My AKORK grill so frequently- I replaced the Grate. Replaced my AKORN Outer cooking grate. The original one was “cooked to Death”.
New one is ready for grilling season!

They charge you right away yet you wait months. paid for it months ago, don't have it. Grill is useless

Disappointed in Product and Service. The grate i received was cracked in multiple places. I emailed the company about my situation and i didn't hear back from them. Very disappointed in the service.

Really disappointed in customer service. Received broken. Sent emails and pics. Zero reply from company. Zip. Poor packaging. Nobody seems to care after they take your money.

AKORN® Outer Cooking Grate. It was broken into numerous pieces when I received it. I have tried to reach customer service by phone with no luck. I tried sending numerous emails and received no response.
★★★★★ John2024 March 13, 2024
Perfect replacement for grate. Would buy again. Very easy to install.
★★★★★ D Pit master March 9, 2024 · Texas BBQ capital of the United States
Not bad. I recently ordered two replacement grates. One arrived in perfect shape, the other arrived in pieces. The packaging was not sufficient to protect the cast iron grate. And I’m not sure on the quality of the cast iron used, needs to be tempered to a better hardness. The upside is the excellent customer service. I sent an email and picture and was sent a replacement quickly. Thanks char griller

Arrived Shattered - Customer Service Non Responsiv. Arrived with one other item. I looked at it real quick but did not take it out of the box until a couple of weeks later. When I pulled it out of the box, I found a third of the grate had shattered. To speed the process, I ordered another one then sent an email with a photo to the Customer Service link. There is no phone number.
I never got a response. Not a text, not an email, not a phone call. Nothing. So I eventually got my replacement but got no relief at all for the broken grate. Never heard anything from the company.
The grill is good, but I can't recommend it due to the performance and lack of follow up from the company. I've purchased my last item from them.
BUY ELSEWHERE!!!
★★★★★ Lumberjack September 4, 2023 · Montgomery Ala
Best grille ever. I bought this grille 3 1/2 years ago. It is the best grille I have ever had . I will never buy another one. This works better than the big green egg. You can also buy parts to repair it. Right now I need the outer cooking grate . I broke it by accident
It is out of stock , I can still use grille until it become available.

Akron Cast iron grill. Original quality, looks the same as the one I am replacing. Comes packaged well.
Going to buy another one for my Vision grill as the cast iron is better than the one it comes with. I also have the Akron Junior, great for travel.

★★★★★ Brian September 14, 2022 · Undisclosed
Very brittle, will break at some point. These are so brittle that I'm now on my third one. One of them broke into 4 pieces after sliding out of the box and falling about 6 inches onto carpet. They hold heat well and fit the grill nicely but count on it breaking at some point. These are temporary grates and not meant to last.
★★★★★ Carroll August 29, 2022 · Undisclosed
Fits perfect, very sturdy. Much better than the expanded metal rack I had been using
★★★★★ Chris August 23, 2022 · Undisclosed
Necessary piece. Unfortunately a neccessary replacement as the grid will fail over time (cracks/breaks).
★★★★★ Dean August 13, 2022 · Undisclosed
I recommend this item to everyone! I like everything about my grill! Once you learn how to regulate and set your temperature, you can cook/ grill about anything. I smoked a 22 pound Turkey and it came out delicious!

Replaceable Parts! I haven't used this replacement item yet but I am sure it preforms as admirably as the original. Being able to replace parts was one of the main reason I chose to go with Char-Griller and it was a good decision.
★★★★★ Jeff April 27, 2022 · Undisclosed
They work great and fit well. The inner and outer cooking grates arrived in about 1 week after ordering. They work just fine and fit my grill of 7 years. My old grates rusted out from so much use of twice a week, over a 7 year period. Would recommend using Akorn product to everyone

Fits like the original and just as sturdy. Fits like it should and just as sturdy as the cook grate that originally came with my grill many years ago.

Grate replacement. fit perfectly, however it was noticeably slimmer than the original grate. I don't see it as a huge issue unless you have an older middle section which will look a couple mm taller.
★★★★★ Chason March 28, 2022 · Undisclosed
Perfect Fit-Worth every penny. I received the grate well wrapped to protect it. I coated the entire grate on both sides with Avocado Oil as it has a higher flash point (to 400 degrees) without affecting flavor & BBQ'ed two days later when the weather permitted. There was very little sticking even with fresh ground meat. The cleanup was easy, as well. Recoated after cleaning. Ready to BBQ again. Where I see people making mistakes and blaming it on the grates is when they use oils that don't have high enough flash point or use improper cleaning methods like trying to hose off the grate with water vs using elbow grease and brushes, which all will cause issues down the road. Happy grilling!
★★★★★ Clarence January 4, 2022 · Undisclosed
Available. Availability is a positive. Took a while to deliver but I did receive updates from the company about the delays. Most people understand during the pandemic parts were hard to come by and I was one of them. Glad they did get the parts in and that the part was ultimately available.

Wish these grates were more durable! Ordered because the original broke. This one fell 6" while I was seasoning it, and it broke also. I just today ordered another of this same grate to replace the one that I just received...

Great Product and UPS Sucks. Akorn grill is the best grill I've owned for over 45 years. Needed to replace the grate, center grate and warming rack. The originals were worn out from use. I highly recommend the product, bu not the shipping. They use UPS and they delivered 3 days after the UPS promised date. Not Chargiller's fault, but UPS sucks. I'd prefer using the post office.

A very happy customer. I was given a Akorn grill that was used. It needed a new grill grate so I looked them up. Everywhere that I found one was priced extremely high so I checked on Char Griller and their price was half of anybody else. Factory part, perfect fit, great price, and was delivered very quickly = a customer for life. I won't even look anywhere else for my grilling products or grill parts again.
★★★★★ Deegeejay May 19, 2021 · Nashville, TN
I'm so pleased! I've been looking for the replacement grate every since I purchased this grill years ago. It fell an broke on delivery so I've been wanting a replacement for years! I was worried the UPS shipping would take forever but this arrived in a couple of days. It is perfect.
★★★★★ Roger May 6, 2021 · Undisclosed
Original product replacement. Great Fit! Great replacement for the original I've had for five years. Perfect fit, but they were out of the middle piece. Not sure why the manufacturer would sell the units separately. But I will update this when/if the unit comes off backorder and I get mine.
★★★★★ Michael May 6, 2021 · Undisclosed

Wouldn't have anything else. I got this replacement because I totally used my original to the point of failure. I will continue to buy from Chargriller since this grill id by far, the BEST I have ever had. I have had $1000.00 gas grills and many others of all types. This grill, and this grate, allow me to cook a ribeye or New York Strip in such a way that I don't even want to go to a restaurant. I'm hooked on Chargriller for life.

One of the benefits of Acorn. What I like best about Acorn is you can buy things like a new grate, this is our third. Currently seasoning the new one with vegetable oil. With care these cast iron pieces do last a long time but moisture is not your friend. All replacement parts to date have fit and are easy to install

Great products. Replaced cooking grate after three years of heavy use on Akorn grill. By accident I have ruined two thermometers getting grill tools hot. Wrapped the pointers and turned all residue in grill to ash. Good way to clean grill just probably not good for grill. But the grill is holding up. Thank goodness I did not have a ceramic grill, I feel sure it would be in pieces at five times the price.

Cracked after 3 uses, rusts quickly. Third time using this replacement grate, it cracked in 3 places. Cannot recommend buying this to anyone. I have liked my grill, but any moisture at all and it rusts very badly, original grate lasted 2 years before completely failing. This one has started failing immediately.
★★★★★ Johnsonville Brats August 13, 2020 · Texas
Rusted out quickly, even though the grill was covered. Love my Akorn smoker, can't stand the grill. The original part snapped in half after a minor fall. The replacement rusted out completely within a year and will not clean up even with an overnight soak in vinegar. I'm now faced with a dilemma: move on from a smoker I love? Or try to find a better replacement part that won't rust out immediately?
★★★★★ M August 8, 2020 · Eugene, OR
Too brittle? I see via the comments that these grates break. Like mine. I'm pretty frustrated that I can't find this product in stores or Char-Grillers amazon store. I do not want to drop an extra $14 in shipping on top of the $25 for the actual part that broke when it fell onto the grass. Literally broke on grass. Char-Griller...what say you? $40 for parts and shipping for a brittle grate seems exorbitant to me.
