You have $600 for a gas grill...

[MissionMan]

Not $600.01... strict $600 or below budget. I really want a weber but i feel like im not getting much grill for the money. I dont want a tiny grill because we entertain and i cook stuff for work lunches ahead of time. I also use it year round.

priorities?
#1 - quality and durability, i want it to last. also would be nice to be repairable or be from a manufacturer that sells parts to replace/fix.

#2 - cooking quality, I hate having hot spots and cold spots all over the grill.


I had a walmart fake stainless $150 grill I made last over 5.5years by cleaning it and covering it at all times. I want 10-15 years from my next grill...minimum.

Can I do it for $600 or should I save a bit more?

I say build your own grill/smoker out of some bricks and an old 55gallon drum. Later, you can build a bar around it if you wanted to.

I'd save another $200 and buy this one:

Amazon.com: Weber Genesis 6531001 E-330 637-Square-Inch 38,000-BTU Liquid-Propane Gas Grill, Black: Patio, Lawn & Garden

With proper care that thing should last a ridiculous amount of time.

SID my pops just bought that one in the copper color, it is absolutely awesome. His has stainless grates though. Definitely a nice grill.

Get the weber. Nothing lasts even close to as long.

Skip the gas and save up for a Big Green Egg. You thank me later.

I'd much rather have the cast iron grates.

I spend $200 or so & pocket the rest. My $200 gas grill is still kicking.

I have a duel fuel grill, one side is charcoal and the other gas.

As most have already said, get a Weber. They have something like a 10 year warranty.

This.

I love to grill...going 2 years on a Weber Genesis now. Our old Weber lasted us almost 10 years before we gave it to a friend and its still going strong today. Tried Kenmore once, never again. Weber all the way.

I have the Weber Genesis with sear station. I got it off Amazon last year using my Amazon store card, so it was 12 months interest free.

The grill is amazing. Simply out. It actually creates enough heat to sear meats to perfection and the build quality is 2nd to none. That's why it weighs something like 200lbs.

You said not $601. But does 12 months interest free count for anything?

Smart move. I've had one for five years. I also have two Weber kettles and a Weber gas, and the only thing I use is the Big Green Egg.

I've been very happy with my Charboil Infrared. I got mine at Lowe's, but here's a link for it at Wal-Mart.

i got a weber genesis without the sear station for around $600 in Feb last year and love it. It cooks very evenly and no issues thus far. It stays on my screened in porch with a cover on it when not in use, we use it 3-4 nights a week on average.

if you look around you can sign up that youve moved and lowes will send you coupons for 10% off your entire purchase, used it on the grill, cover and new brush.

I just got a webber genesis s-330 and its pretty amazing. I'd say save up money and get something that's worth it. You get what you pay for.
