I am reading the reviews on these grills and have a similar experience. I would not recommend this product due to the grills.    The 4 grill plates did not last as they RUSTED very quickly even with recommended seasoning.  The replacement grills are very expensive compared to the competitor bbq and the odd size makes it impossible to find generic grill plate.  Therefore forced to make decision to scrap bbq and buy new instead of replacing just the grills.  It is seems that the manufacturer designed the product failure around the grill plate which is normally a maintenance item.  I also already replace the burner tubes once and the igniter twice.  My original opinion was that Broil King was a premium product but after the experience with the grill plates, burner and igniter I would not recommend Broil King as a top end bbq
