Well, it's here and it's spectacular. Super pumped...I haven't had a proper grill in about 4-5 years (between living in a condo that didn't allow them and my new backyard build taking forever). I'm officially a convert from Weber. No doubt that Napoleon is just much more grill for the money, at least so far...
Here it is with the knobs lit up...
They turn red when the associated burner is on, which is kind of handy...
The side sear station, which is super high heat for searing, not a side cooktop burner that I'd never use. It gets really hot...flames going everywhere. This will take some tweaking and getting used to...
Here's the char on the first side I did. Probably left it on a little too long...
And here's the other side which probably wasn't quite long enough, but I was worried I'd overcook it, which I did. There are a few things I can do differently to perfect this part, but it is a really nice feature and I think I'll love it once I get it dialed in...
Here's the money shot, but I'm not super proud of it. Probably cooked it about right before I put it on the sear station, which then took it a bit over...
Overall though, the build quality, features, warranty and price point are superior to Weber in just about every way I can see so far.
