A checked them all out last year, ranging from mid-high gar bbq's to the high-end infrared models. I found the Napolean make to be the best overall for price, btu output and functionality. For me, the Weber models, albeit very good too, did not have practical working surface area use. Their table top areas were taken too much up with the control knobies. The Nqapoleon on the other hand, have their knobs located on a control panel along the fron face of the bbq, freeing all the left-right table surfaces areas for food preparation.
