I I have had my natural Gas 470 grill for over a year now. This is my 4th Weber, not because they wore out, I just kept upgrading, sold the previous ones which are still working. I still have my Q series for tailgating. There is nothing I can't do with this grill including smoking. I live in Indiana and use it all year round. Definitely worth the money and have suggested Weber to Friends who are also happy with theirs." Best Grill Known to Mankind"
