After 8 months this grill is still like brand new. 
I have done amaizing things with it... from pizza (using Weber pizza stone and apple wood) to pork butts, ribeye roast, charred corn, breads, etc.
This grill is very convenient, it has all
You need from a space standpoint... pre table, compartment to storage charcoal bag, storage underneat for any extra tool, and the grill space is just perfect. Not to mention that it holds temperature very well...
For those like me that are not sure about charcoal vs. gas, please give it a try. With the Weber chimney you can have your grill at 400F and ready to grill in less than 10 minute.
Overall: Weber grills are not cheap, but you get for what you pay. By now my cheap gas grill would be all rusty and loosed.
Thanks,
