ATLANTA, July 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Monument Grills, the Atlanta-born “Gas Grill Expert” trusted by more than one million grillers, has won the Red Dot Award: Product Design 2026 for its E425 Pro gas grill. Chosen by an international jury from thousands of entries, the E425 Pro was recognized for the award’s defining standard — aesthetics and function in harmony.
The Monument Grills Eminence Series, led by the Red Dot Award–winning E425 Pro.
Why the E425 Pro Won
- Exclusive Digitemp display, app connectivity, and smart probes let users track and control every cook with precision.
- Tri-color control-knob lighting turns heat levels into clear visual cues, while dynamic ambient light strips set a relaxed outdoor mood after dark.
- A 17,000 BTU infrared side burner reaches temperatures up to 800°C for rapid heat-up and even, high-intensity searing that locks in juices and flavor.
- A modular cooking-grate system adapts effectively to different foods and techniques, while integrated side shelves keep prep work within easy reach. Extra-thick, quiet-close doors deliver superior heat retention and noise reduction. Heavy-duty metal casters glide smoothly, allowing the grill to be moved and repositioned with ease.
- A generous cooking surface with multi-zone heat control lets users cook more at once and serve a whole crowd.
- A built-in gas-weighing system shows remaining cylinder capacity in real time, eliminating guesswork.
- Cast-aluminum lid, body, side panels, and control panel combine lasting durability with easy handling.
“The Red Dot Award is a tremendous honor for our team,” said Ed Reilly, Chief Operating Officer of Monument Grills. “We set out to prove that professional-grade performance and beautiful, intuitive design shouldn’t be a luxury. Seeing the E425 Pro recognized on the world stage tells us we’re delivering on that promise.”
