Out of the box, the quality was not what Weber is known for.  NO damage to box, but the lid was bent not allowing you to spin it or take it off without holding the bottom of the grill, the lid vent had very sharp edges on it that immediately scratched the lid down to bare metal when opening or closing it.  Weber sent out a new lid and vent that day and the replacements were perfect, but the vent only after I filed down the edges.  Perfect size, you can use minimal charcoal and the airflow is amazing.  I use it 2-4 times a week and it is the best charcoal grill from Weber I have used.  I am estimating getting 24 uses out of a "9 use" charcoal bag.
