Affiliate Disclosure

Last Updated: October 13, 2026

At OutdoorGasGrills (https://outdoorgasgrills.org/), transparency and reader trust come first. In compliance with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising (16 CFR Part 255), this page explains how our website is funded and how affiliate links work across our articles and buying guides.

1. Plain-Language Affiliate Commission Disclosure

Running a hands-on gas grill testing lab—purchasing replacement burners, regulators, digital thermometers, smoker boxes, and protective gear—requires ongoing investment. To keep all of our troubleshooting tutorials and buying guides 100% free for readers without paywalls, OutdoorGasGrills participates in select affiliate marketing programs.

This means that when you click on certain product links in our articles and make a qualifying purchase from a retail partner, we may earn a small referral commission at zero additional cost to you. The price you pay is identical whether you use our link or go directly to the vendor’s website.

2. Amazon Associates Program Disclosure

Amazon Associates Statement: OutdoorGasGrills (outdoorgasgrills.org) is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com and affiliated international Amazon marketplaces. “As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.”

3. Our Editorial Independence Guarantee

Our business model is built on long-term reader trust, not short-term commissions. Every article on OutdoorGasGrills is governed by strict editorial independence:

  • No Paid Verdicts: Manufacturers and retailers cannot pay to alter our BTU test results, pros and cons lists, or final product rankings.
  • Repair First, Replace Second: In our troubleshooting guides, we always prioritize free or low-cost mechanical fixes (such as resetting a tripped regulator bypass valve or cleaning spider webs from venturi tubes) before recommending that you buy a replacement part.
  • Unbiased Comparisons: When a high-priced gas grill uses thin-gauge 430 stainless steel that rusts prematurely, or when a budget accessory outperforms a premium brand, we state it plainly.
