Product Description

When we launched the Genesis gas grill line back in 1985, we launched more than a new line of grills- we launched a grilling revolution. The Genesis line changed the way gas grills work with a new and innovative cooking system that stopped flare-ups and created even heat without messy lava rocks. Our system was so good, it wasn't long before other brands tried to replicate it. Close, but no cigar. Weber's cooking system is still the best on the market, and here's why: Burneres made of high-grade stainless steel run the length of the cookbox, providing even heat accross the grill. --Flavorizer bars completely cover the burners, no holes or cutouts. They are precisely angled to generate heat and facilitate run off of juices that aren't vaporized. --A drip system for directing grease away from the burners. Drippings are channeled into a funnel shaped bottom tray under the burners and collect in a large drip pan. Both the funnel-shaped tray and the drip pan are easy to remove from the front of the grill. --At least two or more individually controlled burners for cooking direct or indirect. Burners have infinite control valves so you can fine tune the temperature. Genesis Platinum gas grills include two model types--B and C. Platinum B models have three burners, and Platinum C models have three burners and a 12,000 BTU-per-hour input side burner. Both models feature stainless steel frames, fully enclosed cart with stainless steel doors and handles, stainless steel cooking grates, stainless steel flavorizer bars, thermoset work surfaces with stainless steel inserts, Crossover ignition system, solid robot-welded carts, built in thermometer, and a double-walled construction stainless steel hood that adds a layer of insulation to trap heat and protect the stainless steel hood from discoloring. All natural gas models include a 12 ft. flexible hose. All models also feature a limited lifetime warranty.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Grill, July 14, 2006
This review is from: Weber 6780001 Genesis Platinum C Stainless-Steel Propane Grill (Lawn & Patio)
At first the thought of spending $750 on a grill seemed insane. Then I started adding up all of the $250-$350 grills I've had to buy in the 7-years I've owned my home. Based on reading hundreds of reviews, I figured that a stainless steel grill made by Weber would be the last grill I'd have to buy. I think I might be right.

I bought the natural gas version, which I would highly recommend. No more messing around with propane. Just turn on the valve and you've got flame.

I've had the grill outdoors for 4 months now (somtimes covered, sometimes not) and there are no signs of any corrosion anywhere. The stainless steel cleans easily and polishes up nicely.

The drip catch system is higher quality than I've seen, with a ceramic coated 'funnel' that drains juices down to the tin catch pan. Nothing collects near the flames so flare-ups are minimized. The 'flavorizer' bars immediately incinerate any grease that falls on them. The grill is easy to dismantle for cleaning.

The front-to-back burners provide perfectly even heat and a lot of it. The thermometer on the grill easily spins past the highest marking of 600 degrees. At these temperatures steaks sear nicely and the grill is almost 'self cleaning' since any stuck-on food is almost completely incinerated. Anything that remains on the grill easily scrapes off the stainless steel grates.

The front-to-back burners also allow you to use the grill like an oven. By shutting off the center burner, you can use indirect heat to cook food without searing it. The insulated hood keeps heat inside which makes the grill more efficient but also makes it easier to stand next to while cooking (not much heat radiates around the grille).

I'm convinced that this grill is an excellent investment.

5.0 out of 5 stars The DIfference between a Weber and a "cheapy", October 6, 2006

This review is from: Weber 6780001 Genesis Platinum C Stainless-Steel Propane Grill (Lawn & Patio)
My old Grill was well over-due for replacement, and so I started doing some research into a replacement. My previous grill was a Coleman, and had lasted a good 10 years, although the cooking quality had definately deteriorated.

I was going to purchase another "cheapy" grill, but in my research, I noticed something - almost every Weber owner rated their grill 5-star, whereas the cheapies usually mustered three stars at best.

A little more research quickly pointed out why - Webers may not last any longer than the cheaper competitors, but a 10-year old Weber still cooks better than the cheap ones do when brand new.

I invested in the "Platinum C". but have yet to use the side-burner, so I'm not sure how valuable that is. I was delighted with the quality of the Grill - it was easy to assemble, and the cooking quality is - fantastic. I purchased a Weber Griddle, and I also have a Pizza stone, and with these two additions, I cooked 8 meals in a row on my Weber, including Bacon and Eggs, home-made bread, pizza, and of course, grilled steak.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Grill Ever, March 2, 2006
This review is from: Weber 6780001 Genesis Platinum C Stainless-Steel Propane Grill (Lawn & Patio)
I have been through atleast 3 grills prior to this one. I was the type of person that would buy the $200 job from Sears or something and figure I'll get about five years out of this one. Never did. 2-3 Seasons tops. This grills you know will last. Solid, stainless steel, warranties that are more than a couple of months. Its built to last and gaurenteed to last aleast five years. It will be worth every penny you spend.
