Does anybody know anything about the Char-broil Stainless Steel Terrace
series (or Thermos brand - I think they are both made by Char-Broil) gas
grills? How about the Char-Broil Commercial Series? It has cast brass
burners with a lifetime warranty.

I am also looking at the Weber Genesis Silver B or C.

I want to stay under $ 500. Any advice?

Get the Weber Silver B and support your nation.
If your stuck for cash, the Coleman grills
are a bargain and well made. The Brinkman's, Char Broil
and Jenn Aire are junk.

The Char-Broils are too flimsy for extended service.
Support the USA and buy the Weber Silver B.
If your cash strapped, buy a Coleman.
Good quality and capacity.

Only if they have changed a lot in the last 9 years. My CharBroil gets
used at least twice a week, year 'round. It lives outside, withoug a
cover here in central MA. I'm quite happy with it and its ruggedness.

What kind of Char-Broil do you have?

Three tips for you IMHO
1. Buy the Weber
2. Read the archives of this newsgroup and you'll see that you're question
of "I'm looking at brand X vs. Weber" is asked hundreds of times each year
over and over. Invariably, the consensus is to buy the Weber.
3. If you still haven't decided after step 1 and 2, buy the Weber.

Why you ask? Because they work well, are moderately priced, good customer
service, etc.

Now if all you're going to do is grill a few burgers or hot dogs 5 times a
summer, buy the cheapest thing you can find, it won't matter anyway.

If you're looking to impress your neighbors, buy whatever brand is most
expensive looking

Precision Flame 8000. I liked it well enough to buy a Coleman branded
clone for the lake house.
