I purchased this grill and for the price I paid, I thought it would last longer than it did I grill about 3-4 times a week and this grill rusted out on the bottom so quick.. i was very disappointed in it..Since this grill i have purchased another 5 burner char broil and have had the same problem with the bottom rusting out.. I just wish that the manufactor would build something that would last more than the 2 yrs I get out of a grill. I keep them covered under a covered patio so it is not sitting out in the weather without protection .. great concept but need to reinforce the bottom
