I’ve had this grill for about 20 days, patio set up about 15 days. I’ve grilled 8 of the 15 days. Assembly was fast and easy, and every component was immaculately clean to the touch. The grate design is brilliant: using the juices & fats to vaporize and add a smokiness. And the self clean is amazing. Caution: it WILL throw a good amount of smoke, which means it’s working ideally, cleaning up every bit of goo with good ol’ fi— electricity.
