How big is it? How much food can you cook on it (# of hamburgers/hot dogs, etc.)? Do you use it in the winter, too? Tell me anything else you can think of!

I think we have the older model to this grill:weber (http://www.weber.com/bbq/pub/grill/2007/gas/GenesisS320.aspx)
Our Grill is about 3-4 years old and it is still in perfect condition.

In the summer we use it a couple of times per week and don't use it as much during the winter although we should.

I am not sure in terms of how much it holds, but we have never had trouble in terms of space when cooking for 10+ people. I like that on the side is an area to boil water. We will usually cook veggies, or corn there so there is no cooking done inside. It also has a top rack for maybe baked potatoes, buns, or corn. We also will put food up there to keep it warm.

We spent the extra 50 dollars for the cover. It fits perfectly and has kept the grill in such good condition. It stays out during feet of snow and ice and the cover really does a great job protecting it. I also like that you can buy so many extra options like skewers etc. We also make sure to clean it properly after each use.

We bought it at Home Depot for $350 but because it was the ending of a season it was 50% off, so it is valued a little over $700. It was a really good investment.

My parents have a Weber also and I want to say it is 10 years old and still running perfectly.

We have a Charbroil brand smaller grill at our summer house. It was only $150 and being that it will not be used nearly as much we did cheap out. There is a difference in the way that it cooks and is only 2 years old and is totally getting "older."

I don't know what kind of grill we have, but it was a gift for our wedding, so it is approximately 5 years old. Yes, we grill in the winter, but it doesn't get super-cold here (though FWIW, we did grill in the winter in Mass. also). I don't know how big it is, but we cook entire meals on it at one time including all the meat and veggies w/ no problems. I would guess you could cook about 10 burgers on it, plus there is a hanging basket for veggies.
