My old propane Weber finally gave up the ghost and it was time to replace it. Went to Lowes and bought a new Weber Genesis. It came in a box, unassembled. WHEW! I think I would rather build a Triumph! This thing took me 4 hours to put together! I have to say, everything fit well (save the fact that some of the hardware was missing, used my spares). Great grill. Love Webers. But buy one already assembled.....

Because it looks so nice,I bought a Weber. It's 5' wide, all stainless, has brass burners a bunch of gadgets <span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-size: 12pt">and</span></span> cold spots on the grill. For what I paid for this thing, it should work better than it does. I hate it! My old grill has lava rock above the burners and has a perfect even heat. You didn't have to move stuff around the grill to get them to cook properly. So here I have a large white, (stainless), elephant on the patio and we still use the old one.
but, I'll never buy another!

Frank,
The second area that I shovel after a storm is my patio, where the Weber Genesis gas grille is stored. That gets as much use during the winter as the oven does.
I rebuilt it completely five years ago after it gave me nearly 20 years of great service. I had the bottom box blasted inside and out and then I painted the outside with heat resistant paint. The original red lid is still fine and the teak handle across the front cleaned up well with a light sanding. I did cover that with clear polyurethane this time around.
The original frame was rusted a bit, so rather than blasting and repainting, I bought a new one from Weber along with new flavor bars and grilles. I should get another 10-15 years out of it before the next tear down.

tr6bill, we have a covered deck outside our kitchen sliding door so we cook out on the grill year round, had a webber for 19 years that i totaly rebuilt 4 times till the bottom fell out, cought a sale at the local depot store on a stainless "vermont casting" unit that cost less then replacing the similar weber we had, very happy with the new one, the only advantage i had with the webber is that a local hardware store carrys every replacement part for every model that webber ever made, i guess in another 4-5 years ill find out how good "vermont casting" is with thier replacement parts.

In Virginia we had a grill that used natural gas, plumbed right into the system and planted in the ground. We used it year round... we don't use ours here that much for some reason.
