In response to your questionnaire Im please with the performance of my new Weber Genesis grill! However, Im quite disappointed with the quality of the component parts. Moldeled plastic enstead of steel & brass. May I prevail on you to have a representative contact me, I need to order replacement parts for my 20 year old Weber charcoal Kettle grill w/gas biquettes lighter

Nice grill upgrade from previously owned Genesis Gold. I like that this one can heat up more - helpful with several foods. However, find it very difficult to retrieve and re-install the propane tank under the grill in the enclosed cabinet. Also, storage is actually limited based on shelve configuration. The wheel stops/brakes don't work either. One final issue is with the price - family purchased it for me for Father's Day; I wouldn't have spent this much for this grill (overpriced) and would have either purchased smaller Weber grill or one from one of the competitors with similar features.

I have always wanted a Weber grill but could not afford the investment. I wish that I had gone ahead and invest years ago! A good friend is still grilling on his fathers old Weber and it is 25+ years old. The investment will pay off in the years you will have this high quality, well built grill. Had one small issue with broken handle spacers but it was addressed quickly by the professionals at Weber! The wide range of accessories and grilling surfaces is amazing and again, all high quality stuff! I'll never own anything but a Weber from here on out and look forward to grilling on this one for years to come.
Consistent heat! Large grilling space, even when you swap out one side for one of their MANY accessories!! Nice sized prep area on the right side, left side houses a burner for pots or pans.
I’ve use both the Pizza Stone and Griddle and have had wonderful success with both! Making everything from scratch pizza and cookies on the stone to breakfast basics (bacon, sausage, eggs) and veggies on the griddle.
Searing station gives you that much needed punch of heat to get a great sear! Steaks are cooked evenly throughout!!
Pretty easy to assemble, I did it on my own, but having two sets of hands would have been more ideal.
I’m looking for many years use out of this bad boy and taking my grilling up a few notches!!
I like the grill but I have to light it manually as the igniter doesn't work. I have contacted Angel in customer service but he seems to think I should repair it myself. I am old and have knee and back problems and can't crawl around under the grill to diagnose and repair it and I don't think I should be expected to. Please let me know your thoughts on the issue.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thank you for your feedback. We are so sorry to learn of your frustration with your Genesis E-435 igniter not working. We expect the ignition system to provide consistent results!
If you are not hearing a clicking noise when you press the igniter button, it is possible that the igniter electrodes that light your burners shifted during shipping or assembly. We recommend checking the end of the burners to confirm each electrode is parallel to the top of the burner.
We also recommend checking the wire connections at your igniter module under the grill.
Please look for our email outreach from our Support team soon. We look forward to helping you get this solved. Thank you!
