I faced resistance when I decided to get one. Resistance meaning
gritted teeth trying really hard to say NO WAY. Hey, the man ain't
stupid. I wanted it, I got it. Now, you will have to take my word
for it, have suitable transportation to bring it home. Long story.

Anyway, I have put together *many* a grill. I'm meticulous about
that, but after say, 3 years the wheels are all wobbly, the grates
are crap, blah blah blah. Bill, this thing has to be ... geez,
easily 7 years old. Perfect like day one. Perfect. I especially
liked the part where the gas assembly was done at the factory. That
is the one part I did not care to do.

It cost more initially, but I'd be on my third grill by now if I'd
cheaped out. It's worth it.
