They look to be well built and worth a little extra but are they really worth what they cost?

Price a Lynx grill and then tell me that Weber is expensive.

The Weber Q series are 100% worth the money. Best grill I've ever owned.

Yes and it's not close. I've had a Weber Genesis for about 10 yrs and it's idiot proof.

I'll say this, I received the smaller werner (q-something) and I really like it. I wasn't very enthused about it, because I have a larger gas grill that has been fine.

But the Werner has been great. Especially when I am just grilling a few steaks for my wife and maybe a couple of friends.

Yes. They will last for years and years.

Im not comparing these with smoker grills, just other typical propane grills.

I think so. My Smokey Mountain looks like it did the day I got it 4-5 years ago, and I keep it outside (under the weber cover).

I don't have a Weber, so I'm not familiar with them. I can absolutely recommend Kalamazoo grills though. All of my outdoor appliances are made by them and I'm pleased with them.

I have a Weber charcoal that I love, but recently got this for propane on Amazon for $350 for quick stuff that I don't have to wait to heat coals up for. It's pretty nice for the money. And yea I looked at Weber gas grills and they were $700+

I was going to pretty much start this exact thread today. I was looking at grills over the weekend. The Webers seem very sturdy....WAY more than the old Char-grill I had that rusted out in the back of the cook box. I was looking at one at Home Depot and some guy that just walked in the store stopped to tell me how much he liked them. The cook box is pretty thick, very solid. I like that a lot.

I see several people mentioned they have the Genesis, anyone with experience with the Spirit series? They aren't as solid (plastic handles and a few other things), but they're a little cheaper and smaller. I don't need anything huge.

I was looking at the Spirit E310:




But I'm also considering a Genesis E310

I'm on my 2nd Summit Series. My neighbor still uses my first. You can't beat Webers customer service. I had my first grill for well over 6 years when I noticed heavy rusting in the shell/bucket (or whatever it's called). Weber essentially replaced all but the stand of the grill without taking a dime. I've even called them to buy replacement burners with credit card in hand & they wouldn't take money for them.

I have a Charbroil Commercial, and I like it. Has held up very well. I didn't have Weber money at the time.

Let me say that you can buy replacement parts for every single item down to plastic nut shrouds for a Weber grill. Their serviceability is unmatched.

I got a $99 2 burner CharBroil grill for a housewarming present 3 years ago and it is still working beautifully. I need to upgrade to a 4 burner now that I am grilling for more than just myself, however, the point is if you keep care of your grills there is no point in overpaying
