Kenyon B70430 Grill Review
Our verdict
The Kenyon B70430 is a high-end, three-burner built-in electric grill aimed at premium outdoor kitchens where an open flame is not an option. At $4,695 this is one of the most expensive electric grills on the market, and its two reviews both give it five stars, though that sample is too small to draw firm conclusions.

Overview
['The Kenyon B70430 is a built-in electric grill with three burner elements, a stainless steel body, and a footprint of 40 x 7.25 x 21 inches. It weighs 72 pounds, which puts it firmly in the permanently-installed category. No cooking area figure is listed in the available specs.', 'Three burners give you more zone flexibility than the smaller Kenyon countertop models, letting you run different temperature levels across the cooking surface. The 40-inch width suggests a meaningful cooking surface, but exact square inches are not confirmed in the data.', 'At $4,695, the B70430 is priced like a premium gas or pellet grill from top-tier brands, but in the electric category. Kenyon has built a reputation specifically in the no-flame electric grill segment, and this model appears to be their larger, more capable built-in offering.']

Performance notes
Fuel type is electric with three burner elements. No cooking area or wattage figures are listed in the available specs. The stainless steel body measures 40 x 7.25 x 21 inches and weighs 72 lb, consistent with a permanent built-in install. The 40-inch exterior width should translate to a generous cooking surface, but confirm exact dimensions and electrical requirements directly from Kenyon before planning a countertop cutout.
What buyers say
Two reviews averaging 5.0 stars signals initial buyer satisfaction, but two reviews is not a meaningful sample. Buyers considering a $4,695 purchase should seek additional sources beyond Amazon ratings, including professional reviews or direct input from Kenyon's customer support.

Frequently asked questions
Who is the Kenyon B70430 designed for?
This grill is built for permanent outdoor kitchen installations where gas and charcoal are prohibited, such as high-rise condos, luxury apartments with rooftop terraces, or some HOA-governed communities. The three-burner layout and 72 lb weight assume it will stay in one place rather than be moved around.
How does the three-burner electric design affect cooking?
Three independent burner elements let you set up a rough version of direct and indirect heat zones. You can run one or two elements at full power for searing while keeping a third at a lower setting for holding or finishing. This is the closest a countertop electric grill gets to the zone cooking you would do on a multi-burner gas grill.
Is the $4,695 price justified compared to other electric grills?
Kenyon builds grills specifically for no-flame environments, and their pricing reflects that specialized market rather than a direct comparison with gas grills of similar size. If you genuinely need a built-in electric unit at this scale, the competitive set is narrow and the alternatives are not significantly cheaper. If you have the option to use gas, a premium gas grill of comparable size costs considerably less.
