Total cooking area The total grate area the manufacturer publishes for the grill as supplied, normally the main grate plus any included upper racks.

Direct-flame or sear option Whether the manufacturer documents a way to expose food to the fire, such as a slide plate or open burn pot, and any figure it states for that zone.

Questions to check before buying	The store page shows SKU 11111, which is also printed on the manual cover beside 300522; neither code is explained, so model PB850M is used as the identity. The 1,000 °F direct-flame figure, temperature range and app features are manufacturer statements, not measured results.
