I own a number of Cuisinart products and this one does not disappoints. Feels high quality, sturdy and mobile yet light and transportable. In fact, I use this grill over my large grill because it saves gas due to a more concentrated distribution of heat for my stakes and burger. I actually, do not see the reason to use my larger grill unless I have some guests over as this one is so compact, easier to clean (big deal) and portable from one place to another at the yard/deck.
