Versatile, small learning curve

This hybrid is a beast. I love switching between gas for quick weeknight dinners and charcoal or wood for real smoke flavor on the weekend. The infrared burner sears steaks really well, though it took me a couple tries to get the timing right.

Rosa G.★★★☆☆June 1, 2010
Good features, pricey

Build quality on the 30 inch is solid, like I expected from Sunstone. Lots of cooking options with gas, charcoal and infrared. My gripe is the price. For nearly $4000 I expected the controls to be a little easier to figure out, but it cooks well once you get the hang of it.

Joy N.★★★★☆May 22, 2025
Great for entertaining

I'm big into BBQ and this grill delivers. Being able to use charcoal and wood chips along with the gas burners means I can make everybody happy, and 30 inches is the right size for our family get-togethers.

Jesse★★★★★June 7, 2011
Worth the wait

I wanted a grill like this for years and it's better than I expected. Gas, charcoal, wood and infrared all in one compact grill is a great idea. Slow smoked ribs, seared tuna, it handles it all. It's the centerpiece of my outdoor kitchen now.

Gerald W.★★★★☆March 5, 2024
Solid, easy to install

I'm a contractor and have put in a few Sunstone products. This 30 inch hybrid was easy to fit into a custom island like the others. My client loves having gas and charcoal, and the infrared burner is nice for a quick sear. Reliable, good quality grill.

Questions & answers

5 questions answered

Q
Can this grill run on natural gas, or is it propane only? I have natural gas.Asked by Sunstone Support Team
A
It usually comes set up for propane, but it can be converted to natural gas with an optional conversion kit. You'd buy the kit separately and have a certified gas tech install it so it runs safely.

Q
With the charcoal and wood side, how do I clean out the ash and grease?Asked by Sunstone Support Team
A
After each use, let the grill cool, then take out the cooking grates and ash tray and dump the charcoal and wood ash. For grease, use a good grill cleaner on the stainless and a brass brush on the grates. Cleaning it regularly keeps buildup down and keeps it looking good.

Q
I'm planning a new outdoor kitchen. How hard is this grill to build into a custom island?Asked by Sunstone Support Team
A
It's made to be built in. It needs a cutout of about 28-3/4" W x 10-1/4" H x 23-1/2" D, and you'll need gas plus an electrical connection for the infrared burner and igniter. We recommend a pro handle the gas and electrical so it's safe and up to code.

Q
What's the warranty on this grill? It's a big purchase and I want to be covered.Asked by Sunstone Support Team
A
Coverage details are on our warranty page. Register the grill when you buy it, and if anything comes up, contact us with your order number.

Q
What's this grill made of? I'm near the coast, so corrosion is a big worry.Asked by Sunstone Support Team
A
It's commercial-grade 304 stainless steel, which resists rust and corrosion really well, so it's a great pick near the coast. It's heavy duty and built to last and keep cooking well even in tough outdoor conditions.
