somebody shut me the fark up.
Not sure, but I checked Amazon for the Q1200 and it was the same price. I'd probably go with the more known store...

Assuming you are talking about gassers, I would avoid Weber. They ain't what they used to be. There are better options.

What do you recommend? I'm looking at the Weber Genesis II LX series

Buy a 20 year old Weber gasser with bad burners and grate on Craigslist for $25. Buy new burners and grate from Weber for $100. You'll have 1/4 of the money spent on a gasser worth triple of most new units.

Either buy a used Weber, previous generation or earlier. Sometimes you can score a use Broil Master on CL. Or if wanting new, look at Broil King (different company than Broil Master). Those are about your only real options for quality gassers in the sub $1000 range.

Are the Broil King grills Made in the USA?

They have two plants. One in Indiana and one in Ontario.

I'll take a 10 Year burner 10 Year grate 10 Year flavor bars warranty all day. I would not hesitate on a new Weber. Not many companies offer that kinda of guarantee. I don't own a broil king but have read some good reviews on them. I will say comparing the companies warranties are like comparing apples and oranges. 10 years vs 1 Year = No brainer
Correction: Broil Kings warranty is not 1 Year as pointed out in post below.

Take a breath!
I replaced my 1999 vintage Weber gasser with a new Genesis about a year and a half ago. It is twice the grill the old one was. More cooking area, better ignition, better heat control, two stainless steel shelves, and some covered storage underneath. All for the same price I paid back in 1999.

What are you talking about? My BK Regal has 10 years on burners and lifetime on cast parts.

My bad I thought I had read it has a 1 year warranty. I stand corrected.

So what is your review on the BK? Flavor? Are their videos accurate? Thanks for your input up front.

On youtube checking out all the video for the Broil King Regal and Imperial grills.
10 year warranty on the burners and 2 year on parts and paint.

They seem to be regular prices.

Don't know how well the new Weber gassers hold up since my 15 year-old Genesis won't die.
