We Spent $4,000 on Pellet Grills to Document the Shipping Experience<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

You want a pellet grill, but what about the shipping? Is it painless? Over the past 3 years, the pellet grill market has exploded in growth. Partially as a result of this, and partially as a further cause of the growth, you can now find pellet grills in normal retail stores. This wasn\u2019t always the case. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Five years ago, if you wanted a good pellet grill, you either bought from a manufacturer\u2019s website, from a specialty Patio and Outdoor store, or perhaps from Amazon. Now, though, you can find a myriad of brands and models in your local big-box stores–from Lowe\u2019s, Wal-Mart, Home Depot and Target to Bass Pro Shops, Cabela\u2019s and even your local Ace Hardware.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Buying Online vs. A Box Store<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Buying locally has one distinct advantage over ordering a grill: it\u2019s immediate. You get to take your new baby home. Many stores will even put them together for you but BEWARE this convenience. (We\u2019ll talk about why you should assemble your own grill later in this article.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For many of us, though, we like buying online. Perhaps Amazon has a better price than your local store. You may not live in an area that has stores that sell pellet grills. Maybe the local store only carries Traeger or Pit Boss and you want another brand. Or maybe you\u2019re a member of Amazon Prime or have an Amazon Store card and would like to take advantage of their flexible no-interest financing options or rewards. Whatever your reasons, you can get a pellet grill shipped to you. But there\u2019s a large difference between buying a pellet grill online and another normal product: THEY ARE VERY LARGE AND HEAVY. The process is painless, but it is slightly different than ordering a new air fryer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Larger grills are often delivered via local freight carriers<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

We spent over $4,000 online buying new pellet grills, and we documented the process from purchase to delivery. We ordered via Amazon or direct from the manufacturer and had them delivered to a residential address. Hopefully we can take some of the fear of the unknown out of the process for you. We\u2019ll cover the shipping process or pellet grills ordered from direct from the manufacturer, and then we\u2019ll illustrate the shipping process from Amazon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
