We had a 4burner Weber with side burner for many years, until a storm tipped it over and that was it. Last spring we bought a Spirit 210 (cabinet) and so far are very pleased with it. And now I’m reminded that sometime this week/end I gotta clean it to prepare for the season. When Chef Saba compares steak cooked on an induction-range cast iron skillet /vs/ cooked in a steam oven /vs/ on a grill, let me know and I’ll road trip up yonder.
Thanks for the review and details on the design changes. I was checking out the grills at the local home store and saw the design differences. I definitely like the newer design and it does appear easier to clean up as well. I am looking at the 3 burner size and am still undecided on the Spirit vs the Genesis II.
Disappointed in the Spirit 210 2 burner with cabinet below. You cannot hang a standard propane tank inside the cabinet. Older models allow you to hang the tank outside and then they changed the design to an indoor hang. Physically impossible to do that. I do not recommend this model.
I saw reviews that showed the Spirit E-310 as the best grill under $500. Checked Lowes price: $699!!! I think Weber has price increased me out of the market!
I have mine for 4 years - 0 repairs and grill looks like new (regular cleaning and in the spring deep clean). The only thing I changed were flavorizer bars from ceramic (original) to stainless steel. For that kind of money the best grill by far - on the other hand I just saw that the price here (Europe) is now 720eur (770$) and I bought it for 450eur? Pffff...

Haha will do!
You can smoke with a spirit grill by taking the hotplate off on one side and using a smoker chip box. Plenty of examples on RUclips
super informative, much appreciated.
Glad it was helpful!

Since this video, price has gone up $180-$200 on most of the models. Crazy inflation!
Great video!
Dang 429 just paid 569 for E210 Spirit!

Lots of repairs will be needed after 5 years
How and what kind of repairs?
