The best 4 burner gas BBQs, compared.
Top pick: CosmoGrill Original 4+1 gas BBQ – Highest score: 4.4 from 1,036 reviews, 88 points, at about £199.99. Not a measured heat test. Best value: CosmoGrill Original 4+1 gas BBQ – Best value as the lowest price at 4 stars or above with at least 100 UK reviews. The same listing as the top pick, about £199.99. Updated 22.10.2026.
A 4 burner gas BBQ is a freestanding outdoor trolley with four main gas burners under a hood. You buy one in the UK when a cook for about six or more needs two heat zones on the grate. Most trolleys sold as 4+1 add a side ring for a pan. That ring is not a fifth burner under the grate. Tell a suitable trolley apart by the stated cooking area, the body width, and whether a hose and regulator are in the box. Patio gas and propane are nominally 37 mbar, butane is 28–30 mbar, and a new regulator should be marked BS EN 16129. A cover does not stop rust. Kilowatt bullets often disagree with the power field on the same listing, and BS EN 498:2012 sets no thermal-efficiency score for these outdoor LPG barbecues. The order of those checks is in the [4 burner gas BBQ buying guide](/hub/grills-and-barbecues/4-burner-gas-bbq/sub/4-burner-gas-bbq-buying-guide). Keep the barbecue outdoors, clear of a tent, awning or caravan, and leave clearance from fences and sheds.

Personal buying guide
Question 1 of 2
What do you want first?
The CosmoGrill Original 4+1 is the trolley with the largest UK sample in this set: about £199.99 on amazon.co.uk, a stated cooking area of 1,952 cm², and a body 126 cm wide. The listing line is 4.4 from 1,036 reviews, which is why it is the top pick here and the best value among the rows at 4 stars or above with at least 100 reviews. Reviewers call it sturdy, say the area suits a household, and mention using the side burner for onions, which matches the claimed 2.1 kW ring and the individual piezo ignition. The included-components field lists a lid and a rack, and UK reviews say the hose and regulator were not in the box, so some buyers wrote before they had cooked. Power fields disagree: bullets claim four 7.2 kW burners plus the side burner, while other fields print 9.3 kW and 31.75 British Thermal Units, so none of those figures is a measured output you can rank. Assembly is a two-person flat-pack the bullets put within two hours, and reviews call the side-burner diagram fiddly, with a missing or incorrect part showing up more than once. A review title also calls the heat spacing odd, and the warranty field is blank.
Pros
Cons
Best for: You want a 4+1 for a household cook of about six or more, and you will buy a matching UK regulator separately.
Less suitable: You need the hose in the carton, one agreed kilowatt figure, or the larger 2,602 cm² grate.
Specifications
Common questions
Does the CosmoGrill Original include a hose and regulator?
The included-components field lists a lid and a rack. UK reviews say a hose and regulator were not in the box.
How many burners does it have?
The listing is a 4+1: four main burners and one side burner. The heating-elements field says 5. The bullet powers do not match the 9.3 kW field or the 31.75 British Thermal Units field.
Is assembly tool-free?
No. Assembly required is yes. The bullets say two people within two hours. Reviews mention a fiddly side-burner diagram and the need for tools.
The CosmoGrill Pro Deluxe 4+1 is the widest stated grate in this comparison: 2,602 cm² on a body 135 cm wide, listed at about £269.99. The amazon.co.uk line is 4.3 from 910 reviews, close to the Original on stars, though you pay £70 more for that extra area. Bullets claim a 2.5 kW side burner, a double-walled hood, a built-in gauge and four locking castors, and reviewers who have cooked on it talk about flavour once it is built. The included line is a rack and a tray, and a UK review title says no regulator was supplied. Power fields cannot all be true: bullets describe four 2.5 kW burners plus a 2.5 kW side burner, while other fields print 2.5 kW and a heating-element count of 1. Reviews describe unclear instructions and poor fit, and more than one report rust after about six months, including when a cover was used, with warranty help described as limited. The stated weight is 16.6 kg, light for a trolley this wide, so treat the frame as something to check on arrival. A one-year warranty applies if you register with the manufacturer.
Pros
Cons
Best for: You have room for a 135 cm trolley and you want the largest stated grate, accepting the same missing-regulator gap.
Less suitable: You want the strongest review sample for the money, or you expected a cover and a hose in the price.
Specifications
Common questions
Is a regulator included with the Pro Deluxe?
The included-components field lists a rack and a tray. A UK review title says no regulator is included.
Does it have a side burner and a temperature gauge?
The bullets state a 2.5 kW side burner, a double-walled hood and a built-in temperature gauge. The heating-elements field says 1, which conflicts with the 4+1 layout.
What do UK reviews say about rust and assembly?
Reviews describe a hard build and poor fit. More than one review reports rust after about six months, including when a cover was used, and limited warranty help.
The CosmoGrill 4+1 with a cover is the same 1,952 cm², 126 cm layout as the Original, listed at about £219.99 with a 600D Oxford cover named in the bullets. The UK line is 4.1 from 160 reviews, a smaller sample and £20 more. Piezo ignition and a 2.1 kW side burner are stated, the hood is described as double-walled, and some buyers say it looks good once it is assembled. Hose and regulator are not listed, and a UK review says no gas regulator arrived. A review describes severe rust after about seven months despite the included cover and light use, and says the seller treated rust as normal UK weather and outside the warranty, while other reviews call the assembly awful. Power lines conflict again: four 7.2 kW bullets plus a 2.1 kW side burner, against a 9.3 kW field and a wattage of 1,800 W. The warranty field is one year, parts only, for manufacturing issues. Choose the bundle when the cover itself is the reason you are paying the difference.
Pros
Cons
Best for: You want this 126 cm 4+1 and you specifically want the 600D cover in the same carton.
Less suitable: You are paying the extra £20 in the hope that the cover will stop rust.
Specifications
Common questions
Is a cover included?
The bullets describe a 600D Oxford cover. The included-components field only says 4 burner gas barbecue.
Does this listing include a hose and regulator?
They are not listed. A UK review says no gas regulator is included.
Does the cover stop rust, according to the reviews?
A review describes severe rust after about seven months despite the included cover and light use, and says the seller treated rust as normal UK weather and outside the warranty. That is the reviewer’s report.
The Campfire 4+1 Pro+ matches its sibling on price and size: about £169.99, 2,275 cm², 129.5 cm wide, model GC4+11, listed weight 28 kg. The star line is 3.8 from 3 UK reviews, so the average is almost no evidence. The saved listing’s single review text is about a missing regulator and hose, and the bullets already say those parts are not included, though that reviewer says it was not obvious in the advert. Included components name a lid, a side burner, a thermometer and a manual, which is a slightly fuller line than the other Campfire. Power fields show the same conflict: four 11.2 kW bullets and a 2.5 kW side burner against an 11.2 kW field. The title adds wheels, moveable and portable, while the body is still a castor trolley of the same stated dimensions. Praised points in the saved listing are blank. Treat 3.8 as a three-review snapshot, and read the 59-review Campfire or the Original before you prefer this ASIN on the average alone.
Pros
Cons
Best for: You already accept a three-review listing at about £169.99 and you will confirm the side burner and the regulator yourself.
Less suitable: You are choosing on star average and want a sample large enough to show rust, missing parts or a hard build.
Specifications
Common questions
How is this different from the other Campfire 4+1?
The shelf price and size match the other Campfire 4+1. This listing weighs 28 kg in the field, includes a lid in the components line, uses model GC4+11, and has 3 reviews rather than 59.
Is a regulator included?
The bullets say the regulator and hose are not included. The only UK review on the listing says the same, and that this was not obvious in the advert.
Are there enough reviews to judge it?
The UK listing line is 3.8 from 3. The saved listing has one review text, about the missing regulator and hose. No praised points are recorded.
The Campfire 4+1, with Touch of Venetian in the brand field, is the about £169.99 trolley with a stated area of 2,275 cm² on a 129.5 cm body. The UK line is 3.4 from 59 reviews: you save £30 against the Original and you give up a large, happier sample. Bullets claim four burners, a 2.5 kW side burner and piezo ignition, and they also say the hose and regulator are not included, which one reviewer notes was at least printed. Reviews still report missing parts, including side-burner connections, a fiddly flimsy build, and customer service described as absent on a missing-parts complaint. The power lines disagree: four 11.2 kW bullets plus a side burner, against a single 11.2 kW field. The manufacturer field says CAMPFIRE while the brand field says Touch of Venetian, so after-sales is harder to pin down from the page alone. A one-year parts warranty is stated. It is a lower shelf price with a larger printed grate than the Original, and a weaker review story than the 1,036-review line.
Pros
Cons
Best for: You want the 2,275 cm² grate at about £169.99 and you will inspect every side-burner part before you connect gas.
Less suitable: You want a four-star history in the hundreds of reviews, or a carton with the side-burner connectors present.
Specifications
Common questions
Are the hose and regulator in the box?
The bullets say the regulator and hose are not included. One reviewer notes that the advert did say so.
Why does the brand field not say Campfire?
The brand-name field is Touch of Venetian. The manufacturer field is CAMPFIRE and the title says Campfire.
What do the reviews say about the side burner?
The bullets claim a side burner. Reviews report missing parts, including side-burner connections, and a fiddly, flimsy build.
The Oopsiou listing is a plain 4 burner at about £127.70, the lowest price in the set, and the listing has no UK review line and no review texts. A side burner is not stated: the bullets describe four burners, four knobs and four steel plates, with electronic ignition and infrared ceramic burners claimed. The title and a highlight say 58 × 39 cm, while the item-dimensions field says 17.5 × 37 × 17.5 cm, so you cannot plan a patio gap from this page. The grate-height bullets say 0–7 cm, adjusted with side wheels that are described as a height mechanism rather than transport castors. Weight, hose, regulator, cover and warranty are not stated, and the model number is printed in French. At this price you are buying an unresolved listing. Skip it if you wanted a 4+1 with a review history, and confirm size and fittings on the live amazon.co.uk page before you pay.
Pros
Cons
Best for: You can confirm one size and the gas fittings on the live page, and you do not need a side burner or a review history.
Less suitable: You want a 4+1, a hose in the description, or any UK star line before you pay.
Specifications
Common questions
Does this Oopsiou have a side burner?
A side burner is not stated. The bullets describe four burners, four control knobs and four steel plates.
Which size is printed?
The title and item highlight say 58 × 39 cm. The item-dimensions field says 17.5 × 37 × 17.5 cm. Those lines conflict. Weight is not stated.
Is there a UK star rating?
The listing has no customer-review line and no review texts, so there is no UK star line to quote.
Six amazon.co.uk 4 burner gas BBQ listings were scored from 0 to 100. The score is the UK star line times 20, rounded: 4.4 is 88, 4.3 is 86, 4.1 is 82, 3.8 is 76, 3.4 is 68, and no review line is 0. Review count does not add points. Fewer than 10 reviews is treated as thin evidence in the written assessment, and a missing line scores 0. Price is used only for the best-value check: the lowest price among listings at 4 stars or above with at least 100 UK reviews. That is the same listing as the top pick, the CosmoGrill Original 4+1 at about £199.99. Cooking area, a side burner, ignition, a cover and a hose are shown in the table. They do not add points. Conflicting kilowatt fields are a limit, not a second score. This is not a lab cook.
Stars
100%The whole score is the amazon.co.uk star line times 20, rounded to a whole number. A 4.4 becomes 88, a 4.3 becomes 86, a 4.1 becomes 82, a 3.8 becomes 76 and a 3.4 becomes 68. No review line becomes 0. The star line is the listing figure, not a lab score. A count under 10 is still scored, and it is described as thin evidence.
Choose the format before the star count. A 4 burner gas BBQ has four main burners under the hood. A 4+1 adds a side ring. In this set the shelf prices run from about £127.70 to about £269.99, and a hose and regulator are not in the included lines. A 4.4 from 1,036 reviews is a different record from 3.8 from 3 reviews. Conflicting kilowatt fields do not add a second score.
A 4 burner gas BBQ is a freestanding outdoor trolley with four main gas burners under a hood. BBC Gardeners' World puts four burners at upwards of six people. A 4+1 adds a side ring for a pan. That ring is not a fifth burner under the grate. Charcoal trolleys, planchas, one-burner portables and six-burner islands are other categories. The usual trolley is lidded, with flame tamers, a warming rack, castors and a lower shelf.
The side ring heats a pan. It is not a fifth burner under the grate. BBC Gardeners' World puts four burners at upwards of six people. Judge the grate by the four main burners, then decide whether you want the extra joint.
In this set the hose and regulator are stated as not included, or they are not listed, and reviews agree. Match a new regulator marked BS EN 16129 to the data plate. Propane and patio gas are nominally 37 mbar. Butane is 28–30 mbar. A Cadac clip-on at about £25 is one example of that extra.
Only one listing names a 600D cover. A review on that listing describes severe rust after about seven months despite the cover. Pro Deluxe reviews also report rust after about six months when a cover was used. A cover sheds rain. It does not rewrite those reports.
Format is the first fork. Four main outdoor gas burners, plus a side burner only if the listing says 4+1. Charcoal, planchas, one-burner portables and six-burner islands are other categories. Cooking area and body width are the second fork. In this set the stated figures are 1,952 cm² at 126 cm, 2,275 cm² at 129.5 cm, and 2,602 cm² at 135 cm. One title says 58 × 39 cm while the dimensions field says 17.5 × 37 × 17.5 cm, so that page cannot set the patio gap.
Hose and regulator come before kilowatts. In this set they are not included or not listed, and reviews agree. None of the six listings prints the plate gas. Liquid Gas UK puts propane and patio gas at nominally 37 mbar and butane at 28–30 mbar. A new regulator should be marked BS EN 16129. Calor names hose to BS 3212 type 2 or BS EN 1763 Class B, and forbids Autogas refills. Piezo is stated on some rows. A gauge is stated on others.
Three typical situations, each with a recommendation from this comparison.
You want two heat zones and room for a trolley about 125–135 cm wide. The CosmoGrill Original 4+1 is about £199.99, at 4.4 from 1,036 reviews, with a stated area of 1,952 cm² on a 126 cm body. The hose and regulator are not in the included list. UK reviews still mention a fiddly side-burner diagram.
You have room for a 135 cm trolley and you want the 2,602 cm² grate. The CosmoGrill Pro Deluxe is about £269.99, at 4.3 from 910 reviews. A UK review says no regulator was included. More than one review reports rust after about six months, including when a cover was used.
You are looking at about £169.99 and a larger printed grate than the Original. The Campfire 4+1 states 2,275 cm² on a 129.5 cm body, at 3.4 from 59 reviews. The bullets say the hose and regulator are not included. Reviews report missing parts, including side-burner connections.
The top pick and the best value are the same listing: the CosmoGrill Original 4+1 at about £199.99. It has the highest score, 88, from 4.4 stars and 1,036 amazon.co.uk reviews, and it is the lowest price among the rows at 4 stars or above with at least 100 UK reviews. The cover bundle is about £219.99 and the Pro Deluxe is about £269.99. The about £127.70 row has no review line, and the about £169.99 Campfire rows sit at 3.4 from 59 reviews and 3.8 from 3 reviews, so those cheaper rows take no badge. The hose and regulator are not in these included lists. None of these scores is a lab cook.
CosmoGrill Original 4+1 gas BBQ
Highest score: 4.4 from 1,036 reviews, 88 points, at about £199.99. Not a measured heat test.
