from Covina, CA. on 5/12/2008
The light works exactly like I expected it to.

this light mounts on handle much better ths flex mounts.you have light right down of grill not from an angle

I bought this as a birthday gift for my father who grills year round...at all times of day and night. When it is dark outside, he often recruits another family member to hold a flashlight while he is grilling so that he can see. All agree, this was a great gift.
from Cocoa Beach, FL on 4/24/2008
Our condo is on the beach and we have lighting restrictions, this light works perfectly so that I can continue to grill in the evening.
from New York on 4/14/2008
I have used this grill light many times this spring, and it works wonderfully. Not only does it fit perfectly on our grill (I can't see it not fitting great on any grill with a handle because of its' universal mounting), but it also gives off adequate amount of light for night BBQing. The light is not as strong as some other 'spot-light' grill lights, but this one stores nicely in place under your grill's vinyl cover, where the others you have to remove the light to store. I am very happy with my purchase - it has made BBQing on my low-lit patio a lot easier!
from Marietta, GA on 4/9/2008
The unit is heavy, and it may just be the way our grill lid is shaped, but it's a little tricky to screw it on the lid tight enough to keep it on securely. Once it's on, it works great!
from Dalton, MA on 3/28/2008
This was recommended by my daughter whose boyfriend's brother and father have one. They both love theirs. My husband said he didn't need anything for his birthday so it was challenge finding something for him. He loves it. He's already using it on the barbecue at home and we plan to bring it with us this summer and use it with our camping barbecue.
from Rapid City, SD on 3/14/2008
Easy to instal, bright light, best feature is it will turn off after certain amount of time in case you forget. No reason now not to get those steaks done just right if grilling in the evening hours.
from Illinois on 3/12/2008
We don't have an outlet close to our grill so this is great and lets us grill when it's dark.
from North Carolina on 3/8/2008
It works well! Thumbs up!
from Modesto, CA on 3/7/2008
We put our grill light on our grill. We thought it might be difficult to attach, but it fits pretty much anything. When it gets dark early, it is great for grilling at night. My husband used to point a flashlight at the grill. This of course, works tons better!
from Oklahoma City, OK on 3/4/2008
Definitely made grilling in the winter easier.
from Federal Way, WA on 3/2/2008
Can BBQ during fall and winter in the dark and not burn or overcook the food.
from Chicago on 2/29/2008
Great product
from Lake Tahoe, NV on 2/22/2008
This grill light works great. Fits oversized handle on our grill perfectly. Makes grilling at night a breeze.
from OK on 2/17/2008
This was a gift I purchased for my husband. It does not obstruct the grill lid handle and the adjustable light is light years ahead of the portable lantern he'd been using. He's now able to BBQ outside now in the dark of night and dead of winter (if he wants) and doesn't have to try to hold a lantern at the same time he's cooking.
Only thing not great was that you do have to remember to cover it in inclement weather. My husband left his out permanently uncovered. Not a good idea otherwise I am sure it would still be working after 1 1/2 years.
from MN on 2/6/2008
I bought this for my husband for Christmas. The first try was a HUGE success! Grilling after work, it's dark and was impossible to see the meat - now he raves about being able to see and is much more enthused to grill. I've not gone through an entire year yet to know it's durability and that is the only reason I did not give it a 5 star - so not quite fair to the product, but wanted to be fair to those reviewing to purchase. It's been well worth the purchase for seeing the food on the grill!!! I would highly recommend it!
from South Carolina on 1/31/2008
Wow! This Light is Awesome!!! We are VERY delighted with this product!!! We would recommend it to everyone!!
from Ft. Lauderdale, FL on 1/28/2008
Great product. Easy to install and use. Helps see when grilling at night.
from Asheville, NC on 1/26/2008
We use this at our lake house where there is poor lighting on the patio. It has been wonderful!
from Atlanta GA on 1/26/2008
Grill cover doesn't fit over it
from Nashua NH on 1/25/2008
Reliable and easy to use.Nice and sturdy. Makes grilling in the dark so much easier then using a flashlight...
from Woodland Hills,CA on 1/25/2008
Gives some much needed light when it starts getting dark
from St. Louis, MO on 1/25/2008
This was a gift for someone else and they have tossed the flashlight aside and are cooking out even more since light isn't an issue now. It was easy to mount and they like that it can stay on the grill. The light is very bright and sturdy.
from Alexandria, VA on 1/21/2008
When I spend [$] on a tool at any store I expect it to work. This one is junk. Heat makes it stop working -- and it's a GRILL LIGHT! I can't believe they sell this. It's fine when you start, but by the time you need it to see anything, it's not working.
from Houston, TX on 1/21/2008
The light is not as bright as we hoped for.
from Illinois on 1/20/2008
Effectively lights up the grill surface and side burner and work area. Brighter than Weber light. I wish it had the mercury switch that the Weber has - which turns it on when the lid is raised and off when closed, but the timer function works well.
Not sure if it can stay on the grill in inclement weather because the instructions don't say. I guess I'll find out. So far, so good.
from Cincinnati, OH on 1/19/2008
This is perfect for our grilling location--a back patio that is not well lit. We are grillers throughout the year-so in the winter this light helps with the short days of sunlight!
from San Rafael on 1/18/2008
It makes it much easier to see what you are cooking.
from PA on 1/18/2008
I enjoy using the grill all season and it helps to see as the nights get earlier.

This thing is one of the best things that i have used for grilling. No more carrying the flashlight around. It's very bright. It gives off light to my entire patio. This is a must for any griller.
from Glen Carbon, IL on 1/16/2008
Think this is a great idea. We cook out a lot when it is dark. It just didn't fit our grill. It would have to attach to the handle which would make it hard to lift our heavy lid.
from Denver, Colorado on 1/15/2008
Perfect Christmas gift for me, Excellent grill light
from Port Orchard, WA on 1/14/2008
We live in a RV and grill quite often. One frustrating thing is grilling at night without any lights on (which draw bugs). This product has made it a breeze to grill and get your food just right.
This was a gift to my husband, and it is one he is using!
from Oswego N.Y. on 1/14/2008
Easy to get going. Can be placed to give you light where you need it. Also could be used for other applications.
from Weatherford, TX on 1/13/2008
These were gifts and the fellows like it real well. Places light directly on grill.
from McKinney, TX on 1/13/2008
Easy to use. Easy to attach.
from CA soon to be OK on 1/13/2008
I gave this to my finace who grills on the patio which is not so well lit. This really helped him to see what he was doing out there.
from Gulf Shores, AL on 1/13/2008
Perfect - neat design!
from Fort Mitchell, Ky on 1/12/2008
Made for a great gift. Helped a friend who had no lighting on his deck be able to use his grill in the winter and not over or under cook his food.
from Northern Virginia on 1/12/2008
One of the challenges to grilling year round is grilling in the dark in the winter months. Short of installing a floodlight that will still cast large shadows, you have the choice of "trusting the force" in the dark or getting this grill light. It's bright and gives you a close to daylight coloration of what you're cooking. The neatest thing is that the light turns itself off after awhile if you forget to do so yourself. I haven't had to clean it yet, but it looks like it will be easy. Make sure you've got a good sized handle for it to fit on, but if you have that, its unobtrusive while staying very useful. I hope it lasts!
from Merrimack, NH on 1/11/2008
Useful when trying to grill in the dark
from Agoura HIlls, Ca. on 1/11/2008
We use the product on the grill on our patio. It makes grilling later in the day (evening) much easier.
from Rockville Centre, NY on 1/11/2008
I have purchased several grill light attachments in the past and they have all proved problematic. This, however, is GREAT. It attached easily to the grill handle and lights the entire surface of the grill rack. Don't hesitate to order it.
from Phoenix, Az on 1/11/2008
This is a great grill light. I gave it to my dad as a present a few years back. When it wore out, he asked for another one. It is very easy to attach to the grill and makes everything easy to see.
from Suffolk, VA on 1/9/2008
It secures easily to the grill, heavy duty so it doesn't feel like it is going to break any time soon. Is useful in many other places too.
I also bought one for my best friend and she can't stop thanking me for getting it for her.
from Rochester, NY on 1/8/2008
This was a gift - I gave one to my Dad and one to my husband. My dad opened his first and my husband was immediately jealous. They are both excited to use the light.
from Houma, LA on 1/7/2008
use my grill light at least twice a week year round south Louisiana. timer on light is most useful feature. illumination great.had 2 lights fail in as many years. i keep it mounted on the grill and the grill covered but still the thing won't make through an entire year.[...]
from Colorado Springs, CO on 1/7/2008
Easy to put on the grill. Grilling in the dark is fun again.
from haverford, pa on 1/7/2008
Easy on and off
from Rockton, Il on 1/7/2008
Works wonderful in the winter time when it is dark late. My husband did not think it would work well, ha, he loves it and says that it really is helpful
from Texas on 1/6/2008
We love being able to grill at night!!! Especially now that it's dark by the time we get home from work!
from Peoria,IL on 1/6/2008
I bought this for my husband for Christmas and he loves it!
from Atlanta, GA on 1/6/2008
I was so tired of trying to hold a flashlight under my chin while checking degree of doneness of steaks. If I had been meant to perform balancing acts I would have joined the circus. This grill light was the perfect answer for me.
from Phialdelphia, PA on 1/5/2008
I gave this grill light as a Christmas gift. My nephew was delighted as he lives in NC and grills year round. This enables him to grill after 5 PM in the winter months.
from Plainfield, NJ on 1/5/2008
Are you one of those people that fret the Winter months because you have to put your outdoor grill away? Well, this wonderful Brookstone Handle Mount Grill Light ("Grill Light") will give you the opportunity to grill all year round - especially during the Winter when the sun sets so early. This Grill Light pops right onto the handle of your gas grill; and it illuminates not only the grill, but the surrounding area as well. We love our Grill Light. It truly makes grilling outside a pleasure. Our guests are as impressed as we are with the Grill Light and now they want one. So, either go to your nearby "Brookstone" store or order it on the web @ www.Brookstone.com. You'll be happy that you did! Sincerely, A Satisfied Griller - KittyCat25
from Bay Shore, NY on 1/5/2008
I had wanted to do an electrical light installation to brighten up my BBQ cooking grill. Due t where my BBQ is located that would of been quite a task. This grill light was the answer for me. I am so glad I came across it at Brookstone.
from Atlanta, GA on 1/5/2008
The Light itself works very good, has a nice light. The only disadvantages I found was that the casing looked like it might have warped a bit with use and my grill handle had me ratcheting up and down when I closed it. It does help at night in the dark corner of the patio to see the meat-
from BEEVILLE, TX on 1/5/2008
VERY NICE - THIS WAS A GIFT TO AN AVID GRILLER AND IT WAS VERY WELL LIKED
from Silver Spring MD on 1/5/2008
Makes grilling a 24 hour a day activity.
from dayton, ohio on 1/5/2008
who needs to stop grilling at night just because the sun has gone down? with this handy light, grilling is a breeze!
from Maryland on 1/4/2008
No more cooking in the dark!
from Napa on 1/4/2008
this is our second attempt at a grill light. The last one we had melted after one use. This one is great, even at over 500 degrees. Great purchase.
from IL on 1/4/2008
Only used it once, but really like it. No more flash lights. Will order another for a gift.
from Naples, FL on 1/4/2008
Since it gets so dark early in the winter, this is a great product for evening grilling.
from Cataldo, ID on 1/4/2008
Got this little gem for my husband this Christmas, and it was his favorite gift! Makes BBQing in the dark a whole lot more convenient. Thanks for the great product!
from Fargo, ND on 1/4/2008
Love the timer light on it, don't have to worry about leaving it on. Very easy to attach to grill handle. Good, solid construction with nice, bright light
from Little Compton, RI on 1/4/2008
This light can be adjusted to just the right angle to allow the griller to see if the food is ready to serve. Also allows the grill to be seen for night time cleanup!
from Columbia, SC on 1/4/2008
We have inadequate lighting around our grill-this light attaches to the grill handle and allows us to see how our items are progressing while we cook after dark!
from Castle Hayne, NC on 1/4/2008
this is the greatest gift to give or receive. Bright light for your bbq. should have been invented years ago. makes grilling even more of a pleasure.
