Shopping for BBQ Display Units Online

22.04.2024

Looking for a bargain when it comes to getting a new BBQ? Why not consider a display unit?

Display units are barbecues that have never been used before, but have been on display at a store before being returned to the warehouse. We usually sell these at discounted prices at our warehouse sale, but if you’ve missed our warehouse sale, no sweat! You can still get them at our store online!

The usual reasons for the BBQs being returned can be because a dealer has decided to change the display unit to a different bbq at their store, or the store might have downsized or closed its doors. Sometimes, the store might feel that the display unit has been on the floor for too long, and they want a newer unit for display purposes because their current unit has aesthetic defects from being handled too often. Whatever the reason, the display unit will function just as well as a brand new unit would.

The BBQ Grill Store has a section dedicated to shopping for display units online – here are some tips on what to look out for:
1. Not for the Fussy Buyer
If you know you’re particular, especially about the way a product looks, then getting a display unit might not be for you. These BBQs may not have any functional issues, but they will most likely have aesthetic defects. These defects can range anywhere for small dents to large scratches. Scroll through the pictures on the product page to see the condition of the BBQ – but remember, the camera cannot capture all the defects so if you want a closer look, arrange for an appointment to visit the showroom. Having said that, if you’re not a fussy buyer, then these BBQs can be a real steal because everything works fine and they’re still covered under the same warranty as a new BBQ would be.

2. Items Sold Separately
While all gas BBQs sold on The BBQ Grill Store will come with a gas hose and regulator suitable for a 12.7kg Esso or 9kg Sun Gas LPG Tank, it’s not necessarily so that they will all come with covers and other accessories such as griddles and rotisseries. Always check the specifications section to see what the BBQ comes with. Usually, if these items are not sold with the BBQ, you can put them in your cart by selecting them on the same page as the BBQ you’re looking to get.

3. No Assembly Required
The good thing about a display unit is that they come already  assembled. There’s usually an assembly fee for our smaller BBQs such as the kettles or the TravelQ series. However, you can skip this fee for a display unit since they were already assembled for the store they were at before.

4. Disclaimer Alert
It’s important to read all disclaimers beforehand. Sometimes a bbq might require special care. For example, the Napoleon PRO285E is an electric BBQ that needs to be plugged directly into a wall socket. Due to it’s high power usage, it cannot be used with an extension cord or this might cause the thermostat to fail.
