Everdure HUB II 54" Charcoal Grill With Touch Controls & Premium Titanium Finish

What are the overall dimensions of the HUB II?

It measures 54.6 inches wide, 23.3 inches deep and 35.4 inches tall. The 54 inches in the product name is the rounded width; 54.6 inches is the figure to plan against.

The 23.3 inch depth is measured with the grills on, so that number already accounts for the cooking grates being in place.

How much clearance do I need above it?

Allow at least 48.1 inches of height, because that is how tall the HUB II stands with the poles up. The 35.4 inch figure is the height with the poles down.

If you are putting it under a pergola, an eave or a patio umbrella, measure to the higher number rather than the resting height.

How much cooking area does it give me?

Cooking capacity is 506.9 square inches. That is the working surface you have for a single cook, spread across a 54.6 inch wide body.

Does it burn charcoal only, or can it run on gas?

Charcoal only. The HUB II is listed as a charcoal grill and there is no gas configuration for this model, so plan on sourcing charcoal for every cook.

That is the trade you are making for charcoal flavor: fuel handling and ash cleanup instead of turning a valve.

What comes in the box?

You get two chrome grills, four Cliplock Forks, one lid/windshield and one rotisserie rod.

Everything in that list is included with the grill, so the rotisserie hardware and the lid are not separate items you have to add.

Do I need to buy a rotisserie kit separately?

No. The rotisserie rod and four Cliplock Forks are included, which is the hardware you mount a roast or a bird on.

Keep in mind the poles-up height of 48.1 inches when you set up for spit cooking, since that is the configuration that raises the grill's profile.

What are the cooking grates made of?

Chrome. Two chrome grills are included with the HUB II rather than one full-width grate.

Will wind be a problem when I cook on it?

The included accessory is a combined lid and windshield, so the same piece that covers the grill also blocks wind across the fire.

That matters more on charcoal than on gas, where a gust can pull heat off the coals mid-cook.

How is the HUB II different from the original HUB?

The HUB II keeps the power and grilling capability of the HUB and adds automated touch controls plus a titanium finish.

If you were comparing the two, the controls and the finish are the difference the description calls out.

Does this grill need an island cutout?

The specifications published for this model are overall dimensions - 54.6 inches wide, 23.3 inches deep, 35.4 inches tall - not island cutout dimensions.

Plan your space around those overall numbers. If you intend to set it into a structure, confirm the requirement against the model designation before you build the opening.
