I stopped and looked at some grills today and
one stood out as just about exactly what I was looking for, but it was $650!
I bought this model from a specialty shop, as one person already recommended, with all stainless steel parts inside. This is key because my previous grill did not have stainless parts and the entire interior corroded within a few years. Over time the graudal rusting causes hot and cold spots, is more difficult to clean, and in the end, the cost of replacing all the rotten parts with quality new ones did not make economic sense to me. Personally, I'd rather apply that $ towards a better, higher quality new one that will last longer.
My father has a Weber Genesis he purchased 8 years ago and it's still running strong.
I've had the new one for 3 months now and am happy as a clam, steak, burger, lamb.......
