WE HAVE WANTED A WEBER GENESIS GRILL FOR YEARS. WE SPENT 11 YEARS ON THE ROAD IN A MOTOR HOME CONSULTING ALL OVER THE COUNTRY. WE USED A WEBER Q DURING THAT TIME. NOW THAT WE ARE STATIONARY, WE HAVE ALWAYS WANTED THE GENESIS. BE HAVE BEEN SAVING FOR THIS DAY. WE LOVE OUR NEW GENESIS & LOOK FORWARD TO MANY YEARS OF ENJOYABLE GRILLING.

Cooks as good as propane grill will.
Don’t hold smoke well ,but can smoke in it.
Works like it should when using the rotisserie and holds very good temp. Some assembly required.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Really like the side storage drawer. The folding top rack is great. I’m really happy I “needed” a new bbq! So far the food had been cooked like it’s supposed to be.

Great looking grill. Very big cooking area. The storage is nice also. I wish when I click the igniter and turn on the first knob, all I would have to do is turn the knobs for the other 4 to get them on. Instead you have to click the igniter for each one of them. This is an upgrade to my older Weber grill so I am enjoying the spacious cooking area.

This grill is an absolute BEAST!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love my Weber GENESIS S-435 Gas Grill! You can grill, bake and even stir fry. The side burner is a handy feature that I love. I’m also amazed that you could also use the grill as a rotisserie with the added height of the lid. I really like the extra large side table. I actually have more prep space outside on the grill than inside the house. I love the added storage space on the side and underneath the grill. I’m blown away by the sear zone. I could never sear my meat quite right before. Now I get flavorful restaurant quality seared meat every time. I have so much cooking space on this grill with the expandable top cooking grate and side burner. Very easy to assemble. I highly recommend downloading the BILT app on your phone. The BILT app really helps with assembly instructions. Very high quality brand that makes high quality products. You can purchase additional Weber accessories to really make this grill even more versatile. Definitely worth the money. I’m highly impressed with this grill and the endless cooking possibilities.

Incredible in every way!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had pretty high expectations for this grill…I have a co worker who sings the praises of this Weber Genesis, an older model he has had for years and continually gushes about. He is an avid grillsman, so we knew the Genesis S-435 would probably suit our needs as well, but even so, we were blown away at how well this grill performs, all the details that make outdoor cooking simpler, and how this thing is built to last, and last, and last.
It arrived in perfect condition, in a quite heavy box, filled with smaller, well marked boxes that once removed, made moving the large box doable between my husband and I. Using the included booklet, but mostly the BILT app, it took my husband a bit over 2 hours to construct. The app is great, using motion and the ability to rotate to see every quarter, it makes all instructions clear. Had I, or anyone given him more of a hand, it would’ve gone much faster, but he was pretty excited and didn’t want to wait on help.
The Weber Genesis is built with heavy duty components, and I have no doubt about how long it will hold up. The grates and the flame covers are thick and dense, and won’t rust away for a very long time…a problem that lesser grills certainly struggle with, even with regular maintenance and constant cover from the weather.
The temperature gauge is large and accurate, and the grill maintains steady, constant heat, and doesn’t lose an undo amount when opening to check your food.
I love that it has a gauge on the outside the measures how much propane you have, so you are never caught flatfooted mid-cook, which is an absolute disaster, especially when entertaining guests. It uses weight to determine how much LP you have, so it isn’t an exact measure, but it’s close enough to alert you when you should fill up.
There are hooks aplenty, so finding a place to hang tools, accessories or rags won’t be an issue. The cabinet beneath is large enough for your propane tank, the burn off and grease collection system, and room to spare for other accessories. Too, there is a side compartment that is quite tall and deep (I’ve included a photo with a soda can for scale), which is great for anything, but in particular the Weber Veggie Basket and Pizza Stone, which I’ll review soon. There is also a small basket for smaller items attached to the door, which I use to hold a flashlight for cooking at twilight.
The wheels spin smoothly, and can be locked in place. The grill is well balanced and level.
Lastly and most important, how does it cook? Excellently. I get a more consistent cook using the Weber than I’ve had with any other grill. On those lesser models, I’ve had to rotate my meats across the grates to circumvent hot and cool spots, but using the Genesis means I don’t have to babysit our dinner. Using the temperature gauge, and the consistency of the Genesis’ heat, I have been rewarded with perfectly cooked meals (perfectly cooked by the grill, not accounting for user error, to which my husband and I are prone).
Too, using the Sear Zone, I can lock in the flavor before moving our foods it to a a more moderate side of the grilling surface. The side burner works excellently, and the grill itself doesn’t have to be on to use it, which is a plus since this isn’t always the case.
Lighting the grill has been flawless…you do have to use the “ignite” button on each knob you want to turn on, which is a feature I like but was unfamiliar with.
As you can see, we are incredibly happy with the Weber S-435, and I’m already shopping for more accessories on their website. Next up for me is the smart cooking device, which I’m excited to get my hands on. We are completely satisfied, and recommend without reservation!

The Genesis S435 Gas Grill is an Excellent grill.

It is well made, looks great in stainless steel, and is easy to operate. Has some storage which is very nice. Gas tank is not noticeable as it is hidden in the storage area and has a gauge to estimate propane quantity in the tank. Rolls easily and has wheel locks to hold it in place..
Grilling on the S435 IS WONDERFUL as it is the only grill I have used that heats evenly and heats up fast. When you turn your food, on any grill, you loose heat, but this Grill recovers fast.
A good purchase at a fair price.
