Surprised

I am surprised at some of the negative reviews. We have had several Webers which has spanned over 30 years, this one is great. We have owned the Summit 470 for one year and have used it on average 4 times per week, winter and summer. It has held up just fine and looks as good as new.Of course, I am responsible to keep it cleaned and covered, but that is it. I have had two issues with it, at no fault of the unit. When I called Weber, they have been more than helpful to make sure that I am satisfied - even when the issues were with the dealer and not them. I could attach a photo, but it looks just like new.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Bought this grill super exicited to have it. Have not used it yet. Took two hours, a lot of elvbow grease and a bottle of goo off to get the glue from the protective coating off of it. Sticky mess. Finally got it all off and have some scratches as a reminder. Not a great way to start a love affair. Has to be a better solution Weber.

Purchased in 2012 and still going strong. Just going to replace grates and flavorizer bars. I did purchase a cover that has helped maintain appearance. Use at least once a week.

Perfect if there were side cabinets for storage

I purchased this S-470 grill on 04/24/2017 so, a little over 4 years later, my review: Following my own motto... "buy the right one the first time and you'll never have to buy it again" (motto created after buying the cheap ones) I bought this grill because I wanted a grill that was built tough and made to last. After 4+ years, it still works and looks like new and I grill weekly if not more often -- even in the winter when I have to shovel a path to the grill! I just keep it clean and covered when not in use and have had zero problems.
Is it worth the extra $$$$ to buy a Summit grill? Yes! Hands down, the best grill I've ever owned and fully expect it will be a family heirloom after I'm gone - lol.
My only wish is for attached, matching side cabinets so I could store all my grilling accessories. I guess I'll be making my own.

Still Looks Great After 10 Years

I purchased the Weber Summit when we moved into our new home in 2012. It sits under a covered deck and only gets wet from blowing rain. The grill is used year round and have yet to replace anything. I use a quick connect for propane plumbed through the house, so no tanks to fill. All burners still start first time. Yes, it cost a lot but worth every penny.

Great grill but have a few issues. Not perfect

I wanted to use the grill a few times before writing this review. The grill is awesome and I do not experience the flame ups normally experienced on the Weber Genesis. I really enjoy the smoke box. The grill cooks very well and my family has commented on how the food tastes a bit better. It is much easier to control the heat on this grill. It is also much easier and faster to clean. There are few items I am disappointed in. Gas valve to left of sear knob is hard to push in when during to light. It also requires the knob to be pulled out after lighting the burner to stop the lighting process. Knob is very rough when turned and does not move as freely as the others. Not sure how to correct this. I travel a lot and have not had time to reach out to your service department. The left door magnet was pushed into the door with just the corner of it still holding the magnet in place but it would not hold the door close. This was corrected by removing the bottom riveted trim panel, removing the magnetic holder from door and reinstalling. Trim panel was reinstalled. Doors are very crooked and could not be aligned with just sliding the doors in the bottom grooves. A washer had to be placed under the right door around the retaining pin to align it to the height of the other door. Both doors had to be slide to the far left to make them look symmetrical.

Control knob lights
on March 8, 2019

I purchased by Weber Summit S-470 a few months at and have used it three times now. Every time I’ve used it it’s been daylight and I have not used the control knob lights. However, after I turn the gas off and come inside the control knob lights come on automatically after an hour or so. I go out and push the black button on the left and turn the lights out and then an hour or two later the lights come back on. I turned them off again before going to bed and when I get up the next morning the lights are on again. So, what am I doing wrong in turning the lights off that I never turned on in the first place.

Hi! We are very sorry to hear about the issue with your lighted control knobs! There should certainly be no issues with your lights. Please be aware your Summit is backed by a generous warranty. We have reached out to you via email to get those lighted control knobs working like they should. Thanks!
