Note: Not OT as gas grills are used by many at their boat docks.


I can't say enough good things about my Weber propane grill. We live
a block off of salt water, so it takes its abuse. It's outside with
no cover. I cook on it probably 5 days a week, 52 weeks a year. It's
held up extremely well. Weber's customer service is second to none. I
can't even say how long ago I bought it, but it almost never needs
service. Even if Chuck G doesn't live up to your standards for
impartial, objective commentary, I still recommend a Weber.


I have a Weber Genesis Silver B. It has held up well for 7 years being
used 2-3 times a week all year. Swapped the porclain covered burner
bars with stainless a couple of years ago, but nothing has failed on
it.

Only complaint - uneven heat.

The burners are not designed to provide even gas pressure from one end
to the other, so the right side of the grilling area is hotter than the
left. Not a big deal for most of my cooking needs, but if you try to
cook 20 burgers at once, using the entire grilling surface, the stuff
on the right cooks faster.

Doesn't seem to be a problem for rotissere cooking unless I try to put
two things on the spit at once.

I should note that I didn't pay for this grill. I received it as a
gift from my employer. Satisfied enough that I kept it and use it
regularly. But if I was going to spend my own $$$ on new one, I would
look at others.
