One of those few purchases that wows you on the first use. Fun to assemble with the Bilt app, yes fun. Heat up quickly. Cooking surface is huge and even. Cast iron grills leave grill marks and are pretty stick free.
I would recommend this to a friend!

We grill year-round (even when it's snowing) and love this grill. It was a replacement for an old Weber Spirit that served us well for many years but could no longer be saved regardless of how many replacement parts we threw at it. I agree with some other reviews that it would be nice to have the hanging gauge to help estimate the level of remaining fuel but as long as you keep an extra tank on hand it's no big deal.
I assembled it myself and the only painful part was one of the very first steps to get the bottom shelf to align and fit correctly, otherwise everything went smoothly using the printed instructions and available app.
Very pleased that the flavorizer triangular bars and other inserts are stainless steel, and the burners are impressive and a big improvement over the Spirit model. Also, the design of the slide-out drip tray makes cleaning much easier. And we always prefer coated cast iron cooking grates to wire racks so that's just another plus.
We don't miss having a side burner (we only used it once during a superstorm Sandy power outage) and don't think a sear station is necessary since this grill gets very hot.
Would definitely recommend it as a superior, basic grill with more than adequate grilling surface area if it's within your budget. You will not be disappointed!

I expected for the price I paid, the grill would have a tank gauge indicating the level of gas used. My previous, less expensive, Weber grills (2) had this feature. Otherwise, it's a good grill, but pricey.

This is my second Weber. The first was the Q bbq. We had that for years and it never let us down. It was time to replace so we decided to go large. This Gensis we purchased is outstanding. The quality and build is solid. Very impressive and cooks like a professional should. My son does most of the cooking and loves it. He cooks at night sometimes so I got him the Weber handle light (a definite add on to consider). Very happy and know this will last me years. Thanks, Peter.

This is my second time buying this BBQ. First one was a NG model that I had to leave when moving as my new home didn’t have NG and Weber doesn’t have a Propane conversion for their BBQ’s. Regardless, I’d buy a third if needed as this is my forever BBQ. Build was easy, and all the components are quality and fit together very well. Once assembled and after an initial burn off we bbq’d up some New York strips and they turned out fantastic. Had some dripping and some brief flare ups but with the drip tray design they extinguish quickly. Heat is very uniform over the entire grill area and precisely controlled whether you’re slow cooking or putting on a nice sear. Spend the extra for this BBQ and you will not be disappointed.

We had our previous Genesis grill for 10 years, so it was a no brainer. We dropped the side burner because we rarely used it. Also, dropped the sear station for same reason. Easy set up due to well engineered parts. I didn't realize it had no way to gage remaining gas in tank, a poor choice by Weber. ( I was able to use the old one). Otherwise, looks like some other less noticeable improvements make it, in my opinion, the best grill for the money.

Not up to the standard of my original 315. No shelf underneath, a little flimsier. Mounting the propane tank is a real challenge for someone like me with a bad back. I preferred the tank mount on the earlier version which was mounted underneath the shelf outside the cabinet. No propane scale. I have to disconnect the tank to estimate how much propane remains. I guess I'll have to keep a full spare tank on hand to avoid running out during a grilling session. On the positive side, I like the construction of the lid. The cast iron grates are great.

I have always wanted to own a Weber Genesis. I bought this E-15 on sale and couldn't be happier with it. Easy to assemble and it appears to be of high quality. It gets hot fast. Gives even heat. What can I say, I just love it.
