Product Description
Grilling has never been easier with the Coleman® RoadTrip® LXE portable grill. It's built with wheels and a fold-up stand for easy set-up, take-down and portability.

Amazon.com Review
Take the convenience, efficiency, and versatility of the household barbecue grill on the road this summer with the clever Roadtrip Grill LXE from Coleman. Whereas other portable liquid propane grills are petite and tabletop in design, the Roadtrip LXE is a full-size grill with collapsible scissor legs for countertops or travel. This 36-inch grill features 285 square inches of cooking space, ideal for toting to the beach or just into the driveway a small block party. Two 10,000 BTU burners cook meats evenly. Independent control knobs allow users to adjust temperatures on either burner for flexibility.

The grill comes equipped with two warp-resistant cast-iron grill grates, coated in porcelain for cleaning convenience. Two side tables attach to the grill's sides for extra preparation space and store neatly under the grill. A grease tray catches drippings, sliding out for cleaning. The grill is outfitted with an Instastart electronic ignition. The grill affixes to a standard 16.4-ounce disposable propane cylinder, or can be hooked up to a 20-pound tank with an additional accessory purchase. Burning on high with a propane cylinder, the grill operates for 2.1 hours, while low settings allow operation for up to 4.5 hours. A heavy-duty vitreous lid cased in painted steel contains flames to reduce hazard while barring access to bugs and debris. The collapsible legs feature two wheels on one end and a wide handle on the other for towing. To clean the cooking surface, use mild detergents and avoid steel wool. Coleman offers several interchangeable Roadtrip cooking surfaces, including a stovetop and griddle, for separate purchase. This grill requires assembly. Coleman offers a limited five-year warranty for this item. Collapsed, the grill measures 36 by 22 by 13 inches with a shipping weight of 60 pounds. Propane is not included. --Jessica Reuling

5 out of 5 stars One hot grill   August 27, 2010
R. Svienty
This grill gets very hot and burns for a long time on a small canister of propane. Far exceeds expectations. Con is that you can't move it while its standing or it will collapse and its pretty big - which you don't realize until your packing your car for a camping trip. But performance is outstanding.


4 out of 5 stars My notes after reading all of the reviews   August 25, 2010
Bobbie Hayes (Eureka, CA USA)
I've had my grill for about a month now and have used it 2-3 times each week. I'm happy with it overall. I cook for one and it is easy to use. A couple things I was surprised about when I got the grill. I was expecting a burner that was U-shaped. Instead, it is two round burners. That's not a problem just unexpected. Yes, I bought the grate for using pots on the grill but I hadn't put it together that it would be round burners. Also, because the pictures aren't big, I didn't realize that the meat drips onto a stainless steel area that doesn't come out. I had expected more of a removable fixture. Foil will work if you are compulsive. As mentioned before, the grilling grates have a 5" diameter solid spot with about 4" of grate around it. Not bad, just something you get used to.

If I had been looking for a barbecue grill and no other use, I wouldn't have purchased it. But I love it's flexibility. It's great for camping too. I don't have to bring a stove because this takes the place of a two burner stove in the morning and a grill in the evening (or half and half ) in the evening. It's easy to use (no melting problems that I've heard about) and I thought I'd have to get a big tank of gas for it. I've been getting a lot of use out of those little bottles. And my only "problem" is that I hate cleanup. The grates all go in the dishwasher (great). But the stainless steel bottom just isn't so shiny anymore. I don't really care. All in all, it's really a multi-use item. I've recommended it to friends who are looking for that. And I glad I made the purchase.

I love this grill the only problems for me were the wheels. I had to replace them with more sturdy wheels because the other ones bent in (hollow plastic).


5 out of 5 stars Great Unit!   August 11, 2010

I heard about this product from a friend, I did a lot of research on this unit. I followed all of the advice about what to do and what not to do with this grille and it worked to my expectations and beyond. I used the grille on high (lid open) and I used it on low to medium with the lid closed and cooked an entire camper menu on this unit.
The griddle and stove grates are real great extra attachments and allow you to cook just about anything. My wife and I hope to never turn the stove on in the camper again.
As far as grilling on this unit, it is a little different because the heat is so close to the grill but after you use it a little you realize that it will do a great job but if you don't walk away from it when you're grilling anything. I was kind of caught off guard when I cooked some fresh steaks on it after it was warmed up. I was going for med rare and to my surprise, they were cooked to medium well in minutes.
As far a cleaning, I have not cleaned the grills but if you are using it on a daily basis, be sure to wipe the bottom of the grill out daily and It will stay reasonably clean under there.

As far as being able to hook it to your RV (low pressure), I purchased a 1/4" female npt x 1/8" male npt (parker brand) brass adapter. I threaded the ¼" female onto my (changeover from inverted flare to ¼"npt) I took apart the regulator that comes with the unit (unthreaded the brass piece that threads into the grille from the regulator) I placed a generous amount of thread tape on the male 1/8" parker brass fitting and threaded it into the brass piece that I removed from the regulator.
I had treaded this unit together a few times prior (dry) also and I was not sure if the threads were a perfect fit but good enough for a low pressure application, I would recommend that this is a one time or permanent application for this brass connection. I would also recommend that if you still want to use the small propane cylinders on the grill that you purchase an additional regulator (they are very reasonable in price around the $15 -$20 (US funds)
If you're unsure about the quality of this connection you can take some dish soap and water and spray it on the connection and watch for a leak. (I had a good fit)
You can now connect your hose to the grille and then to your RV (low pressure connection). This removes the hassle of removing your cover off of your RV LPG tanks and connecting directly to them through the regulator that is supplied with the unit.
I have a Jayco 32 BHDS and it has an (air chuck) style connection around the mid point of the trailer, I just connect the grille to that and fire it up.



1 out of 5 stars Nice grill - with impossible to clean grates   August 3, 2010
Arlen Fletcher (Denver, Colorado United States)
I purchased the Coleman Road Trip Grill about 1 month ago, brought it home, did the 30-minute 'seasoning' of the grates as recommended in the manual, sprayed some Pam on them and cooked a couple of burgers. So far, so good. Then it came time to clean the grates.

The grates appear to be porcelain-covered steel which, on first impression, would appear to be easy to clean. Not so. I tried wiping them off with a damp cloth immediately after taking the food off the grill - and that didn't work. I tried soaking them in soapy water overnight - still didn't work. I scrubbed them with a plastic scouring pad (not an abrasive pad) - and that didn't work. In fact, the first set was so impossible to clean I ended up calling Coleman thinking the grates were somehow defective. To their credit, Coleman sent out a new set of grates immediately. The new grates were very shiny - and I had hope that they'd clean up much easier than the somewhat dull originals that came with the grill - but it was not to be. Same problem - impossible to get clean.

I can't recall when I've been so disappointed with a product. I plan to sell my grill on Craig's list and find something that's easier to care for.
