When I started my Z Grills reviews, I had no problem finding all the information I needed. One reason is that Z Grills are becoming very popular.
Z-Grills Reward Crowdfunding – My Review
The thing that stood out the most to me was the Z-Grills buy one, get 10 free grills promotion for 50 years.
I found out how this works after digging deeper into this amazing deal.
This is what happens after you join the Z-Grills reward crowdfunding.
1: You buy your first Z Grill and pay $777.00 for this.
2: Every 5 years, you receive a new Z-grill.
3: All you pay is a $100 shipping fee.
There is also the option to pick it up for free.
After you order your first grill, it will be delivered in about 3 – 7 business days. I also found that this is not some discounted model but a Zgrill with all the features with the same quality as all other models.
This Z-Grills crowdfunding program will not be available forever. So, if you need a pellet grill and have not decided yet, I can only give you a heads up for this program.
Z-Grills In The Crowdfunding Reward Program
There are 4 models to choose from in the Z-Grils buy-1-get-10 program.
- 7002C2E WiFi
- 7003D 2025 upgrade
- 1002B Large
- 700D7 flagship
I understand it is not easy to choose just from the model numbers, so here are the features of the available crowdfunding Zgrills

So, you might wonder if there are any cons to this Z-Grill reward crowdfunding deal.
Here is my answer after contacting Z-Grill.
- No risk of loss:
Even if Z Grills does not expand as expected, customers still receive their initial grill at fair market value. There is no additional cost or downside compared to a standard purchase.
- Early Redemption Option:
If you prefer to receive some of your future grill sooner, you can pay a small additional fee to access your benefits earlier.
- Proven Track Record:
They have successfully executed long-term customer reward programs before.
Their Five-Year Cashback program (2018) refunded customers in full after five years, demonstrating their commitment and financial capability.
- Product Quality Assurance
Z Grills has spent years as an OEM manufacturer for leading American wood pellet grill brands, ensuring that their products meet the highest industry standards.
Features Of The Z-Grills Models
Depending on the model you purchase, it is obvious that there are certain differences, but here are the main features you can find on any Z-grill
Grill Grate Material
What I like is that the grates are made of stainless steel and are enamel-coated for easy cleaning.
In my Zgrill reviews, I found that they all come with:
- Digital controller
- Hopper size from 10 – 20 Lbs
Pros and Cons
The pros and cons I found are not just for one model, but an average of all the models I looked at. Each of the z grills pellet smoker reviews models might show slightly different pros and cons
I will probably do an extended review of one of the Z-grill models on a separate page.Pros
Hopper Cleanout with low pellet level sensor.
- Great quality
- Easy to move around
- Steady temperature
Cons
- Not all models have the pellet cleanout option.
Where To Buy Z Grills
I have found several places where you can buy a Z-grill, such as many big box stores. I recommend 2 places where I experienced great customer service.
This sounds obvious, and the shortest way to order your grill and contact Z-grills customer service in case you need any help.
2: Amazon website
Many people like to buy from Amazon, but it is not my first choice. In case of a problem, it is hard to get someone to help you. I also found that not all models are available there.
My experience is that the Z-Grills website has more deals and discounts available.
Z-Grill Review – My Experience

The mission statement of Z Grills is the following: “We provide high quality pellet grills with honest prices to let everyone enjoy the wood-fired flavor.”
After spending a lot of time doing my Z-grill review, I can only say that they did a good job in delivering that statement.
Besides my own experience, I have read many other Z-grill users’ opinions and have not found many people who were not happy with their purchase.
Z-Grills FAQ
I have found several questions people have about the Z-grills and have done a lot of reading and research in my attempt to answer them.
Q: Where are Z-Grills made?
A: Z-grills are made in China. They are almost an exact clone of the Traeger or Grilla Grills. This also answers the question of whether Z-grills are made in the USA.
Q: How accurate is the thermostat in Z-Grills?
A: The Z Grills thermostat keeps the temperature pretty spot on as long as you don’t open the lid. Since the Z-grill basically has the same electronic parts as many other pellet grills, you can expect the same accuracy as, for instance, a Traeger.
Z- Grills, just like most pellet grills, can have temperature problems. There are upgrades and Z-Grill modifications available to a higher-class thermostat.
Q: Z- Grills versus Traeger.
A: This one is hard to answer. Traeger and Z-grills were made by the same company in the past. However, Traeger is now manufactured in a different plant.
This means, in my opinion, that they should be better compared to the Grilla Grill. What I have read is that they both do pretty well. Traeger just has more brand awareness.
Q: Can you use wood instead of pellets with Z-grills?
A: No, you can not use wood instead of pellets with your Z-grill pellet smoker. The reason is that the auger is designed for pellets that are uniform in size. Wood chunks are not all the same size.
Z-Grills replacement parts availability.
Z-grill spare or replacement parts can be ordered on several websites, including the Z-grill website. Especially now, they are becoming popular because of the affordable price.
