Fire Magic vs Lynx vs Twin Eagles Brand Comparison
Fire Magic vs. Lynx vs. Twin Eagles - Which U.S. Made Grill will you Build-in?
Choosing which Grill Brand to sell can be an overwhelming decision. Number one decision has to be: buy a USA-Made product from a manufacturer with a longstanding imprint in the market. In this post we will compare three luxury grill brands: Fire Magic vs Lynx vs Twin Eagles.
Each of these brands have a longstanding footprint in the outdoor appliance industry - RH Peterson (Fire Magic) having been the longest in business.
As you can see in the illustration, there are similar features with all three brands. The most distinct is burner style. These are very different within the brands. All three brands have an extensive collection of outdoor kitchen components and accessories. There are some aesthetic differences but all three are beautifully designed and engineered.
Luxury Grill Features
Burners
Each of these brands use a different burner style. Fire Magic uses a heavy duty cast stainless "E" burner, Lynx has a cast ceramic burner and Twin Eagles has a stainless U. We prefer either the cast stainless or cast ceramic as it provides better heat retention and radiation.
Cooking Grates
These differ from Lynx vs Twin Eagles and Fire Magic. Lynx uses a cylindrical rod grate while Fire Magic has a Diamond Sear and Twin Eagles has a hexagon-shaped. What we love about the Diamond Sear is these grates have a smooth flat top with each bar measuring over .35” wide at the top. More food to surface contact. Food cooks faster and more evenly!
Heat Distribution
Fire Magic uses a Flavor Grid (which can double as a multi-fuel source by using either wood or charcoal directly on the grids) and both Lynx and Twin Eagles use a Briquette Tray System. We do prefer the ceramic briquettes for their even heat radiating ability but being that Fire Magic has the Cast "E" Burner, you will get great radiating heat below the flavor grids.
The ignition Hot Surface in all three.
Warranty
Warranties are similar across all three of these luxury grill lines.
One feature you cannot get on any other grill except Fire Magic is the optional Magic View Window. This allows you to see your foods grilling without lifting the hood and letting the heat out. It's made of heat-resistant transparent ceramic glass and is designed to operate at temperatures up to 1,400°F!
