I purchased our Q1400 Grill in September 2018. I have been grilling for the better part of 30 plus years, using propane, charcoal, and electric. If you are looking for the ideal grill I can assure you that you won't have any regrets after spending your hard earned dollars on the Weber Q1400 . Followed the enclosed instructions which come with your grill or on the Weber web site, and you will never have to throw away another morsel of food " as long as you both shall live ".
