We rarely BBQ for more than 6 people so this unit is perfect for our use. 90% of the time it's just the two of us. The unit was easy to assemble. Took me 90 minutes and I read and used their instructions step by step. Yes, after using 25+ times the ignition switch still works. You will need to clean the inside of the unit every 10 times you use. The best BBQ for the money I've ever purchased. I will never again spend the big bucks until someone gives a warranty of real confidence. Like my recliner, prefer to purchase a new one every 4 years.
