Nothing but the best
This BBQ has everything you could ask for. The sear station works perfectly and is better than any regular side burner like most BBQs. The rotisserie is a big plus for my prime ribs and turkeys. Nice even cook and lighted knobs. The only complaint I have is the assembly is difficult and definitely takes two people. Even with that, it was not enough to knock off a star.

Built like a tank but not all stainless...
Edit: Gave 5 stars. Why? Durability. A windstorm knocked this tank over on its side because i didn't have the wheels lock. Not only does it still work but i found that the gimmicky rotisserie actually works unlike the Weber before. Man o' man that's some succulent yard bird!Why not 5 stars? Not all stainless. Also, those front doors and their alignment as others stated in their reviews. DREADFUL!ex Weber fan for almost 40 years. Ditched Weber for the high corrosion rate they blamed on me fertilizing my yard. Guess what geniuses... I've always fertilized my yard. Sad you coach employees to say that as opposed to standing behind your products that really stood on their own for generations!On to Napoleon. Exceptional material quality and tolerances outside of the aforementioned front doors. The rear and side sear stations are no joke! Weber claimed to sear but it was nothing like this Napoleon! I like to Sous Vide poultry and lean pork and then get that char without further cooking.Even heat distribution on exceptional cooking grates. Did i mention that the quality of the cooking grates blew me away? I do not fear having to run the Ace for overpriced Weber components made in China when these fail. As soon as you pull them out of the packaging you know.Igniter system. Seems equal here. Only time will tell however the Napoleon does light quicker. The Weber was never horrible until debris got on to the igniter housing somehow under a flavorizer bar.Wheels. Both Weber and Napoleon are dreadful for the money. Challenging to roll across smooth concrete let alone sculpted patio scenarios. Set it and forget it but why not one up Weber and put some decent poly wheels on these medium to higher end grills?Packaging. Napoleon is the Apple of grill packaging. Very nicely done! Even with a little damage to the top of the box, they anticipated this and was packed in such a way to not damage the grill. No one wants to send something this size back!Shout out to BBQ Guys! Exceptional reseller (resellerratings.com) and happy to do business with now they are on Amazon! Great shipping method BBQ Guys! You spared no expense in a quality worse case shipping scenario! Big and Bulky! Thank You!

Arrived damaged and missing parts
Update: I, could not.get through to Napoleon but Denise at BBQ Guys took great care of me. I now have a new damage-free grill ready for cooking on!This grill looks awesome, but sadly it arrived damaged and parts missing. The shipping box and packing was not damaged so possibly was damaged when packed.The 2 side panels of the stand had dents in them. Managed to straighten them out as I wasn't bothered too much by it and they still worked. But when I get to install doors I notice that bag of parts is missing. That bag also contained the parts to mount the grill box. As I inspected the grill box, I noticed the panel at the back was dented, and also the front lip under the controls was pushed in, exposing 2 sharp corners.Was on hold for nearly 2 hours with Napoleon (instructions said to call them first), then gave up. Have opened a ticket with BBQ Guys. Hoping for a quick replacement, as I have a kids birthday party next week.Will update on replacement process.

Fantastic Experience and Grill
I never take the time to write reviews, but I had to for this grill. It arrived in pristine packaging on the correct date delivered by FedEx. A pleasant experience. I assembled it in an afternoon. All the hard parts (firebox, control panel, burners/ignition) were already put securely together. Only had to assemble the base and drop the firebox on top. I did have help from the wife to sit the firebox on top of the cart assembly. I recommend two people for that part so you don’t end up bending a tab or something. Instructions were fairly straightforward. Not a difficult assembly at all. Just take your time.As far as performance, I never knew a grill could be so nice! I am literally blown away. I have zero flame ups and can control the temperature like it is an oven. I love this thing. I am literally inspired to grill more. And I tried the side sizzle zone with a few ribeyes, and it was the best steak I have ever grilled, that is not hyperbole. Just a fact. I can’t wait to try the rotisserie. And the high quality materials used in the grill are top notch. You can tell right away. This thing is a tank and will last a loooong time.Anyway, a very great buying experience, shipping, assembly, and performance. Could not ask for more.
