Do you have a link to one of these grills? Let's see if they are a practical replacement for the millions of grills in use. Then the OP can decide for himself. Maybe you will convert the rest of us.

The OP asked about the safety of gas fired grills used on a deck. There are propane grills that are listed as cooking appliances for use in or on a structure. Like the propane range in your kitchen they have been tested by a nationally recognized testing laboratory for safety when used in or on a structure. They can be fueled with a remote supply of propane just the way your kitchen range is or, if it needs to be movable, then they have a connection for a portable cylinder that is configured to prevent the use of cylinders larger then 10 pounds. They look a lot like the more expensive portable outdoor types but they have been tested for use in structures. They are not the table top units that you have alluded to all though they are available as a built in counter top unit. They are the only propane fired grills that are tested for safe use in or on structures.
