The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other grills, grill parts and burners, smokers and smoking gear, grill tools, outdoor griddles, outdoor kitchen appliances and grill covers we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
The Royal Gourmet GA5401T offers 4 burners, 10,000 BTU, and 602 square inches of cooking area for $275.51. It measures 52.95 by 25.2 by 45.67 inches and weighs 69.5 pounds, making it a full-size freestanding propane grill that suits most standard patios. Four burners across 602 square inches allows you to set up basic heat zones for different proteins.
At 4.0 stars from 590 reviews, the GA5401T is a middling performer in Royal Gourmet's lineup. That rating means the majority of buyers are satisfied, but a meaningful portion had concerns. At this price and spec level, there are Royal Gourmet models nearby with stronger ratings, so it is worth comparing before committing.
The 10,000 BTU output for 602 square inches works out to a lower BTU-per-square-inch ratio than some competitors. For standard grilling it is adequate, but buyers who regularly do high-heat cooking should factor that in. Material details are not available in the published listing data.

Frequently asked questions
Is 10,000 BTU sufficient for a 602-square-inch cooking surface?
Ten thousand BTU across 602 square inches is on the lower end of the range for a grill this size. It will handle everyday grilling tasks like burgers, chicken, and vegetables, but preheating may take a few minutes longer and searing very thick steaks at maximum heat across all burners may not be as fast as higher-BTU models. For most family backyard cooks it gets the job done.
How does the GA5401T compare to the Royal Gourmet GB4001B?
The GB4001B has 766 square inches and 13,000 BTU at $289.99 with a 4.3-star rating from 315 reviews.
