For the past 26 years we have only had two Weber stainless grills. We decided to pass our 18-year-old one on to our son and purchase a new four-burner grill for our patio. It was delivered assembled everything looked fine. When we removed the clear plastic protective film the edges which looked like an adhesive would not come off. I contacted Weber and they just said we'll send you a bottle of our Grill cleaner that should take care of it. Well it did not! We tried Weber suggestion and several other non-abrasive cleaners and nothing worked! To pay this kind of money for this Grill I expect to be able to clean it and have it looking brand new. Webber I don't know what you did but you changed something with your stainless steel exterior. I would think twice before getting a stainless grill from Weber.
The grill has ample room to cook for a crowd. A variety of foods can be cooked since there are multiple burners to adjust and the top cooking rack. We have put it to good use in the month we have it and are quite pleased. Construction is sturdy. THe side burner and storage compartment are nice features. We are quite pleased with Genesis S-435 and look forward to much more use.
Love the grill but it won’t light all of the burners with electric start.

Bought this barbecue on a recommendation from a family friend and it did not disappoint . Everything about it has been thought through from the upper rack sear station and main racks great job on this one Weber
Nice grill, big surface. Only used a few times and still figuring out if there are hot spots and how many burners to turn on at a time. Lots of options!!!
