I bought this grill to replace my 2007 Genesis grill.  My old grill was still working well and I sold the old grill. I was just ready for a new grill.  This new Genesis has not been a disappointment.  It works extremely well, I just love the griddle and grilling basket.  The side cabinet works well for storing all my accessories. If I get he same longevity from this grill as I got from my last Genesis I will be thrilled. It cooks very evenly it's easy to adjust temperature and the sear station is great,  Overall I love my new grill.
