I’ve been all over the map. I own 12 different grills. Thisgrill I picked up slightly used. Price being the major factor. This grill works wonders. It lit fast and easy. Came right up to temp after coals were set to go. Cooked my stuffed Tri Tip like a pro. Weber you have made a friend in me. My performer is living on my deck all year long. This will be my main staple cooker for me and my wife
