I particularly like the large grilling surface and the achievable range of temperatures that allow slow(er) cooking, including by rotisserie (an ad-on), up to high temperature very good for getting a good pizza crust. I could live without the need to turn on gas very slowly, although I understand this is a safety feature. Also, the external gas gauge is a good idea, but is stuck and won't move.

So I bought the Genesis E-435 to replace and expand my options for grilling. I normally grill anywhere between 3-5 times a week all year round. I’ve had it for about 2 months now and I can say that so far it is the best grill I have owned. It was easy to put together with just 1 person. It took me about an hour and half. I usually have to clean my grill roughly every two weeks. The slide out tray under the grill makes this an easy process. Now I do a little extra and I season my grill. I do so by doing an initial burn off and taking it to 450 degrees for 10 minutes the I turn the burners off and remove the grates. I spray everything down with a good coat of high smoke cooking spray while it is still hot. And then I restart the grill and take it back to 450 degrees and let it smoke then I turn it off and let it cool completely. It helps a ton when it comes time to clean. I can scrape everything into the drip tray and then just dump the tray. After my cleanings I repeat the seasoning process. It is by far the easiest grill to clean that I have owned. The grill cooks evenly across the entire surface. The searing side is a blessing and it makes getting diamonds so much easier and faster. The storage cabinet on the left side is great for storing the grates or miscellaneous extras. I just wish it was big enough to store the full size griddle plate in the carrying bag. I would like to see Weber come out with a silicone mat for the right side shelf to lay grilling utensils on that way the surface of the shelf is protected.

I am a longtime user of Weber grills. My last Weber was purchased in 2010 and used almost everyday. I retired that grill and purchased this grill. It's is everything I wanted natural gas, large with many add-on options. So far it has been perfect.

No matter what we try, the grill never gets above 350 degrees. Once we open it to put the meats on, it cools down and had difficulty getting back up to even 350.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Decent grill, but poor instructions for assembly

I've had Weber Genesis natural gas grills in the past and loved them. For this new home, purchased a propane gas Genesis grill to assembly on my own since the store wanted 1-2 weeks to assemble it. The instructions for assembly are pictures only, and very difficult to follow in certain places. It also took several hours to assemble. Overall, the grill works great and looks great. Would have preferred an infrared burner on the side rather than the propane flame, but it still works great.

I was impressed with the quality of the components, particularly how heavy-duty the stainless steel grates are. The side burner works great for cooking with a cast iron pan, and the top rack is very sturdy. The side tables are wide enough to hold all my spatulas and seasoning and whatever else I need for the cook. And the griddle insert is exactly as advertised - heavy and solid, well-seasoned, and heats very evenly across the surface. I am very happy with this purchase!
