It’s a nice sturdy grill I do have a few concerns. The handle gets very very hot. I am going to have to order the velcro handlebar grips because I can only hold the handle for a few seconds The lid is very heavy so you need to hold stainless handle. It’s hot I wish I would’ve realized that the wheels are on the right, since I’m right handed it’s difficult to move the grill around to the corner . I wish the wheels were on the left so I could pick up and move it from the right like my previous Spirit I bought back in 2010. Lasted 14 yrs with minimal issues or repairs. It was also a lot lighter. Overall this is an awesome investment.
I love my new grill! I live in a condo, state mandates require gas grills be used 10ft from building. the size and weight make is easy for me to move when I want to grill. It looks small but the grilling surface allows me to cook a quite a lot of food.
We replaced our 12 year old Spirit grill with this model. Some things changed that we didn't know like the gauge to check for tank emptiness and no match holder. We were not happy that the paint was peeled off the grill pan and have asked for a warranty replacement.

Does not get hot enough to sear a steak!

Bought this grill last month and used it today for the first time. What a disappointment. Grill doesn't get hot enough to sear a steak. Used my heat gun and the grill was 500F directly above the burner and the ends of the grill varied between 300-400F. What a waste of money.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Your feedback is very important to us. We are sorry to hear you are experiencing uneven heat with the grill. We know how disappointing this can be, and we want to make this right. Please look for an outreach email from our Care Team soon. Thank you!
I love this grill. I sold my original Weber grill to buy a pellet smoker and that was a mistake. I bought my new Spirit grill and have zero regrets. I plan on buying a Weber Kettle next.
