Interesting discussion.
I wonder which ones are a better value for annual cost -- a cheap grill or an expensive grill? I assume that either type will not last forever, and at some point will need some parts replaced.
Mine, for example, is a 15 year old Char Broil. The case is cast aluminum and the grates are cast iron. So these parts hold up quite well. The stainless steel burners have been replaced once and I have another set in the garage in case I can't find replacement in the future.
With care, it has held up quite well.
