Weber GENESIS S-435 Propane Grill w/ Cover, Griddle & Sear Grate

I've always wanted a Weber, and I'm glad I went with the Genesis S-435. Cooking on this grill is a huge step up from the budget model I had from Home Depot—the quality is noticeable, and the food turns out significantly better. That said, there are two minor drawbacks. First, the built-in propane gauge is far from accurate. Second, the stainless steel hood handle gets extremely hot when exposed to the sun, which could be a safety concern, especially for kids. Neither issue is a dealbreaker, but they're worth noting.

Ordered the S-435 from PC Richards in NJ on a Thursday. Loved its features, Quality and Reviews. Scheduled to be Delivered on Saturday. Waited all Day for it to be Delivered. Delivery Time Moving out Multiple Times - Until I knew it was not going to be delivered that day. At 9:55 PM - Truck called - we will be there in 10 minutes. Delivered in the Dark. Went to get a flashlight - as they carried to my New Expensive Grill to my deck. The Unit was delivered Filthy and with Dents. Was Not just assembled - since my Thursday Purchase. So why is this your problem. Are you Managing your Channels? That, in the End - Represent YOU. Still have a Grill Grate Component - I have NO idea - where it goes or how to use based on Your Product Documentation. Cleaned it up, ignored the Dents - Have used the Grill 4 times and Love it. Also purchased 2 of the connected App Product (one for Me, the other for my Brother-in-law). Have NOT yet have the opportunity to Use yet. Next Test - is the 4th of July - where Grill it will be used constantly for ~10 hrs straight! and will setup the Connected Product the Software App to Test on Omaha Filets!!.

Solid grill and good functionality. The digital "built" system for building the grill gives a real nice 3D view.

Plenty of space for feeding a crowd or cooking large items like a Thanksgiving turkey. Heats up fast, has great temperature control, plus has a seer burner for extra high searing heat when needed. Love the WiFi connected sensors to let me know when the grill is heated up or when the meat is ready - wherever I am, so I don't have to stay glued to the grill. I've used Weber for years. They last and last, and are well worth every penny. Can't see switching to any other brand.

with the natural gas grill there is a lot of room for a shelf inside the lower cabinet. would be a great help for the handycap people.

I have used Weber grills for over 30 year. In my opinion they are the best consumer grade grill for backyard cooks. I purchase this grill to replace my old (17 yrs) Weber Genesis grill which I rebuilt 3x with Weber parts. This new grill is fantastic, especially cooking with the rotisserie. The smart function works great with the meat prob and the searing is awesome. My only complaint functionally is the the ignitor for the side burner does not work and after tracing the wiring and reseating the connector I have not figured out why. That being said there are a lot of accessories you can add to this grill which really expands the utility of the unit. I recommend it highly.

This thing is awesome. My last Genesis was 10 years old. Still worked but it was time for an upgrade. After ALOT of research I chose this. It is a lot larger than my other genesis. I love the digital panel and options. It's just a very good grill.

Have only used this grill half-dozen times, but I'm very impressed. It feels smooth and solid. Everything works as intended. It gets HOT in a hurry and maintains the heat very well. Compared to the Weber Summit propane grill that I had for over (15) years, this works much better. And the Summit was GREAT! The convenience of natural gas vs. propane is huge. Assembly wasn't too bad, considering that I had to do it by myself. Used the BILT app that was recommended and it was very helpful in that it gave a different perspective of how things go together. Looking forward to many years of trouble-free use.

Having fun with my new Weber grill - cooked steaks, chicken breasts, veggies, etc. - works like a charm. Assembled myself - pretty easy. Seasoned the whole grill with Avacado Oil after cleaning all parts with soap and water. First cook was a ribeye and a filet mignon. My daughter told me it was the best steak she ever had - including high priced restaurant steaks (This made me feel like I accomplished some kind of milestone). Put the old weber gas grill (16+ years old - still working) out on the curb and had a sign (still working - please give me a new home). It was gone in less than an hour.

I have been a Weber Grill fans for a few decades. After retiring I decided to upgrade to the 4 burner (with sear plate) and the full sized griddle. I am extremely pleased with my purchase. When entertaining the grill has become a magnet for our guests. It's is beautifully designed and everyone wants to watch especially when I use the full size griddle. I tried smash burgers the other night and everyone came back for seconds. I was a little intimidated by the sear zone but I watched a couple of You Tube videos to get some suggestions. I had purchased several very expensive cuts of rib eyes and I wanted to ensure the meat was cooked properly. All the steaks came out with those perfect sear marks and they were delicious. My son who is a fan of high end steak house loudly announced it was the best steak he ever had. No leftovers!!!!
