I have owned this model before and the build quality as well as materials have really become poor. My previous one lasted over 12 years without issue. I am afraid this one will not make it that long. Also when using the lid handle gets so hot you need an oven mitt. It will do the job, but I am disappointed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

My first weber gas grill.It has not disappointed. The grill fires up easily and is great to cook on.I love the way the steaks and burgers look during to grilling process.Food has never tasted better on a grill.Thanks Weber!
Love the grill, EXCEPT the design is such that i find it very difficult to open the front door and reach in to turn the gas tank valve open. It is worse when the grill is hot after grilling to turn the knob off without burning my arm. The old design allowed one to access the knob from the side of the enclosure. I now pull the grill out to access the tank knob from the rear without a door obstructing my arm

We appreciate your feedback. So sorry to hear you are having an issue reaching in to open and close the propane tank. We will be sure to share your comments with our team. If you prefer to access the tank from the back of the grill that is also okay. Our Care team will reach out to follow up. Thank you!
We bought this same model in 2012. It lasted 13 years with little maintenance. We loved it, so we bought this same one again. The drop in quality is terrible! The previous one was all stainless steel, the trays dropped down in this model, there was a tank scale, there were 4 locking wheels, and there was a back panel (why is the back panel gone?). Not to mention that the grill grates were thicker, better quality and fit without sliding around. Very disappointed, no way this one will last 13 years.
