Built for Durability, Ease of Repair, & Versatility

AEI grills represent the cutting edge of outdoor gas-powered grilling technology. We take pride in producing and carrying only the finest grilling and heating appliances. Here, we will discuss some key features of the brand promise for all A-Series, T-Series, & Legacy Series grills.

Durability

Designed and constructed not just from premium materials, but from the most durable and attractive materials, AEI grills are built to last. This includes not just the form and materials of the major frame and exterior components, but for critical internal parts, welds, fasteners, bolts, screws, and more.

Ease of Repair

All A-Series, T-Series, and Legacy Series grills are built using a modular design that is optimized for the ease with which you can remove and repair or replace any and all exterior and interior parts and components. We carry a comprehensive supply of OEM grill parts ready to ship out on demand so that you can easily replace any part that needs to be replaced quickly and easily. Best of all, all of our various lines and models come with a laser-etched instruction plate riveted to the frame. This will ensure that you will always be able to operate your grill, even if you've put it away for several months and need a quick refresher course.

Versatility

As you can see from the descriptions of our products above, you can fill nearly any outdoor area and accommodate any grilling need with our selection of BBQ appliances. Nearly all of our products are designed to be free-standing or installed as a built-in barbecue grill in an outdoor grill island or outdoor countertop. But that's just a start. Of course, you also have the option of choosing between

Propane & Natural Gas

Of course, you also have the option of choosing between propane fueled models and natural gas-fueled models. Both fuel types are reliable, affordable, efficient, and safe. The most important difference between propane and natural gas is how they are connected and mounted. As mentioned above, natural gas grills must be connected to an in-ground gas line. This means they need to be mounted in a fixed position. Propane grills must carry an onboard propane tank which will need to be refilled, or replaced. Propane grills can be very portable. These two fuel types give you a wide range of options.

Our grills are compatible with a long list of accessories, companion products, and add-ons. These include auxiliary infrared burners, shelving, storage, gas grill briquettes, and much more. 

When you chooseAEI, you get our uncompromising promise of world-class quality and customer service. It's an easy promise to keep because AEI grills do most of the work!
