This replaced my old Weber, so it's a step down in quality. But, I don't BBQ much and it really ties into my cute backyard and patio. So, it was more for looks than functionality for me. It does work fine, but is not as sturdy as others I've had, and I don't know how long it will last. Also, I did have to hire someone to put it together and it took about 3 hours. That said, it's perfect for me!
