does, however, when I have both grates on top of each other I don't like the way the top and bottom hinged sections line up to reach charcoal.

It does but from my experience you most often will have it covered with food so it's just easier to remove the entire cooking grate.

Yes, one section of the grate is on a hinge and can be opened to reach the charcoal.

It does...after taking the chimney extension off, the grate rests on top of the round base. The grate is fairly sturdy, but not the same as a Weber grill. Big enough for 4 burgers or a couple of steaks. I have not tried using the grate yet.

No. It does not. However, it is a very good grate. We've used this brand before and liked them, and this size is also very sturdy and well built. Rather than send it back, I borrowed a drill and large bit, and made nickle-sized holes in the back panel. We flew our cats internationally in these crates and this alternation was acceptable.

No it does not. There are no grates. Just the sink and mounting parts and template. Love the sink!

After the charcoal is ready you can move the baskets to the sides under the swing-up cooking grates. Then you can add more charcoal as you cook. That works great if you want to do some indirect cooking in the middle. You can start the charcoal directly on the grate without the baskets as well.

No, this smoker is in three sections, the bottom, the lid, and the center section with the cooking racks. Once it's set up and the charcoal is lit only the lid needs to be removed to check / remove whatever you're cooking.

No hinged grate. The outside bottom is an awkward clip-on, and the charcoal grate inside just lifts out.

Yes, it does include two grates. Highly recommend using Amazon Prime for shipping on these as they are very heavy and some places (not Amazon) charge an over-inflated shipping and handling fee.

No. You need to remove the grate for adding wood. This is much larger than either of those stoves. I use it for cooking with my 8 quart dutch oven. It is a BBQ not a stove.

I believe you are referring to the edges near the handles. Yes they are hinged so that you can add more charcoal or smoking wood. I purchased a cast iron cooking grate as a replacement. The cast iron is significantly superior to the plated steel that comes with the Weber, but the hinged areas are nice to have. SO yes it has the hinged areas, but you may want to investigate a cast iron alternative. The one that I purchased has a removable center portion that has a number of alternate attachments. One of which is a cast iron smoke box. Just sayin.

You add wood or charcoal by lifting the removable cooking grill off the top. High quality grill too.

No. It does have two dedicated charcoal baskets so you can adjust heat by only using one.

No, it does not. The main grill unit is assembled but the base and side shelves are not.

Yes, and they have held up better than the factory grates. Just don't buy the cast iron burner that Music City has. It did not last long at all...

The large area (smoker area) does not have a grate to hold coals. It would be quite easy to add. I only use mine for smoking. I made a few mods and it works great. Would be happy to detail the mods if you would like.

Yes, it comes with the grill grate and can be used with or without it. I used it yesterday at a SuperBowl party. Its great.
