Message: [QUOTE="Hoophound, post: 3915255, member: 271"] Broil King is good as well. They are very durable and worth a look. I would buy another one. I had a Weber 320——or whatever it is and it corroded fairly quickly. I initially bought it with the intent of moving it to my second home but I never got around to it. It just wasn’t cut out for this climate. The Genesis had better grade metal per a few Yarders. I went with it and so far, so good. Considering my grill gets a lot of South Florida sun and is very close to the beach (salt air), the Genesis is weathering really well. Climate matters. I bought a $150 Charbroil for our place in VT 7 years ago. It has lasted beautifully. It is on a covered porch and just doesn’t take much of a beating other than rain and snow that come in from the side. I need to replace it this summer simply because it is a kind of lousy grill with hot spots. I am considering the Weber Q that Tom posted. It is another small Weber but I think it may be better quality than the 200-300 series. It looks “portable” but it is painted and possibly better protected as a result. I highly advise people skip the $399-$499 cheaper Webers if the grill isn’t going to be protected and pampered. They amaze at first but they won’t last like the ones that cost $200+more. [/QUOTE]
