Our verdict on each
Monument Grills
Monument Grills suits cooks in the US and Canada who want app control and long cover on gas rather than a broad catalogue of fuels and formats. The flagship carries 10 years of warranty, which is the single figure that most separates it from the alternatives on this page.
R.W.FLAME
Rowan International suits buyers in US who want a gas grill or griddle without a large outlay, with tabletop models from $144.99. The 538 °C ceiling and a cooking area of 2,639 cm² are the draw, while the catalogue stays at gas grill and griddle and warranty runs 1 year.

Pros and cons
Monument Grills
Pros
- Warranty of 10 years on the flagship, well above the 4 typical in this group.
- Cooking area of 5,548 cm² on the flagship takes a full spread in a single cook.
- Portable is a yes and app connected is a yes, so the grill moves with the cooking and cooks are watched from a phone.
Cons
- Fuel is gas only, so anyone set on charcoal or pellet cooking needs a different brand.
- Support runs on email, chat and help centre only, with no phone channel in that list.
- The range covers gas grill alone, where Char-Broil lists gas grill, charcoal grill and electric grill.
R.W.FLAME
Pros
- Prices start at $144.99 on the tabletop range, so a first grill is a small outlay rather than a large purchase, with freestanding models above that entry.
- Maximum temperature of 538 °C ranks 2 of 23 on that measure, so searing heat is the strong suit.
- Support covers email, phone and help centre, so help is easy to reach before and after the sale without a dealer counter.
Cons
- Warranty runs 1 year, short of the 4 typical across grills and smokers brands.
- The range is gas grill and griddle only, where gas grill, charcoal grill and electric grill stretches to charcoal and smoker models.
- Shipping runs to US, so buyers outside that market have no route through this store.
Who each suits
Monument Grills
Who it suits
- Gas cooks who want cover to last, with warranty at 10 years.
- US and Canadian buyers, since the range runs in US and CA.
- People who cook with a phone in hand, as app connected is a yes.
Who should look elsewhere
- Charcoal and pellet cooks, who will find those fuels at GrilyKrby.cz.
- Cast-iron charcoal buyers, who should look at Lodge instead.
- Smoker shoppers, since Char-Broil lists gas grill, charcoal grill and electric grill.
R.W.FLAME
Who it suits
- Buyers in US starting out, since tabletop grills from $144.99 keep the first purchase small.
- Anyone who wants high heat, since 538 °C ranks near the front of the group on that measure.
- People who want phone control and portable grills for a balcony or a small patio.
Who should look elsewhere
- Char-Broil, for a wider set of formats across gas grill, charcoal grill and electric grill, including charcoal and smokers.

- Lodge, whose charcoal grill, smoker and griddle range is centred on charcoal cookers.

Questions about each
Monument Grills
How much does a Monument Grills grill cost?+
Grills start at $169 across the collection, and the range itself is gas grill. That entry figure places Monument Grills in the middle of the price row rather than at either end, which matters for anyone budgeting for a patio cooker that also carries a long warranty.
What fuel do Monument Grills grills burn?+
The range runs on gas, so the grills are gas models rather than charcoal, pellet or electric. Gas is the most common fuel in this category, but a plan built around wood or pellets points elsewhere, and the alternatives carry those fuels.
R.W.FLAME
What does the cheapest grill cost?+
Tabletop models start at $144.99, and the same store carries freestanding gas grills and griddles under gas grill and griddle. Fuels are limited to gas and electric, so a charcoal or wood cook looks to Lodge or GrilyKrby.cz rather than here. That entry price is the purchase outlay, the number that decides whether a first grill is an easy buy.
Which markets does it ship to?+
Shipping is listed for US, a single market, and the company sits in the United States, so delivery beyond that market is not part of the offer. Buyers outside it find more choice at GrilyKrby.cz, which lists gas grill, charcoal grill and pellet grill, and at Char-Broil with gas grill, charcoal grill and electric grill to compare.
