Bought this to replace an old natural gas fueled Ducane when we moved to a LPG home.  Bought and installed the bulk propane conversion (easy!)  Was a little hesitant going from a ceramic-type grill to a direct flame grill, but this is working well and heats up much faster.  Only hesitation is that the handle is hotter than I'd like, but using a silicone glove it's not an issue.  Corrosion resistance of the aluminum body was important to me.
