I bought this BBQ as a replacement for an old one that couldn't keep the heat in and was falling apart.  I hadn't put one together before and was a tad intimidated at the prospect of getting the fittings safe and secure.  I took my time and followed everything to the letter.  Overall an easy process.  I lit up the bbq the first time and went inside to wait for it to heat up.  I came out less than 1/2 the amount of time I used to and it was well above 550 degrees.  Wow!  And the wind was howling straight at it.  I was impressed to say the least.  Our first meal on the Rogue tasted awesome and the side burner worked miracles on the onions.  Can't say enough about the Rogue.  Cost effective, great looking, plenty of BTU's.  This is my second Napoleon and I raved about it so much that my brother purchased a larger version.  He really likes his Napoleon as well.  Great feeling to buy Canadian ingenuity and a great product.  Thanks for a a great grill!!
