Is PoshBBQ cheaper than Grillo Outdoor Kitchens?

Yes, like-for-like. PoshBBQ starts at £8,500 delivered fully built. Grillo's closest enclosed layout (the S0570 straight kitchen) is £11,355 including installation; L-shaped enclosed layouts run £12,000–£14,500.

What makes PoshBBQ different from Grillo Outdoor Kitchens?

The hidden hydraulic door. PoshBBQ conceals the door-lift rams behind an integrated cover panel — about 90% of the mechanism is invisible from outside. Every other pod in this category has exposed pistons on the door frame.

Do both companies deliver fully built?

No. PoshBBQ delivers fully built on one pallet with UK-wide delivery included. Grillo kitchens ship flat-pack for self-assembly (kerbside delivery) or with white-glove installation for an extra £1,200.
