We paid over $1400USD for a custom made BBQ / Grill Outdoor Kitchen Island. This product is so poorly made it could never be used for it's intended purpose.


This grill island is supposed to hold a 100 pound builtin bbq/grill head. It was made so poorly it would not support 1 pound, that is the fact, I can lift it with three fingers. It was made of plastic, which would melt when the bbq was in use.


They do not return phone calls or emails to discuss return/reimbursement/product defects/workmanship.


April 21, 2010 we ordered an outdoor grill island with this company. We have dozens of emails where we discussed how this would be built for us. We agreed on options, colors, size and shipping arrangements. We issued a cheque to the company that was cashed in early May. They were supposed to take two weeks to build this. It was finally shipped to Tonawana, NY on June 29. I picked it up the same day and quickly found out it was made of corrugated plastic cardboard. I didn't know what to do, I carefully and slowly towed it home on my truck/trailer, scared it would blow away or fall apart. I have left dozens of phone calls and dozens of emails to this company, urging them to call me to discuss the following concerns:

1) the walls are made of plastic cardboard. Walls have to be fireproof to meet codes in all states/provinces. That is why they should have been made of backerboard/wonderboard/cement board.
2) various dimensions are incorrect. ie: Fridge cutout area is too big
3) the grill cutout area has no supports to hold the grill, this is the whole purpose of the product
4) Missing pieces for the door handles
5) Stucco application is terrible, uneven, missing in spots, discolored areas, broken away, sprayed overtop of the tile kickboard.
6) Countertop grout is cracked, poorly applied, missing in areas
7) The countertop was cut and was not chamfered, so you can cut yourself just putting your hand on the edge.
8) The tiled edge is not straight, they are stuck on crooked.
9) Countertop was put overtop of corrugated plastic and this should be cementboard or cement layer.
10) The frame is not fastened together in many spots
11) The so-called walls are not attached to the frame in many spots
12) The frame is bent in 3 locations
13) The so-called walls are a mess. A big bulge in one sport, two spots are caved in, holes in two other spots.
14) Kickboard tile is broken off and in another spot it is concaved (should be straight).
15) The transition pieces are 3" too short to be of any use.
16) One section of the wall was pieced together and thus has a joint that is showing, where it could have been done with one piece..just poor workmanship
17) The interior of the double door area was supposed to be lined and isn't.
18) The interior of the fridge area was supposed to be lined and isn't.
19) The grill cutout area supposed to be lined and isn't.


20) Material used for walls will melt/start on fire when the BBQ is used.

I have sent this company an email stating all of these concerns and asked them to contact me. They did open the email. They said I should contact the shipping company about the damages. I replied that my concerns are about their product misrepresentation & poor workmanship. I told them that 95% of the concerns noted are a manufacturing issue, not a shipping problem.

They have never again responded or called me to discuss this further. I have called them every hour for the past 3 days, and I mean every hour. They never pick up their phone or return any phone calls/emails.

This company has misrepresented the product, it would never support the weight of my BBQ/Grill head. They had a piece of paper attached for the shipping company that said "Attention - This is Delicate". An outdoor kitchen island is not supposed to be "Delicate" it stays outside all year long, in all kinds of weather. This product will fly away in a good wind and the walls ripped off in the lightest wind/rain/snow.

We have lots of pictures, if you need them please let me know.

We have been waiting for months for our new outdoor grill island and when it came in, we cried. This is so far from usable for the intended purpose, so poorly put together, inappropriate/wrong materials used, wrong dimensions...you could not even think of repairing it. We have no option but to seek full refund.
