This may be the last gas grill you'll ever purchase. It's that good. If perfectly cooked steaks to smoked salmon and succulent roasts have eluded you in the past and your culinary efforts failed to impress your family and friends, this may be your answer. Six independent burners that start effortlessly at the push of a button, an all stainles steel large cooking area that can accomodate enough steraks hamburgers and hot dogs to feed an entire garden party and not take you all night. Flavorizer bars and a smoker box below the cooking grates that give your BBQ meats a taste and flavor to remember. Quality construction throughout. Looks great, outstanding quality and perfect outdoor cooking. I use it 3-5 times a week now and could not be happier.

I love this grill! It has the great look of stainless steel while retaining the rugged look absent in other high end grills. I also looked at Viking, DCS, etc., but this is a much better value. It's a well constructed grill. I've had it almost two years now with no problems whatsoever. One thing you notice is the weight of the lid, it's heavy so there are now doubts about its durability.

The wide cooking area is not too deep which means you won't burn your arm trying to flip a burger in the back row. The cooking area is so large, you can easily cook four salmon filets. The big side trays provide ample prep space--you can buy an optional side burner but I never used that feature on my previous grill and I don't miss it now. The grill cooks very evenly, no hot spots. All the burners produce the same amount of heat at identical settings. If you like to hold big barbecues, this is the grill for you.

I got this grill for my husband and we absolutely love it!!
We've grilled everything on it from our Thanksgiving turkey (on the rotisserie) to ribs to mackerel. Maybe the other weber grills might have been adequate but we don't regret getting this beauty. In the summer, we used it 3-5 days a week. Since we live in northern California, we use it often in the winter as well.
Clean up is a breeze. Turn on all 6 burners on high for about 30 minutes and the grill is clean. We've had this grill for about 8 months now and it is wonderful.

I bought this grill 2 years ago and I absolutely love it! Previously, I owned a Weber Genesis (Red Lid) grill, which worked beautifully (as all Webers do), but I really wanted something with greater cooking capacity, since we host alot of backyard BBQ's in the spring, summer and fall.

I decided to trade up, despite the rather hefty price tag...and I do not regret my decision one bit. I use the grill constantly and it never fails to make me look good. I can cook several different entrees and sides at once, and the multiple independent burners allow me to really control the temperature and produce excellent meals. My only regret was that I got the black lid on the stainless body (I just never liked the way it looked compared to the all-stainless model). To remedy this, I recently ordered a stainless lid directly from Weber. It was pricey, of course, but I love the new look!

In sum, if you love to barbecue and if superior quality is extremely important to you, get this grill. You will not be sorry!
