(More customer
reviews)It is now May 28, 2010. I Purchased this grill
(2) years ago.... I figure it only gets about (3) months or so a
year of use before being packed away for the season, so the grill
has seen approx 6 months of use over my 2 years of ownership. When
I went to use it for my 3rd season the unit was totally unusable.
RUSTED TOTALLY THROUGH!!!.
I contacted the manufacturer, LANDMANN USA, sent them photos
detailing the damage, advising them the unit was always kept
covered as well including pictures of the cover on the unit showing
how it actually molded itself to the unit from being covered so
much. Rather than trying to resolve this situation,they put me
through numerous voice mails, promised to return calls and never
did and finally accused me of keeping the unit exposed to the
elements, not maintaining the grill and it rusting away was all my
fault. They actually accused me and are trying to pass off their
choice to use poor quality materials in making this grill as if it
were my fault the unit rusted away.
Contact Me, I will be happy to provide you copies of our back &
forth correspondence if there's any doubt.
The grill is a piece of _______! They claim to use "Heavy Duty
Steel", at who's standards?... yea if you compare the wall
thickness to aluminum foil. My unit actually has rust holes in the
Ash Tray & Side Walls.
I feel I'm fair, I give honest reviews. I've given this
manufacturer every opportunity to resolve this issue and restore my
confidence in their company and they flat out would rather accuse
me of not caring for my belongings while I can prove otherwise.
At this point I have contacted the Georgia State Department Of
Consumer Affairs and have registered a complaint against Landmann
USA.
Unless they make a better effort to show how good of a company they
are and stand behind their products, I would not recommend this
grill.
It's up to them.

Silver B with cast-iron grates. After 10 years of frequent use, I
was looking for something with more flexibility and capacity. I
also had grown tired of the rust issues with the cast iron grates
(yes, I know about 'seasoning'), but wanted to retain the high heat
advantages that cast iron offers. The Summit S-470 has more than
met my expectations. If you plan to feed a small army, consider the
600-series, but for most backyard uses the 400-series has *plenty*
of usable grill area.
Key advantages:
* High-quality stainless construction. Unlike the lower-cost Weber
grills and virtually *all* of the competitive alternatives, the
Summit grills are made mostly of 304-grade stainless steel. This
has much higher nickel content, and as a result is substantially
more corrosion resistant (and more expensive). The easiest way to
identify cheap stainless is that it is magnetic (so take a magnet
when you compare grills). Improved corrosion resistance means that
the exterior will remain beautiful for years, and the grates will
last indefinitely.
* 7 independent burners on the S-470 (in addition to the side
burner). Four main burners, one searing burner, one burner for the
built-in stainless smoke box, and one infrared burner on the rear
cover. All except the infrared burner run front-to-back. With most
of them active, the grill reaches >700 degrees F in ten minutes.
This provides incredible flexibility. Extremely high direct heat,
completely indirect heat, crispy skin on rotisserie, lots of smoke
at low heat, only part of the grill at high heat, etc... - no
problem. You are limited only by your imagination, not your
tools.
* Extremely thick (9.5mm) grates provide excellent searing and heat
retention. These work at least as well as the cast-iron grates on
our old grill, but are much easier to maintain.
* High double-wall lid. This makes the grill space under the
warming rack actually usable! The double-wall substantially
improves performance in cold or rainy weather, and requires less
gas to keep the grill hot under all conditions.
* Pop-up rotisserie. It is extremely easy to use, and quickly folds
away in a weather-protected stainless pocket. Other thoughtful
touches include obvious hanging storage areas for the spit and
spikes in the cabinet.
* Rodent-resistant cabinet. The cabinet has double-walled doors
with secure magnetic latches, lots of ventilation, and no gaping
holes.
Issues:
* Very Expensive. Even on sale, the S-470 is about 3x the cost of a
Genesis grill. Only you can decide if the extra flexibility is
worth the extra cost. In our case I expect to get 15+ years out of
this grill, and the cost is comparable to some good-quality kitchen
appliances. However, the very high cost is the main reason I give
this grill only 4 stars.
* Side burner has limited heat range. Presumably to prevent
blow-outs that would cause safety issues, the range on the side
burner is only hot to very hot. Simmering at low heat is basically
impossible. For my next trick I plan to try adding a thick solid
burner plate, but for now the side burner mostly does not get
used.
* Lighted controls are mostly a gimmick. Fortunately they are LEDs,
so corrosion should not be an issue and the batteries last for many
hours. However, the lights only work on the four main burner
controls, and are irritatingly bright when you happen to glance at
the gap between the knob and the cabinet while reaching for the
control. I added some white shrink tubing to the end of the LEDs to
eliminate the latter issue, but overall the lighted controls offer
limited benefit.
* Several other reviews mention a design flaw in the Summit grills
which allows rainwater to flow from the back of the grill into the
grease pan (making a big mess in the floor of the cabinet).
Fortunately there is a simple fix. On our S-470 I put an aluminum
flashing on the rear of the case using one of the bolts on each end
of the grill box, similar to the way Weber handles water flow on
the front. A 12" wide roll of aluminum flashing was only ten
dollars at Lowes, and I cut it with scissors to fit. Now even if I
forget to reinstall the cover, no water drips into the grease pan.
This is not an issue with the Weber Genesis grills because the lid
design is completely different (but one of the trade-offs is much
lower interior space). Weber really should make something like this
a running production change.
* Do *NOT* buy the Weber-brand grill cover. I like most of Weber's
stuff, but their covers are very poor quality. Buy the Veranda BBQ
Cart Cover instead. The 'Large' size fits the Summit 400-series
perfectly, and the construction and design are far superior to the
Weber covers.
Other considerations:
* These puppies use LOTS of gas! I am very glad that we were able
to easily pipe natural gas to a convenient location. I can hardly
imagine how fast we would be running through propane at >3x the
cost!!
* If you are evaluating the stainless Genesis models, you really
should consider the S-450 or S-470. The construction is
substantially better and the finish will be much easier to
maintain. Basically I would recommend sticking with the less
expensive porcelain models, or stepping-up to the Summit grills. In
addition to better materials, the front-to-back burners offer much
more flexibility and control, and the side table is not covered
with knobs.
* Check pricing. I buy a lot of stuff at Amazon, but we were able
to find this grill for substantially (~20%) less at another
reputable online vendor.
* The natural gas hose is quite thick and heavy, is apparently
armored inside the PVC exterior coating, and comes with a
good-quality brass 1/2" quick-disconnect. The connector on the end
of the quick-disconnect is a female 1/2" IPS thread (i.e., standard
steel pipe thread), so you need a male 1/2" IPS thread on the end
of your supply line. Be sure to put a "O W G" (Oil/Water/Gas) rated
ball valve immediately before the hose connection, and only use
pipe dope or Teflon tape rated for use with gas.
* In California, galvanized pipe is *required* for outdoor gas use.
According to PG&E, the western gas supply has very low levels
of sulfur, so the old concerns about flaking and corrosion inside
galvanized pipe are not an issue here in California.
* For rare situations where you need more grill capacity, consider
the relatively inexpensive Rib-O-Lator. This is essentially a
ferris-wheel with stainless trays, and will hold an amazing amount
of food (and still leave parts of the grill available). There is at
least one Rib-O-Lator (or Rib-O-Wheel) YouTube video with the
Summit S-470, and the tall lid clearly helps. We use it mostly for
ribs (surprise!), and ours fits easily inside the bottom cabinet
when not in use.
* Not 100% made in USA. Several of the boxes inside the crate were
clearly labeled "Made in China," including the rotisserie and both
tables.
* Remove the door handles and the doors from the cabinet before
removing the protective plastic coating. The doors snap-out easily
if you depress the top pin, and the plastic coating is much easier
to remove completely if the handles are not in the way. Each handle
is held on by two Phillips-head screws and is very easy to
reinstall.
* The crate weighs about 260 lbs, but if you remove the various
boxes from inside the cabinet and fire-box, two people can remove
the shell from the pallet. After that, you can easily roll the
grill on any hard surface, and assembly is straightforward. The
most tedious part of "assembly" was removing the protective plastic
coating and collapsing all of the cardboard debris.Updated July
2010
We use this grill about two or three times a week, and remain very
happy. I would definitely buy this again. I've added some photos to
illustrate the modifications referenced in the original review.
Note that if you regularly use the smoker, the exterior stainless
will inevitably get discolored near the right-side and front edges
of the cover.

(More customer

natural gas, if you're not REALLY into serious grilling, this unit
may be a bit over your head. If you *are*, you'll not find a better
grill on Planet Earth! This bad-boy has it all: Four MEGA-BTU
"main" burners, a center sear-station burner, a smoker box burner
and a dedicated IR rotisserie burner. Oh yeah, and a ultra-high
power side burner, too.
Your charcoal-grilling buddies tease you because you can't get that
nasty charcoal lighter (carcinogen!) "taste" with a gas grill? Ha!
You can now - and go 'em one better! Use the smoker box and any
number of REAL wood chips and you get the taste and odor of apple,
alderwood, hickory, mesquite, oak or cherry w/o the CHT chemical
dangers!
It's simply incredible! Yeah, it ain't a "hardware-store el-cheapo"
either so spend the cash and you're getting a GENUINE Weber-built
grill to last - no joke - a life-time. Check out everyone else's
warranty and you'll jump on the Weber wagon - if you haven't
already.
Weber **IS** quality grilling. Period. You can spend more, you can
buy bigger - but ya can't buy better.
Feeding more people than this rather large grill can handle - with
EASE? The Summit S-670 is the King-Kong big-brother of the S-470.
If you can't cook on either of these two grills, then just give up,
sport - and run on down to Burger King!

Weber 2840001 Summit S-470
Grill, Natural Gas, Stainless Steel
Fire up this grill with the push of a button, and load up its burly
cooking grates with food for the whole crowd. With gourmet-savvy
features for juicy flavor and tenderness, the Summit grill from
Weber is the best way to take backyard grilling to the next level.
The Summit features a sturdy, enclosed cart with chrome-plated cast
aluminum handles. A steel frame and stainless steel shroud with
polished handle and trim will shimmer brightly on the patio or
deck. And, accent colored painted, cast aluminum end caps dress up
the unit nicely.
The cooking system, rated at 48,000 Btu's, includes 4 stainless
steel burners and Weber's Snap-Jet individual-burner ignition
system. The cooking grates are equipped with stainless steel,
9-1/2-millimeter rods for easy cleaning and optimal durability.
Weber's stainless steel Flavorizer bars eliminate grease-fueled
flare-ups that often occur with standard lava rocks and ceramic
briquettes. Fats and juices are vaporized when they hit the angled
bars and quickly sizzle away, adding delicious, smoky barbecue
flavor rather than cauterizing flames. The primary cooking area
measures 468 square inches. The handy warming rack area measures
112 square inches for a total cooking area of 580 square inches.
The grill also has a 12,000-Btu input flush-mount side burner that
lets you prepare sauces and side dishes right on the grill. A
10,600-Btu infrared rotisserie burner is great for slow-cooking
poultry, ham, and roast. And, a 10,600-Btu dedicated sear burner
puts the perfect glaze on your favorite outdoor meal.
Other features include a center-mounted thermometer, 2 stainless
steel work surfaces, Weber's Grill-Out handle light, 6 tool
holders, an enclosed tank storage area and a precision fuel gauge,
a spit fork rotisserie attachment with heavy-duty motor. Two heavy
duty front locking casters and 2 heavy-duty back swivel casters
ensure easy transport and safety. The purchase includes a Weber
cookbook and is covered by a Weber limited warranty.

DiversiTech GP-42-C 30- by
42-Inch Original Grill Pad, Brown Rectangle
You want that portable fire pit or chiminea up on the deck or
patio, but what about sparks, heat and debris that might harm the
flooring? This protective pad sits under grills and other outdoor
heat sources to keep sparks, grease stains, and heat from damaging
floor surfaces. The pad's fiber cement construction stands up to
heat from clay fireplaces, fryers, smokers, charcoal and gas grills
for safe cooking and fireside fun--right on that wooden deck or
fancy, tile patio. And, to prevent moisture build up between it and
the floor, the pad is designed to breathe so there's no need to
worry about mold damage. The pad is not only heat-resistant; it's
weather resistant and cleans easily with a garden hose, quickly
washing charcoal and grease stains away that'd otherwise mar the
deck. A chip-resistant, textured surface stands up to bumps and
scrapes from heavy logs, grates, and sharp grill legs. And, if the
pad's brown hue doesn't match the deck, the textured surface can be
painted with water-based, latex stain to match deck or patio
furnishings!

(More customer
reviews)This is my fourth gas grill which replaces a
very expensive stainless "Turbo" unit I bought from Barbecues
Galore about eight years ago. That Turbo started out fine, but
steadily deteriorated to the point where I didn't even want to fire
it up anymore. The quality of materials and workmanship on the
Weber Summit S-650 is top shelf. Every detail is well thought-out
and executed, including the burner system, high-end side burner, LP
tank weight guage, heavy guage stainless grills, jet ignition
system, separate smoker box and burner, drip tray system, massive
lid, and LED grill-out lights that really work. I've only owned the
Summit for a short time, but everything I've grilled so far has
turned out perfectly. The six burners and large cooking area make
it possible to cook for a large party, but also provide more
options for indirect cooking. Want more heat without increased gas
usage? Turn on the burners closer to the food. It's brilliant.
Perhaps the best features are the flavorizer bars and grease drip
system. They virtually guarantee no flare-ups on fatty foods like
burgers and chicken quarters, which was a constant source of
frustration with my previous grill. The grease hits the flavorizer
bars and disappears into a poof of smoke. What misses the
flavorizer bars hits the full width slanted grease tray that
terminates into an aluminum catch pan. Clean and easy to manage
with zero flare-ups and no charred food.
I really can't say enough good things about this grill and I can't
think of a single negative to write about. While the Summit S-650
may seem expensive at first glance, it compares very favorably to
grills costing 4x as much. With the Summit, you don't get what you
pay for...you get much more. Is it possible to love a grill?

surface (not like most grill out there that claim the cooking area
is the whole size of the grill when in fact it isn't). The total
cooking area is approximately 540 square inches.
It looks great on the backyard, the stainless adds that "summer"
shining look outside.
One of the great features is that you can easily add more charcoal
while the grill is on, in case you need more charcoal. You don't
have to remove grids or anything to add more fuel to the fire!
This worked greatly and we are enjoying the product very much!

(More customer
reviews)After years of dutiful service, I was finally
forced to retire my old Broilmaster. (BTW, my wife somewhat
challenges the use of the word "forced") As a proud Weber kettle
owner for many years (Both the Performer and a Weber 757001 22
1/2-Inch One-Touch Gold Charcoal Grill, Green), I have long had my
sights on an all Weber fleet. I have cooked on Weber gas grills
before. It was never a question of quality, but the overall look of
the Summit line. Simply put, I hated the wheels. There was just
something about that beautiful piece of stainless that appeared to
be riding on the deck of a lawn mower. I toyed with getting a drop
in, but decided against it. When the 2007 Summit line was
previewed, I knew this was the year. The lawn mower wheels were
gone.
Within an hour of the grill's arrival at my house, it was
assembled. In fact, it probably would have gone faster if I had not
stopped every few minutes to photograph my progress. This is a
Weber, so I know that this is really a once in a twenty year event.
I wanted to relive it.
The construction of the 650 is incredibly solid. The first thing
you will notice is that the entire unit is welded together. On your
next walk through Lowe's or The Home Depot, notice how many of the
grills are simply bolted together. Because the 650 is basically
built when it arrives, I unpacked it and assembled the burners,
bars, grates, side table, side burner and grease catcher. It used a
whopping total of 7 screws...none of them structural.
The instructions, in typical Weber fashion, were easy to follow.
Upon moving the grill into position, I was surprised at how easy it
moved. I really have no plans to drive it around the backyard when
not in use, but it was nice to know that the low-profile wheels
were there for more than show. The included ten foot gas line and
quick disconnect valve were also a nice touch. Although these
features might be more suited for the "stow and go" griller, I
found them a nice touch.
With the specified six burners and 60,000 BTU's of heat, I was
anxious for my maiden lighting. The knobs on the unit are nicely
emblazoned with the Weber kettle symbol and were responsive to my
touch. The automatic light system fired up on cue and quickly lit
the burners. Although the ignition did take me a little bit of
getting used to at first, I blame that on my novice experience with
the grill.
In under 10 minutes, I was pumping out 750 degrees. Impressive. I
had a bone-in Rib Eye ready to roll and was highly pleased with the
results. I know that I will have some great grill moments this
summer.
The 650 comes with the rotisserie, smoker box and a side burner.
Although I typically smoke and use the rotisserie on the kettles, I
know that I will experiment with those features here. The 650 also
comes with the Weber 3062101 Grill Out Handle Light that mount on
the lid's handle, but I have yet to install them. Although my Dad
swears by his, I typically have enough illumination in my grilling
area. That, and I just think they take away from the looks of the
grill. To me, everything about the 650 screams quality. From the
heavy deliberate movement of the lid to the beautiful lines of the
grill body, I doubt there is little Weber could have done to
improve this. Knowing that Weber is behind the grill is reason
enough. I have had nothing put great experience with Weber customer
service in the past and know that if I ever do have a problem, it
will be taken care of. This summer, the 650 will set the stage for
many amazing meals and will act as the backdrop for many more
incredible nights.

subscribe to "several" respected health e-zines.
1. 15+ years ago I read tests that charcoal BBQ's, really put
"LOTS" of very bad carciniogens into your meat!
2. So I went to a gas BBQ. Not as good tasting as charcoal, but
"SUPPOSEDLY" healthier?
NOT!- Now I read tests that gas BBQ's are little healthier than
charcoal. The "deadly" carciniogens are in the drippings smoke-
coming from the hot lava rocks below!
3. So I now go to the MECO electric grill.
Pros-
a. Healthier- as virtually no smoke (grill/elements are steeply
slanted, and drippings collect in a handy pan under the grill).
b. No having to mess with expensive propane gas...
c. Well made, and sturdy.
d. Low fire danger- Acceptable for most apartment complexes.
ASK!
e. Sears steaks well (preheat on high for 15+ min, and close lid
FAST! Requires a "Heavy Duty" electric outlet!). Cooks just as fast
(or faster) than gas. BUT, "NO!" BBQ taste! You will probably need
a marinade...
Good "web search" recipe I found for steaks...-
I pre-mix & rub in, a blend of-
salt ("AlsoSalt"- is very healthy and GOOD tasting!), black pepper,
chili powder (all in equal parts...), and a little cayenne pepper.
You can also add any other seasonings you like, to taste...
PAM makes a "High Temp" cooking spray, for the grill.
4. Cons-
a. This is difficult and time consuming (2+ hours! & I'm VERY
handy!), to assemble!
Tips- Pounding on the axel end caps was a challenge (finally laid
it on it's side, and put a 1/4 drive socket (for backing, on the
other end) & hold cap with pliers.
You will surely drop screws... (I put an old sheet underneath
it).

got new neighbors in the apartment below. They smoke constantly and
often have parties with 8-10 people in a tiny apartment all smoking
all night. The building is old, the smoke comes through not only
the ventilation system, but directly through the floors and fills
my apartment with the disgusting stench of Environmental Tobacco
Smoke (ETS). This unit saved me from having to move. It's that
good.
The HEGA filter is particularly good at removing gas molecules and
thus odors and ETS. I have allergies, but they're manageable - I
bought this primarily for odor and ETS control and to that end, it
works perfectly.
It's much quieter than I though possible for something that moves
so much air. Even on the highest setting, I can easily sleep in the
same room with it. Some may be more sensitive to noise, but it's
much quieter than some IQAir models that I've heard. On the lowest
setting, it's barely audible.
I keep the unit in a largish living room/dining room/kitchen area
in my one bedroom apartment and it cleans the air effectively. When
combined with the air circulation of my AC unit, it does a great
job of filling the apartment with clean, smoke free air.
The filters are extremely effective and come with a five-year
warranty. If you live in a particularly polluted environment and
your filter doesn't last five years, Austin Air will give you a
discount on a replacement filter proportional to the length of its
life. The bonus is, it's for that AND every subsequent filter you
purchase. The unit itself also comes with a five-year warranty.
Austin Air seems really great about craftsmanship and customer
service. They don't make a huge variety of products (like Honeywell
or a lot of other electronics manufacturers that offer air
cleaners), but what they do, they do right.
If you're suffering from annoying odors, ETS, or allergies, this is
the machine for you. It's really made all the difference.

durable long-lasting cover. I had the same impression when I
received it and put it into use. But after just five months into
service, the material had completely thinned out at the top from
being in the sun, became brittle, and ripped all the way across the
top. The "heavy duty" material therefore turned out to be of very
low quality, unable to stand up to the sun. I have never seen a
barbeque cover wear out so quickly.

to ship these without some small bending, crushing of the filters.
I think I will buy locally again.

Endust W80800312 Mid-to-High
Performance 16-by-25-by-1-Inch Pleated Furnace Filter,
3-Pack
The Endust Merv 8 furnace and air conditioner filter works 20 times
better than ordinary fiberglass disposable filters. This high
efficiency filter is ideal for dust and pollen filtration. Because
of their design, these pleated filters capture significantly more
particles than fiberglass filters. These filters also carry a
numbered rating called a MERV. MERV is the Minimum Efficiency
Reporting Value as established by the American Society of Heating,
Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE). This rating
system measures a filter's ability to remove particles between 3
and 10 microns. A higher MERV value means higher efficiency.
Changing your furnace filter regularly will help your HVAC system
run more efficiently and improve the air quality in your home. We
recommend changing your furnace filter every 3 months under normal
conditions and more frequently in homes in dusty areas or with pets
or smokers. No matter which filter you choose, it's important to
remember to check and change your filter often. A dirty filter can
affect the air quality in your home, reduce the efficiency of your
HVAC system and potentially cause costly service calls.

cover. The exterior holds up great without one; summer and winter.
Easy to put together too. The E-310 is the same thing without the
side grill.

trash the grate. It is a long story, but suffice to say, I do not
recommend dropping a grate on the ground repeatedly as a cleaning
method. Eventually the grate breaks. That was my fault, not
Weber's.
So, I needed a new grate. I bought this one. As far as I could
tell, it is a relacememt, through and through. It fit, it held up
under the heat. It grilled. Not too complicated.
You've got the obvious choice: do you buy a new grill, or just the
replacement? I can't guide you there. That depends on the age of
your grill. However, if you've a sturdy grill, and in a misguided
cleaning effort you did a bit of damage, go for the
replacement.
I fully recommend Weber's Replacement Charcoal Grates.
