A second vote for the weber. I had a cheap charbroil from HD, and had to replace the burner every year. It never cooked even. I have had the weber for a few years now. Most people I know, who have a weber have been happy with it.

Depends on your budget. Under a grand I think the Weber is probably the best bet cost/value.

Have cooked on just about every kind out there. The best so far is Vermont Castings hands down! Keep it covered in the winter and it will outlast all the others.

Vermont Castings has an excellent reputation, top notch. I have a Weber right now that I really like, but the Vermont Castings may be next on my list.

My school of thought here is different.
I bought a $100 Char-Broil.If a part needs to be replaced the generic versions of these parts can be found in almost any Benny's,WallyWorld or Joblot for almost next to nothing which means no hassles.And it works well.I also cover mine after each and every use,it never sees rain unless I'm using it in the rain.
I also have to admit that I do a fair amount of cooking over charcoal/wood in my pit so for me the cheapy is a good option.

I got a ducane as a christmas present this year and its ok, not great. Prior to that I had a Weber for 10 years. I'd get another one if I was spending my own money.
Another opition is to look into getting a rebuilt unit. At my club we recently purchased a rebuilt weber to use for special outside functions. It cost $100 and works as well as a new $500 one.
