After an initial problem with the assembly instructions, everything went together in about 1.5 hours, only the step putting in the fire box required 2 people. The quality and finishes are the best I've found in a grill. Burn-in was uneventful. The pre-heat is fast, and the cooking is very even and the temperature is easily controlled. An excellent grill
Very nice upgrade from my last weber Genisis. Cook evenly and temperatures are consistent. Sizzle zone is new to me and it does work! Only thing I need to get use to is having to press the igniter for each flame bar on individually. I also learned it is not water proof inside the cabinet.
I made the jump after 8 years of contentment owning the E-310. In fact my E-310–with a upgraded stainless grills is still working great. But I always wanted a side-burner. We do a lot of cooking outdoors. And now that I own this monster, I never have a reason to cook inside! I always thought I was pretty good at grilling, but this unit makes it easier and better. I think it has a lot to do with the size. With a larger volume of space under the lid it’s easier to maintain the perfect temperature. It’s so powerful, I’ve been roasting on the fold-out grates above a lot, and I’ll let the juices fall on the roasted potatoes below. If you’re thinking this is too-much grill, it isn’t. It’s the perfect size for cooking an entire meal—for 2 or for 10!
Great grill. The outside burner never worked from day one. Gas comes through but no spark. I told them at the appliance store about it but they didn;t seem too interested. Just won't use it.

I am very pleased with the features and performance of this grill. Quick to temp and easy to control, I have found it a breeze to get meats and vegetables done the way I want them. The flexibility of the Weber crafted grill inserts and side burner make full-meal prep in one spot my go-to solution to dinner preparation. The storage space for grill inserts and tools is everything it needs to be. The best all-around grill I have owned among many over the years.
