Is it a good idea to buy used grills?

When purchasing a used or new grill, it is important to consider the condition of the used grill, the type of grill and the needs of the consumer to evaluate if the grill is a good buy, according to Abt.

Condition is the number one consideration as to whether a used grill is a good value. To be a good buy, the grill must be in good working condition, have solid or replaceable grill grates, have minimal weathering, and must fit the needs of the consumer regarding size and fuel type. Other considerations include materials, maintenance requirements and manufacturer support.
