Grille is constructed with heavy gauge metals and well designed. The three burners provide for excellent heat distribution, bottom of firebox is easier to clean because 2 trays can be removed from rear. Hood is 2 parts: external cover and a heat shield inside so it does not get excessively hot. Wheels are large and 2 have locks.Permasteel gave excellent service when I reported a problem with the hood making notice while closing. They quickly sent a whole new hood without charge.Very pleased that I bought this grille based on Consumer Reports testing.
