I love this grill. I use it everyday and everything is cooked to prefection. This is the first grill I have every owned where the thermostat works. The control of the heat is so easy.
This grill began rusting on three separate parts within 3 weeks of purchase and assembly. I followed the instructions in the Weber manual including covering the grill at all times when not in use. When reaching out to Weber about the issue, they claimed that the rust is from being located in a "coastal area" (I'm 6 miles from the beach). But after 3 weeks? I call this either defective or poor quality from Weber.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
