The grill itself works fine, however the plastic wheels are inferior. Mine broke with minor lateral movements. Should have metal wheel at least. Weber did send new ones. ( plastic) The grill should include a cover. I had to buy an aftermarket one.

Hi! We greatly appreciate you taking the time to provide your feedback on the Genesis II S-435. We are so sorry to learn of the wheels breaking off. We are happy to hear one of our reps sent new wheels. A member of our team has also reached out via email to see if we can assist you any further. Thank you!
This grill is nothing short of amazing. Easy to assemble works great and is just beautiful to look at. This replaces my last Weber grill purchased in 1997. Great product great quality and still made in the USA!!!!
I have the Genesis II in the Copper color. I purchased it 2 years ago. Last year I called about the flames getting extremely high. It got so hot that the cook box needed to be replaced because it bent it. I replaced the new cook box and then had issues with the flame not getting high enough. It's hard because they want to mail you everything to fix yourself. It took a long time to have the cook box shipped and now the same thing is happening. The flame gets extremely high. I clean the grill after every use. There was no meat inside. We turned it on and left it on for 5 minutes while we got the meat to put on from the kitchen and when we came back out the handle was hot and when we opened it the flames were really high. We immediately turned off switches and turned off the gas and undid the gas line and had to use the water hose to put out the flames. I own 3 weber grills and will not purchase again if all I get are parts and hopes that it will work properly.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
