Outset 76547 Grill Scraper Verde, Price/each

At the time of writing this review, this BBQ cleaner costs $27.19. This is a bit pricey, but it's eco friendly, so for those who care this is worth the premium. Outset makes great BBQ equipment, and this is no exception. The quality, considering it is recycled paper, is impressive. The scraper has resisted the pains and pressure of a typical heavy duty BBQ cleaning. I've been able to put some real pressure on this without much flex and with no breaking. The scraper will take a while to develop the grooves. I would like to know how the scraper is created. With this being made from recycled scraps, I assume there must be some pressure treatment or binding agent, and there's not many that are good to breathe in smoke format. I usually clean my grill with really high heat, so I would like to know if the faint smoke this emits is safe to breathe in or not. Either way, this scraper is comfortable to use and looks good. It doesn't have the nice smoky scent you get with other wooden scrapers made from oak or pine, but for the price this is a practical and eco friendly alternative.

This scraper is very affordable, great quality (held up well to heavy scraping) and it gets into the gaps of the BBQ grates really well. It's the perfect replacement for wire brushes as they can be dangerous. This should last quite a while. Overall, very happy with this item!

I ordered this for our camping BBQ and it works great! It is very durable and sturdy, removes the grease and grim with ease.

This grill scraper is said to be made of recycled paper. I'm not sure if it's 100 made of that, but it sure does a great job scraping a grill. It would be a shame if some plastic was involved in the process to give it some strength, as it would kind of defeat the purpose of using recycled paper, but when it comes to doing its job, it's as good, if not better than a wood scraper. It's also pretty large, which could be cumbersome for smaller BBQs. The materials do seem to adapt pretty quickly to the shape of the grill. If you do happen to have flat surfaces between some of the grates like my BBQ has, cleaning might be a little tricker, but still turns out great after a little work. In the end, scrapers like this one are much better and safter than bristle scrapers, and one that is sturdy like this one is even better.

Very robust and well-formed. It's surprisingly thick and heavy, and extremely well finished, with smoothly rounded grips, and precision-sharp scraping edges. Unfortunately, the tooth spacing is nowhere near the right fit for my Cuisinart grill, and the hanging hole is quite small (it should probably include a cord loop) and not center-balanced, so it hangs askew. Nevertheless, I used the deep corner and long edge and got the job done one bar at a time. I thought maybe I could "wear" it into form like a wooden scraper, but NO CHANCE. This stuff is very hard. I did not go easy on it, even using it to pry up the heavy cast iron grill plates, and after washing (as you can see) there is almost no sign it was even used. I'm hoping for an answer to my question about the type of resin used in its making. As a careful skeptic, I note that the description conspicuously avoids the details of its composition. This is a wonder material I'm sure, but it is certainly NOT just recycled paper! It has some percentage of wood pulp fiber, but the epoxy resin is key. Aye, and there's the rub! So to speak. Is the marketing hype just green-washing? What is this but an unrecyclable slab of forever-plastic now? Made of recycled and sustainable stuff is the claim, sure, but what becomes of it next? Think twice about the full lifecycle. The description puts the knock on wood, but which one can be modified without machine tools, reacts predictably to heat, contains (and releases) familiar, unprocessed, fully-disclosed, and eon-tested molecules, and is fully biodegradable when its second life ends?

The fact that this product is made from recycled and sustainable materials is an absolute bonus. It even looks like an eco-friendly product. In addition, I like that this is a great and cleaner alternative to wire bristles. It is sturdy, but not heavy, and is easy to clean. The grooves of this cleaner fit perfectly between the grill grates of my barbecue. It has two grip areas making cleaning easier depending on how you want to hold it. The sticker found on the product is easy peel off, leaving no sticky residue as with many other products. The look and feel are clean and durable. Having used it once it did the job very well. Time will tell whether the cleaning grooves of the product will warp, degrade, and wear out over time. As for now, I give it a worthy 5 star rating.
