I owned a weber 2 burner Genesis for over 10 years that i picked up from the side of the road. (Ikr?) It served me well til the frame rotted and it just wore out. I think it was almost 20 years old. My new genesis is a dream. Still figuring out its hot spots, but can't beat the temp control, grate and ability to cook evenly with no flareups. Worth yhe price
I really enjoy the grill. It works well and was relative easy to assemble.
There is only one thing that I do not like: - The small grid that is added to the top in step 31 keeps falling over / off when I try o clean it (apply pressure in front). - It almost feels as if it was an after thought. - It does not hook onto anything in the back, so when you apply a bit of pressure to the front, it falls into the grid (on top of the main grid). - This is extremely annoying.
For the price of the grill, this is unacceptable.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thank you for your feedback, and for being a Weber fan. We are glad to hear you are enjoying the Genesis E-315 Gas Grill. We are sorry to hear the warming rack keeps falling off. We are here to help. Please look for an outreach email from our Care Team soon. Thank you!
Weber is still very good if it comes to well made grills, but they started to cut corners on how they made them. New Genesis E315 grills don't come with propane tank scale which was standard when I bought my previous one, other than that best grill money can buy in that range.
I bought this grill to replace the Weber Genesis S-330 grill I had for over 12 years! I like how easy it is to fire up and looks very nice. It cooks just like my old Weber, I like the consistency! The shelf space on the grill is ample and I do not miss the burner of the previous grill, as I only used it once in 12 years! I am disappointed in the way the cabinet sides and back do not completely enclose the cabinet, it looks unfinished. Other than that I look forward to 12 years of enjoyment!
Having owned three Weber grills, all from the Genesis series, I can confidently attest to their durability and performance. Our previous Genesis grill lasted nearly twenty years, requiring only occasional part replacements over its lifespan. When it finally came time to upgrade, my wife and I chose another Genesis model, trusting in the brand’s proven reliability. So far, we are very satisfied with our decision and hope this new grill will serve us as well as its predecessor. The consistent quality and longevity of Weber’s Genesis series make it a worthwhile investment for anyone seeking a dependable outdoor grill.
Love this grill. It has everything I need. It cooks beef, chicken, quail --everything very consistently from the front of the grill to the back of the grill the heat distribution is fantastic.
