Assembling the grill took a few hours and was a fun project. All the bits and pieces were in the box and everything fit perfectly. The absence of horrible styrofoam packaging was greatly appreciated.
Very well engineered and thought out. Cooks great and looks great. Only thing I would change would be the propane tank area, the walls are flimsy and only held on by plastic snap-in things. I also bought the iGrill 3 add-on, its a game changer!!!
I replaced my old Weber grill (circa 1995) with a Genesis 453 grill. The new lid did not fit correctly but the dealer, Gray's, replaced the entire lid without any hassle. The grill has been flawless. What a joy.
Feels good and quality product. Heats up well. Lights very easily. Initial use has been awesome! Time will tell on long term use. But does have great warranty.
