Well,
Personally I think the only innovation is the gas starter which I like. Otherwise it is a double skinned kettle, surprised there is no insulation material between the 2 skins, if they are looking to compete with the Komados then thought this would be essential. They make much of the 2 height searing station but from what I can work out you have to choose either a or b at the start, I have achieved the same effect by "piling the coals up".
I don't think this grill is aimed at the likes of us that frequent these forums, in the same way as the Summit gas grills they are aimed at the trendy London set that can stand around it in chinos and ralph Lauren polos "well, it was a couple of quid more than the standard, but the gas ignition thing takes the pfaff out, and you know Weber are the brand leaders"
So not a chance of me purchasing one, don't think I would be tempted at 1/3rd of the price, this one isn't about BBQ it is just "reassuringly expensive"
Cheers
