Questionable quality
By Allen from Edmonton, AB on 10/5/2009
Pros:
Easy To Use
Cons:
Missing hardware, Poor customer support, Substandard materials
Best Uses:
For Self/Couple, Small Gatherings
Describe Yourself:
Occasional Griller
How long have you owned it:
More than six months
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Primarily used for grilling for 2. Worked well for groups of up to 7.
Stainless Steel lid was rusting within 6 months despite the use of a breathing cover.

When I called to have them provide the missing hardware I was told that the model was too new for them to have replacement parts in stock and that I should find the parts locally.

So far the grilling parts are still working but based on the poor attitude of the customer service person, the deterioration of the non grilling part and the lack of replacement parts I expect that this grill will have a short life expectancy.
