Great bbq however the circular vent on the top of the charcoal lid wasn't a great seal which made in impossible to choke the grill (put out the the charcoal), I mentioned this to customer support who resolved the problem for me, so if you feel that the top vent is too loose then id recommend reaching out to them. The customer support I received was great. Show details
I picked up the Coleman Revolution 4-Burner BBQ about eight months ago, largely because it made sense that a well-known camping brand like Coleman would produce a solid outdoor barbecue. I wanted a reliable, well-built grill that could handle a variety of cooking tasks. The BBQ comes with a standard hotplate, which is pretty common, and I did buy… Read more
an additional hotplate as an accessory to have more flexibility. Assembly was a bit time-consuming since it arrives flat-packed, but the instructions were clear enough and the build quality felt solid once it was all put together.
One of the most notable features is what Coleman calls their “flare-free” design. I’m not sure if “technology” is the perfect term, but the system does reduce flare-ups significantly. It’s pretty satisfying to see the grease drain off into a side cup rather than pooling at the bottom of the grill. This means less cleanup and a more consistent cooking experience.
Overall, I’d say it’s a very capable BBQ that’s well-built and performs reliably. It doesn’t feel like just another grill; it’s got a few smart touches that make it easier to use and maintain. In other words, it does the job well without too much fuss.
Bbq is amazing. Everything i could ask for woth having the dual fuel usage. Coal for that smoke flavour on a weekend. Gas during the week for ease! Modules are greT either side fkr storage space. Assembly was fairly straight forward as well. Would recommend! Show details

I recently purchased the Coleman Revolution 4-Burner BBQ and I’m genuinely impressed. The build quality is outstanding — solid materials, thoughtful engineering, and a design that feels both durable and refined. What truly stands out is the Coleman Flare-Free cooking system. It delivers consistent, controlled heat without flare-ups, making the… Read more
entire cooking experience smoother and more enjoyable.
A close friend recommended the Coleman brand to me, and I’m very glad I took their advice. This BBQ has exceeded my expectations, and I couldn’t be happier with my choice. Highly recommended.
The best Bbq I have ever owned! I have been looking for a charcoal alternative to my old gas Bbq, and I found this Dual fuel a perfect choice, so now I have the option of Charcoal or gas. I have used it every weekend since I purchased it 5 or 6 WEEKS, it's so easy to use and my family has loved every meal that has come off it. I would thoroughly recommend the Coleman Revolution Duel Fuel BBQ !!! Show details

Great BBQ, flexible cooking styles with the option of using either Charcoal and Gas or both at the same time. The highlight for me was how quick and easy it was to light up the charcoal without using a chimney starter. It fired up so fast that I don't have to worry about our nice smoky bbq flavour dinner being delayed. I feel in control of the bbq timing now when using this Colesman Dual fuel BBQ. Show details
After doing plenty of research, we recently invested in some Coleman Revolution kitchen modules to fit in to an "L-Shape" area under our Gazebo. Simple to put together using the instructions (probably need two people as some bits can be fiddly), these units fit amazingly in to the space, are super sturdy, have plenty of storage and look great. We… Read more
have had nothing but great feed back from friends and family. Very happy with the result and highly recommend.
We recently decided we needed a new BBQ. After extensive research, we decided on the Coleman Revolution based on what we perceived to be the best value BBQ based on all the info we could find, including review sites like this one. We were a little nervous ordering online having not seen the BBQ in person, but the research paid off! We got the 4… Read more
burner model with side burner in matte black and WE LOVE IT!
We think the Coleman Revolution range looks sleek. But they go way beyond looks. Assembly took about 4 hours, but you really get to appreciate the quality of the materials used. Each piece just feel heavier and stronger than our previous BBQ. You really do get the impression this BBQ is going to outlast most of its competitors. It has a smaller footprint than some other 4 burner BBQs we looked at, but it still packs huge cooking surface. The BBQ features what Coleman call “Flare-Free Technology”, and thanks to its double/stacked grates and it’s unique way of draining away fats, it really does make a big difference and gives you much more confidence flipping fatty burger patties and the like.
While we have only used the BBQ a few times, we are just so impressed with the cooking results. The quality really does show through and we get all the benefits of barbecued foods without the excessive charring you can get with flareups from other BBQs. The lid is double-layered and you can really notice the great heat retention. This is great for indirect cooking, and the precise gas control means you can easily nail your desired internal temp. This BBQ really does allow you to take your BBQ chef skills to a new level.
The other thing we have noticed is how fast this BBQ heats up. We used to have our old BBQ fully cranked, hood down, for a full 20 minutes before it was ready to start cooking. This BBQ is hitting 300degrees + in half that time! The other major benefit we have noticed, is the sides and inside hood surfaces still look like new. Cleaning seems like it is already going to be much easier. We guess the fat draining system and flare free features are contributing to less splatters and smoke/soot buildup? Either way, we are already loving these time saving features, something we had not considered before buying this BBQ.
We are by no means BBQ gurus. We have not tested other BBQs in this price range. But we can say with some confidence after doing our research and now owning a Coleman Revolution, we don’t think you’ll find a BBQ that offers better value at this price point. We are thrilled with our purchase highly recommend this BBQ.
Received this as a gift. Assembly was relatively straight forward and doesn't require any special tools. Took approximately 4 hours to assemble and recommend 2 people for some parts of the assembly. The barbecue itself is great for apartments (2-burner). Small enough to not take up too much space on the balcony and we've used it to cook for 6… Read more
people. Starts every time, easy to clean, consistent, even cooking and has all the features; warming rack, thermometer on the hood, grill and flat plate, folding side shelves, enclosure for LPG tank.
Absolutely love the Coleman Dual Fuel BBQ! Perfect for both uses. Always great to have a strong Gas BBQ with great heat output and no flare ups but even to be able to smoke a Brisket or my favourite - to reverse sear a Tomahawk steak over charcoal! Its a really well-built unit, incredibly sturdy and heats up easily and quickly. Nothing better than… Read more
being able to ignite your charcoal in a matter of minutes with the gas jet under the charcoal side. A game changer. Love it!

Picked up the Coleman Revolution 4-Burner, took a bit to put together but once it’s done, ya laughing. Solid build, feels tough as nails. The flare-reduction grates work a treat — no dramas with flare-ups, just even heat and top-notch cookin’. One-time effort, long-time payoff. Bloody beauty of a barbie Show details
Follow-up · So far, so good — the BBQ heats consistently. One valid point to mention, and this applies to most new BBQs in Australia: the regulator connection to the gas bottle has a newer safety mechanism. When swapping gas bottles (as I did), this safety feature can sometimes activate, even when there is no actual gas leak. When that happens, the gas flow… Read more

I was moving from an old 6 burner and have smokers and other portable options in other brands. Given this I was looking for something that was high quality and didn't have hot spots or couldn't get hot enough. The revolution 4 burner is perfect with the hot plate and grill, especially the flare free technology so oil and fats run away and into… Read more · 1
the convenient container. This is super convenient and makes it much more enjoyable to cook with rather than trying to get the fat down into a tiny hole that just sits below the bbq waiting for a disaster if it was to catch alight.
The service was also amazing, had a few issues ordering through another channel and the team at Coleman were able to help me out, I cancelled my other order and had the BBQ delivered the next day.
It is heavy, and might need someone to help you initially unpack it but the parts themselves are light and easy enough to handle to put it together, I did it myself and took me about 3.5 hours.
If you're looking for a BBQ, I highly recommend it!

As a long time Coleman product fan, I recently purchased the Coleman Revolution Barbecue, and I can honestly say it’s one of the best investments I’ve made for outdoor cooking. Right out of the box, the setup was straightforward — Coleman provides clear instructions, and everything feels sturdy and well-made. The performance is where it really… Read more
shines. The burners ignite instantly with the push-button start, and the heat distribution is even across the entire cooking surface. I’ve grilled everything from burgers and steaks to veggies and skewers, and everything comes out perfectly cooked with awesome sear marks. I also appreciate the thoughtful design touches — the built-in thermometer is accurate, the shelves offer great prep space, and the grease tray is super easy to remove and clean. The Revolution heats up fast and holds its temperature consistently, even on windy days. If you love grilling and want a dependable, stylish BBQ that delivers excellent results every time, I highly recommend the Coleman Revolution. It’s enhanced our backyard gatherings and weekend meals to a whole new level! Regards Darren
Great Customer service and quality BBQ – I've been looking for BBQ's and reading reviews on various sites for weeks before I decided to buy a Coleman 2 burner Revolution BBQ. I found the only BBQ that had received 5 star ratings was the Coleman, so I bought one! Initially I had trouble contacting Coleman through their website, but in the end used their WhatsApp to contact them. No name… Read more · 1
was given by the person helping me via the app, but they guided me through the whole procedure of purchasing the BBQ, and they gave me their personal assurances they would look after the whole transaction, which they did. My BBQ arrived the other day and this weekend I'm going to assemble it. I'll update this review with pics and assembly details at a later date, but I just wanted to express my appreciation to the person at Coleman who helped me. Thank you.
***UPDATE*** Assembly was pretty straight forward. It took two people 2 hours. Only problem was I was supposed to get 10 washers, but only got 8, aside from that, all good. Very happy with my purchase and looking forward to hosting friends with my new BBQ.

Absolutely love my Coleman Revolution 2-Burner! It’s the perfect size for my smaller space for the 2 of us. The 'Flare-Free' design is a game-changer; I can finally grill meats without constant flames jumping up. It’s very well-made and solid, yet it was easy enough to assemble on my own. If you’re looking for a sturdy, low-maintenance BBQ that cooks to perfection, this is it!" Show details
Very pleased with my purchase. Assembling it was straight forward with the instruction book very helpful. I had one query about which was readily answered by a call to Coleman. I love the way fat is collected, as well as how the dual grill bars work. Highly recommended. Show details
Our Coleman Revolution 4 burner BBQ was delivered a couple of weeks ago. Easy to understand assembly instruction was included. All parts were clearly marked which made it easy to assemble. Instruction for the first use was handy. Before the first use, we washed and dried grills and hotplate and applied avocado oil using silicone brush. then set… Read more
the nubs to Med-Low for 20 minutes. So far, we have cooked steaks and sausages and kebabs a couple of times each. Perfect flame and flare free as the grills collect most of unwanted oils into the channel connected to a side pan. Afterwards, cleaning was simple and the included accessory to clean the grills was useful.
The Coleman 4-burner BBQ is built tough and delivers steady, even heat every time. It heats up quickly, the lid feels solid, and the burners are made to last – perfect for Aussie backyards. The low flame feature is a real plus, letting you keep the snags warm without drying them out, so you’ve got more control over the cook. Easy to clean and simple to use, it’s a dependable BBQ whether you’re cooking for the family or having a few mates over. Show details
A great BBQ, but I can't give a really positive review given the awful packaging. A 78kg box? Who can lift that and why can't you split it into a few packages so you don't kill your customers? And the shocking level of environmentally damaging packaging - a huge amount of polystyrene, bubble wrap and plastic. You are creating a landfill disaster.… Read more
Hence rating lowest on safety. Overall the instructions to build the BBQ were good, it had some mistakes. So only buy if you are a weight lifter, don't need help opening jars, and care little for the environment.

The sturdy construction and sleek design not only look great but also ensure it will last for years. It's become my go-to BBQ for any occasion, and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. Highly recommend to anyone who loves to grill!
Purchased in 2024, just in time for Christmas gatherings. Huge hit with all the family, not only for the way it BBQ's, smokes and grills, and the flavours it produces, but how we can basically cook all of our meats and sides at the same time. The technical staff and service staff are 100%. Had an issue with the charcoal igniter, only to find out… Read more
it was originally installed incorrectly, the technician talked me through and identified the problem, then sent out a replacement part with instructions. They not only know they're product but are really helpful in all queries. Victoria and Barry Allen Runaway Bay Queensland

Shopped around for bbq for a long time. Finally settled on the the Dual Fuel as we like both options to cook with. It’s fantastic. We have used each side separately or had both in when needing. My fav so far has been putting potatoes bake in the coal side. Took it to a whole new level with subtle smokey flavour. It’s surprising how much fat comes out into the easy to clean drawers. It’s very easy to clean. Show details
Coleman convert – This is best BBQ I have owned. Took a while to assemble 4 hours, but instructions were clear and its very solid but easy to move and brakes hold it safely. Fast pre heat even cooking across both plates. Results excellent. Cleans easily and the wind on the patio didn't affect cooking. Sausage, patties, vegetables and steak all cooked nicely. Show details

A Game-Changer for Perfect BBQ Glazed Ham – The Coleman Revolution Dual Fuel BBQ is an impressive piece of outdoor cooking equipment that offers versatility, convenience, and excellent performance. Having recently cooked a BBQ glazed ham on this grill, I can confidently say it delivers fantastic results, making it an ideal choice for those who love both traditional and experimental BBQ cooking.
Coleman BBQ – What a great BBQ. I’ve had a few BBQ’s over the past 44 years and have to say, as a professional chef, this is probably the best thus far. It is a solid unit, easy to put together and great to use. I’ve used to for steaks, sausages and chicken tenderloins and have had no issues thus far. I particularly like the “drip tray jug” and the convenience… Read more
it gives in trapping grease. If there is one improvement, in my opinion, a larger “flat grill” would be great to allow the ability to cook more eggs on - otherwise excellent. I purchased it online so realistically had no real idea as to its sturdiness and have to say it’s surpassed my expectations.
