This is my 3rd grill in less than 5 years, that last grill started needing replacement parts at about year two.

: I'm thinking... it may cost more up front, but long term savings and a way better grilling experience will more than make up for it. You can imagine my surprise when I brought up, "Honey, we need a new grill and I think we should get a Weber" with my SO. I told him how much it would cost and and he didn't flinch at all. I looked at him surprised and he quoted my mother (who passed away in '99 so he never met her).
She had a bunch of one liners when it came to making personal or household purchases. She used to say, "Get the best, or don't get it at all. If you don't get the best, you'll find out shortly, that the cheaper product was a waste of money and you'll have to replace it anyway. If you can't afford the best, be patient and save until you can. You'll find out that it was worth it and a savings in the long run."

There's no beating Mom wisdom.
The new grill and the one it replaced. Good riddance!!
