This is my second Weber in 5 years. I wanted to go bigger after having a spirit II. So far the grill lives up to it's reputation grilling and quality. There are a couple things I would like to see changed...the insert in front of the griddle should be switched to the back not in the front. A lot of heat rises from that while you are grilling and almost necessary to wear a glove because of the heat. ...the drain hole for the grease cleanup should be bigger by at least half and should be in the back of the griddle. The grease drops down on the flavor bar near the igniter. I can see problems here in the future. It makes more sense to have the grease drop in the back of the grill into the aluminum tray. Last you should include a propane gauge for the tank like the one included in my spirit. Because I live in the south I cook on my new Genesis 4-5 times a week. It does a great job with steak, fish, roasts and vegetables. The half griddle is the right size and looking forward to the wok for stir-fry's soon.
I would recommend this to a friend!

It is a great grill, easy to start, plenty of storage space, love the searing option, even cooking . Hope it lasts as long as my last Webber which was about 13 years making it worth the extra cost.
Nice grill but a little overpriced my previous Weber gas grill lasted 15 years and was made a lot better

Replacing a 15-yo propane Weber. From the outside that one still looks new. Had replaced flavor bars a few times and burners once, as can be expected. Other grills are throwaways. Also purchased several accessories which are overpriced, but if the last like the grill, all good.
Low quality, tried putting it together and the manifold wouldn’t line up with the metal face plate so the knobs were impossible to put on. Weber then wanted me to put on a new manifold ( no way !). It was also missing the door magnet. The quality is NOT there- clearly. Buy something else for the price.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Genesis S-335 natural gas grill. Very disappointed. For steaks you have to use the sear section from start to finish and it doesn't sear at all, it just cooks the steak. My old Genesis I bought over 30 years ago didn't have a sear section, yet it would sear on high heat anywhere on the grill. Also, we have had one cold spell and the starter button would not work. I guess I'll have to use my Bic to start the grill once it gets cold again. What a waste of money!

We appreciate that you have been a long-time and loyal Weber griller, and we apologize for the frustration with your new grill. We would never expect our grills to perform like that normally, and we are here to help troubleshoot the heat and ignition issue you mentioned.
Temperature and ignition issues are a sign that your new grill might not be correctly adapted to the natural gas line per the instructions in the grill owner's guide. We would like to offer further assistance to improve your experience. Please look for our email outreach soon. Thank you!
This is a solid replacement grill, but it is missing some items I come to expect from ANY Weber grill. The most significant thing is there is no gauge to tell you how much gas you have left, it is only available with the higher level grill and it is a big miss for this grill which is NOT inexpensive.
