We were looking for a compact grill with a searing plate. Being unfamiliar with the Napoleon brand, it was a relief to see that a store we frequented was one of their authorized distributors. They didn’t have this model on their floor, but the quality of the models there was encouraging. Glad we decided to order because it has not disappointed us. The seating burner works perfectly as well as the grill. We have a very small area for barbecuing, this is a quality unit and fits!
