With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.
You can trust this review, i hope you can try to buy this product and then you know this product good or no. Next time you can make a review for another people.
Impressive....period.
After extensive research and despite less-than-exptected Consumer Reports ratings, I chose to purchase the 2007 Weber Summit S-450 grill. I own a 5-year-old Charbroil that is bowing out and losing heat/smoke when I cook so I wanted a multi-fuctional grill to replace it that would last longer. The Summit S-450 includes a beautiful smoker box with a dedicated burner and a Rotisserie Kit. More importantly, it is a Weber, which means great warranty and customer service and built to last.
When I opened the item with my friends we all salivated at the heavy-duty construction of this grill. The impressive stainless steel was high-grade and the grill was very heavy. No wobbling. It was very easy to set up and took about one hour. Let me say that although I expected this grill to be better than my old, I never thought it would be so impressive in all aspects. Weber thinks about everything when they make a grill. From the heavy gauge stainless steel grates to the high-end...
Great Choice!After much research and reading lots of reviews, we chose this Weber. It is more expensive than others in its category but the high reviews and our past experience with Weber and the warranty helped us make this our choice. We love it so far. We live on top of a hill and one of our concerns was the wind. Well the grill performs superbly! Even on a cold (40 degrees) and windy day, it heated up in less than 10 mintues.
expensive but worth the moneyOur old $250 grill stopped producing much heat and trying to clean the burners some pieces that were just plain solid rust fell off - time for a new one. My wife did some research and pointed to this one, and initially I was positive no grill could be worth that amount of money. However, looking at the grill at a local store, and checking out the cheaper grills at home depot, lowes and sears, as well as reading a *lot* of reviews, we went with the Weber Summit S 450, and we love it. Stainless steel on the inside (especially the grates) means easy cleaning - no worries about putting a scratch in there. Heat distribution is very even, slightly hotter towards the back, but no discernible gradients otherwise (big difference to cheaper models), and that makes grilling sooo much easier and that in turn makes your grilled food usually better. The other thing that contributes to a noticable difference in the food quality is the smoker box - throw some smoke wood pellets in there, and whatever...
