Awesome grill. Large surface area and I was just gifted a rotisserie kit and CRAFTED griddle. Looking forward to trying out those new accessories to roast a bird and to cook potatoes, eggs, pancakes and french toast on the griddle. So far I have used it about a dozen times. I've cleaned the drip tray after a few uses. It was straightforward to remove, clean and re-insert. The porcelain-enameled cast iron grates are great as a non-stick, easy clean surface. The expandable top grate was a game changer when I hosted a backyard BBQ for 20+ people. I could easily fit 2 dozen hot dogs on there while cooking burgers on the main grates. The only issue I have had is a screw hole misalignment on the right side tray, so it is only secured with a single screw at the moment. I will eventually try to brute force the second screw to finish mounting the side tray/table surface. The instructions were unclear about the installation of the struts inside the cabinet. The instruction manual is written for the 3-burner Genesis models with an insert for a couple differences in assembly for the 4-burner Genesis models. The locker is a nice feature but is limited in space and could have been laid out with a more square aspect ratio; it is very deep and narrow which limits is storage utility. Nevertheless, this product has been excellent so far and a pleasure to operate.
After having an older Weber Genesis that’s still performing like new after 15 years, it only made sense to have another one in our new outdoor kitchen area. I was absolutely impressed with the quality of construction while assembling this grill. And the packaging was exceptional. And after a few cooks, I’m equally impressed with the grilling experience. I can’t imagine any other brand being any better.
Starting is not easy multiple times doesn't start on first or second time
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear the grill doesn’t ignite properly. Our Care Team will reach out to ensure this issue has been resolved. Please look for an outreach email from us soon. Thank you!
Exactly what I hoped for! Burners-great! Sear section-great! Ease of light-up…great! And, it looks great, too! :) Oh! Easy cleaning :). My last grill lasted for about 8 years- had issues from day one. Long-term use with this one will tell, but by all indications thus far, this will be the family of grill that will be in our family moving forward.
