Char-Griller warranty for charcoal & kamado grills
The short version
Char-Griller doesn't cover everything, but keeps burn and rust-through covered to 5 years. That full coverage is the same as most of the 6 brands we compared, which typically cover nothing in full. Some of this coverage only applies if you register the product.
From Char-Griller's published warranty, checked October 2026.
