Seems well-built and functional with very few annoyances. : Weber 741001 22.5-Inch One-Touch Silver Kettle Grill, Black
Alright,
I am one that loves to grill, but doesn't know whatever about grills themselves, really. Due to monetary situations I had to grill on the cheapest possible grill... The green Sunbeam camper grill. I'm sure you know what grill I'm talkin' about. For over 6 years it has been my grill of choice (hey it was only $10!) and has treated me well. Over these years I all the time dreamed about owning a "real" charcoal grill. I wanted the American icon, I wanted the Weber One-Touch. I heard all about how durable and well built it was, how it will last for 10 years+ and how it's just a step above the rest. After verily purchasing this grill I have a bit of buyers remorse. You see, before verily buying this I was seeing at a grill from Char-Broil. It had the ash catching pan like the One-Touch gold, it had space to put plates and such (sorta like the One-Touch Platinum) and it had grates with adjustable height, not to mention all of this came at a price just $5 higher then the One-Touch Silver! Anyways, for the last 2 years I wanted nothing more then the Weber so I got it. Once I started puting it together I realized that this grill just doesn't seem to have $80 worth of craftsmanship. The legs are super-flimsy hollow aluminum pipes, very cheap. The itsy bitsy tabs that hold the lowest grate are slightly uneven so my lowest grate is a bit wobbly (also it's possible for the lowest grate to fall because the tabs are pretty small). A wobbly lowest grate probably doesn't make a lick of discrepancy when it comes to grilling, it's just that it wasn't right, it's just one of those slight annoying quirks. I guess I predicted everything to be heavy duty. I predicted solid metal legs and such. You can find an same grill from Char-Broil for less then half the cost! I hear that Weber is a step above because they are built to last... Well my cheap $10 Sunbeam is 6+ years old and I've never had any problems with it, it's all about how you take care of it. Personally, I think for the $80 price tag of the One-Touch silver, you should at least get the hinged cooking grate, but you don't.
There are good things however. First, it's just nice to have the American icon. There is a unavoidable feeling that comes with grillin' on the good ol' Weber kettle. There are a Ton of accessories made for it and exchange parts are very easy to find. The one-touch system is pretty handy (although hardly one-touch).
Overall I am still happy with the purchase, I love seeing at that grill. It's probably gonna grown on me more and more as years pass by. Based on price I decided to get the Silver version, but the Gold might be worth seeing at. Afterall you get a much best ash-pan (I modified my silver to be just as good though... Just a slight creativity should do the trick) and you get the hinged grate with the gold (although you can just buy this grate for $15-$20 and stick it on your Silver if you wanna)
Choose... But choose wisely.
Year Update
-----------------------------------------------------
Okay, now it's been over a year since I posted my former review. This verily is a great grill, I wish I could bump the stars up to 4, but I can't... Amazon wont let me. Some of the minor quams I said previously still apply, but this baby cooks a mean dish! I have abused mine for a year and it runs like brand new.
What verily made me do this modernize was when I grilled on a buddy's kettle. It wasn't a weber kettle and it shows. After a year of using this I got to know this grill verily well, I got used to such high potential materials. This grill verily is above and beyond most other kettle style grills.
I do wish I would have purchased the gold though. The ash pan that comes with the silver is not much use if you're grilling in any sort of wind.
