What I have found so far is this grill is not worth the money paid. For starters the brakes are hard to get to. The rear burner is good when you get it lit. The other burners have hotter sections front to rear. Have not been able to get the rear or side burners to light using the igniter. As far as the side burner goes I had a hard time keeping it lit with a little wind blowing around it. Had to do it manually. At this point I hope it last as long as the warranty allows.

After researching several grills, I decided on a Napoleon. Went to a local dealer to see it in person. Was satisfied with the quality and price point and made my purchase~they also helped loading it in my truck. I’ve used it about 6 times so far, and I’m very happy with its performance. I have a rotisserie on order~excited to use it and the rear burner.
I've been using my new grill for about 2 weeks now and loving it. Excellent searing burner, good even heat over the grilling surface. I would like some explanation for the various holes and notches in the warming rack but that is just me. Haven't used the rotisserie burner yet but hope to get to that this weekend.
Great grill. The back burner really helps it get to high temps fast. Easily up to 700 F. The stainless steel grates are very easy to clean. The lights are great to easily see which burner is on.It looks pretty sleek and high end as well.
