This is my second Broil King. Made in Canada! It has all the features required. Stainless steel  tube burner, a rust proof polymer base that seats the propane tank securely and cast iron grates. You have to follow the instructions and commit to cast iron. Apply cooking oil before the cook and most importantly, some cooking spray afterwards when the grates are still warm but not too hot. It is normal for the 'flavour wave' parts to wear and are easily replaceable. We've had this BBQ for two years, use it year round (Quebec  City) and are very happy with it. Excellent product.
