Over the years I have owned four gas grills, each of which cost 1/4 the cost of this Weber Summit S-470.. We live close to Minneapolis, MN and grill several times a week throughout the winter. from Amazon.com heed the instructions to have a couple of friends to help unpack it... it arrives mostly assembled in a heavy plastic pallet, and must be lifted straight up about six inches to remove the pallet, which really takes 3 people to do. The searing station is a very nice feature, and we have changed the way we cook steaks compared to our old Weber Genesis grill. The flavor and texture of steaks are even better with this grill, which is impressive. from Amazon.com We recently purchased a $1700 piece of steel lawn art. For the past month since its arrival, that's what the Weber Summit S-470 Grill has been in our yard. It arrived via forklift, all 250 lbs. from Amazon.com This is because the TEC version can get down to around 300 degrees, where most other infrared grills have a low temp of only about 500-600 degrees. So, if you only like cooking steaks, then an infrared grill is for you. Otherwise, one of the Fire Magic grills would be a good choice, as you can get both infrared and conventional gas burners, but there is still one drawback to that, over this Weber model. That is, that if you need conventional burners for whatever you are cooking, the grill space over the infrared burner is wasted, and cannot be used for anything else. from Amazon.com I loved that it maintained the heat well enough for me to plan ahead and properly slow-cook and smoke the ribs at 225 and chicken at 350 and sirloin at 375 and sear the ribs when done. I would have never even considered trying that with my old $200 CharBroil grill (everything had a tendency to be burnt on the outside as the open flames in one big U were very hard to control). With the Weber, as long as you properly pre-heat to get the flavorizer bars hot enough before grilling so that the drippings vaporize on contact (adding flavor to your meat) and the thick grill hot enough to singe the meat, it becomes a simple matter to cook your food to perfection. Everyone raved at how moist and tender the ribs and chicken where. from Amazon.com it sure beats the patio caddy i had, up until i got this one. from Amazon.com i ordered the weber grill cover that goes with this grill last week, because i noticed that even under a covered porch, the grill does get pretty dirty. from Amazon.com i loved that it maintained the heat well enough for me to plan ahead and properly slow-cook and smoke the ribs at 225 and chicken at 350 and sirloin at 375 and sear the ribs when done. from Amazon.com it turns out, almost all infrared grills are only good for one thing, cooking steaks, and usually rare to medium rare in taste. from Amazon.com the searing station is a very nice feature, and we have changed the way we cook steaks compared to our old weber genesis grill. from Amazon.com
