How does this grill compare in quality to a Weber Genesis? I know Genesis is not built-in, but the Summit is too expensive.

I have the grill for a year already no complaints reaches 700 degreees in minutes and cooks evenly

Customers have been extremely happy with the quality of the unit and the heat range...not sure exact specs versus Weber. It is extremely well built

Best quality among all I have owned. Get the infrared unit and rotissary. The cooking lid is double walled stainless. All the guts are stainless. Really brag about it.

I cannot do a comparison for you - but we are using this grill and find that it performs as stated in the ads; warms quickly and cooks perfectly. It is so sturdy and well made that we are well pleased with our purchase. No buyers remorse here. Hope this helps you. ELF

The Napoleon is a much better grill than the Weber. My neighbor has the Weber Genesis and even he says he wished he had bought the Napoleon! The built-in infrared unit is remarkable! Also very easy to clean!

Cleaning the Weber is pretty easy... Because of the removable grease tray clean up is fast. I use a wire brush to clean the top grill. I clean it after each use so that it is always ready. I love my grill soooo much. It is beautiful and I receive compliments ever single time someone sees it. Great grill.....

Yes, this motor will directly fit the Summit series of Grills. Weber uses a 3" slide on as does this motor, and the drive size is 5/16" square.

The flavorizer bars are the same. My guess would be that the burners are also. The grates are stainless but I actually preferred the cast iron grates which you can buy as an option. Much better for searing and grilling. The only real difference as far as I can tell is that the cover and two side trays are stainless. Stainless is really more "cosmetic." I know that my painted Weber Genesis lasted for over 25 years and was still going strong when I gave it to my niece. I had replaced the flavorizor bars and grates and replaced the ignitor once.

Sorry, Debbey. I just don't know anything about a Q200. I have a Weber Summit and it works beautifully.

Couldn't locate my Genesis booklet, but I did find my last Weber Spirit grill booklet. Inside there were three Weber-Stephen Products facilities. Customer Service is in Schaumburg, IL. Registration is in Burlington, ON(Ontario- I'm guessing, because on my sticker for the Genesis, it stated USA/CAN/MEX) Last Weber-Stephen Product facility is in Mexico. Doesn't state anything like the above. Grills could be made and assembled in Mexico. Hope this is helpful.

Jessie: I know of no Weber grill that includes a cover. As I have done for every Weber grill I've purchased over the last 4 decades (only a few), I purchased a respective Weber cover. When I ordered my new Summit just a couple of years ago, I also added a Weber-brand cover in the order. Don't know what's going on, but my Summit grill cover (from Weber) didn't even last a year before UV and other weather exposures rendered it virtually useless, with holes and brittle vinyl surfaces. My older Weber brand grill covers had typically lasted 3-5 years before requiring replacement. Weber's Summit grill is fantastic. Beware their latest covers.

I don't know how they compare but my husband is very pleased with this grill. It seems to be very sturdy and works great. Good size for food for 2-3 people.

We've not had any experience w/ the platinum model, but are very pleased with the silver, grills perfectly as all weber's do!

I use mine about 50 to 75 times year round for the past 3 years - not one problem with the grill. At this point, I am actually surprised how much more durable it has been than any other charcoal or propane grill I have used in the past. I have heard, but not experienced, the heating element (only used for the first 3 minutes of startup) does burn out and needs to be replaced. When I purchased my grill I purchased a spare heating/starter element just-in-case. I have not needed it to date. This has proven to be my finest grill purchase, I'm now a big fan of Traeger.

I had to order mine through Ace Hardware the first time. The second time I purchased a different Grill from a different manufacturer. I would suggest you consider purchasing a different grill. I know they are not cheap, but at this point I believe Weber is riding on what used to be a good product brand name. Not Anymore. Good Luck and if you repair it, plan on continued repairs. Be happy if you get two to three years out of the replacement burners.

I had a weber charcoal smoker and it didn't last. This smoker is worth it, and propane is much easier. If u know what your doing, then flavor should not be an issue. Temperature is easy to control with this smoker.

I bought it for my sister to cover her Genesis S-210 grill. I didn't want to spend the ridiculous amount of $$$ on the Weber brand name cover but also didn't want a cheap piece of crap either. This cover seem to split the difference. I put it on my self and even with the wings of the S-210 out... there was still a little room left over. Since the width of the 200/300 grills are pretty much the same at 60" you should have no problem fitting it to the S-310. The cover seems to be in great shape still at her place and I was happy with the quality so far for the price point. I hope this helps I bought it for my sister to cover her Genesis S-210 grill.

Weber's website says it's 38,000. I'd trust that source more than HD. See: http://weber.com/grills/series/genesis/genesis-e-330

I have the Summit Platinum Grill with 6 burners and the side burner and the cover I ordered fit perfectly. It has lasted a long time but I didn't lock it down well enough and it blew away. The design is fine I just didn't put the wind straps back in place. I'll be ordering another cover now that you asked the question and I'll get the same one from Amazon. Enjoy!

I have a Weber Summit and had to order the x-large size. A little big but not to much--really makes it easier to put on. I sent you a quote of a review I found at Classic Accessories.com of someone who had a Weber Genesis grill that bought a medium which he stated fit just right. I do not know about it any more than that.
