I have Kamado style grill now (like the big green egg). It's good and will do anything - much better for smoking than a Weber. But it has all the disadvantages of any other charcoal grill. Sometime I just want to start the grill and cook 5 minutes later. So while I use it and it does more... overall I'd be better off with a Weber.

The fire on the inside was from grease...just use a small metal scraper to clean every once in a while.
Stay away from Nexgril and Char-Broil...at best these are 2-3 season grills.
If you can't spend on a Weber, like me, well, I bought a Broil King at Lowes - Shop Broil King Baron 440 Black 4-Burner Liquid Propane Gas Grill with 1 Side Burner at Lowes.com
I got it on sale for around $400 or so 3 years ago. Stainless steel parts, double layer hood. Only down side I've encountered is with really high heat (mine gets up to 600 degrees easily) and high fat meats, I can get flare-ups if I don't manage the heating well. Broil King also has a very good warranty - Broil King Help - Broil King Barbecue Grill Warranty

I really do like the Weber's. I am not cheap by any means but the Weber's are half the size and double the money compared to most of the market. But I do like the Genesis E-310, it seems like a quality product and has a smaller footprint then my current grill. This is a big plus as I want something smaller, I store all my outdoor cooking gear in the garage.
I am just looking for something to do basic grill duties. I have a Smoke Hollow smoker for the smoke action.

Jmak- Do both side shelfs on the Broil King fold down?
edit- I just looked again and it has a side burner.

I will say however, Weber Gas Grills cost more, but they are absolutely worth it. My wife bought my Genesis model nearly 15 years ago for me as a birthday present and it's like brand new still. Finish on it is light years above others and rivals a car. The burners have never been replaced and I just last week cleaned it out entirely and they are still like brand new. The igniter is the original and works flawlessly. The only replacement I've done are the flavor rails that cover the burner. They are porcelin coated of course, but they do deteriorate and I replaced them perhaps 5 years ago? Still, worth every penny. I'm not at all "cheap" but I don't overpay if I don't have to but will state again, they are the best out there and for solid reasons.
I want to upgrade to a larger 4 burner or more one and have no problem paying a pretty penny for the new one. The problem is I'm cheap and don't want to sell my old one for a deal given it's condition.

I’d love to hear your review of the SunJoe. I really like that style with all the features. I didn’t know SunJoe had anything in that style. Thanks for sharing and congrats on the cool new detailing gadget!

I’ve had my Weber for 20 years so far. Still works great. I love that the older ones have 2 sets of flavorizer bars. I have replaced the starter button and upgraded the grates to stainless. Other than that it is still going strong.
