Ignore all the previous models which buckle from the heat and blister the paint - just stick with this one! We've only used it twice so far this season but are very impressed indeed. Easy to put together, excellent cooking area for a family of 4, easy to clean, very sturdy and stable, doesn't buckle from the heat and the shiny stainless steel finish looks great. The only disadvantage I can think of is that it's heavy, but that's a small point which is more than compensated for by its robustness, flatness and the handles make it easy to carry. If space in your car to fit in a BBQ is an issue, you MUST get this one.
