Does its job, but has some issues. I bought this because I got one of it on loan from friends and it worked well. Mine has mostly been working well, with 3 problems: 1) I also had this annoying things with grease dripping from the front legs which is a mess, 2) I use stain-less cleaner and unfortunately that removes the black printing with the indicator for the knobs etc. So if one day I don't remember how to turn it on and off, then I will be in trouble, and 3) one of the knobs didn't turn on. It eventually decided to work again, but now I don't trust it 100% anymore. Mine is outside year round in the Pacific Northwest and covered during the winter. I use it for pretty quick things like meat and veggies and like how quickly it turns hot and how it cooks things. I like how it looks and how small it is. I bought a stainless table for it to sit on with the gas tank below, so I like the look of that and it fits perfectly on my covered deck.
