Does this have a folding grill like the premium version

Yes it does. The only thing the Platinum has over the Gold is the Electronic Touch-N-Go™ gas ignition system. Reviews on that system are pretty mixed and the price premium isn't worth it to me. The Gold is definitely the best deal. Just use a starter chimney and you'll be fine. Happy grilling!

I would say that the back of the grill is half open. The bottom part comes up maybe 10 inches, but then open on the top. It does not move- this way you can get the gas tank in the back, etc. Yes- the side trays fold down flush with the sides of the grill.

I think it did come with a small cookbook. It has been awhile so I don't recall for sure. This grill is not much different than a regular grill you would use outside. Most of the time you can tell by looking or cutting into something to see if it is done to your specifications.

This model does NOT include a cover. The smaller version of this grill does include a cover. I ordered a Duck Cover and it is fantastic.

Hi Beth, No it does not. But it is not that hard to put together. Everything fit and lined up correctly. It is a great grill.Dave

Yes it does with a cover. This is the second electric grill I have owned and I like it. My first grill had a little more power but this one is still good. It has a lot of parts and takes a good while to put together but you end up with a good product.

The back of the grill is open, but there is a framework in place. The side trays do fold down.

No, it does not, but you can simply stagger when you put certain foods on the grill in relation to one another. Works fine for me grilling meat and veggies.

No. This unit has open grill on the bottom to release heat generated in use.......Seriously, don't waste money on it. The quality is NG. I bought two and they are all dead in 5 weeks with light use only.

no it does not, but I took it to a machine shop and they made it smaller so now it fits perfect. sure does cook great - all my friends ask me how I got a cast iron grill as opposed to the metal that comes with the 18" weber - no comparison. good luck.

No. Cover was extra. Love the grill. Cover nice but strong wind can blow it off. May need minimal modification if in windy area.

No they do not, which is why I bought the Super Champ. I had the older modle and loveed it, switched to the larger grill with the removeable grill plates and was extremely disappoint because the grill with the removable plates it not get nearly as hot, did not sear the outside of meat, took longer to cook and it was almost impossible to prepare a rair steak. The grill plates are relatively easy to clean, put a wet paper towel between the plates when you close it and let it cool. MHL

Yes, it comes folded. You open it to use and can collapse it when done. Enjoy

Yes and no. It depends on who you purchase it from. I received one with a canvas tote that attached under the fold up seat. I actually like it better than the basket, but wish I had known prior to buying. Otherwise the unit looks exactly the same as the one pictured.

No it does not. I don't remember if it has handles though when it folds in half.

Yes, the handle has a button on the top that allows you to fold the handle in. This really makes it safe while cooking so it does not get bumped.
