I've had this bbq for about 4 months now and, considering the price, my initial skepticism has grown into a grudging respect. It's a lot of bbq and I'm still becoming accustomed to cooking with it. Love the IR side burner which puts a whole new spin on steaks, burgers etc. The rear IR with rotisserie for roasts and kabobs is amazing as well. Overall solid build and great bbq. Lots of accessories avail. as well to keep things interesting. With a little work I might yet become a master backyard chef !!
