4. Thoughts on Napoleon? It looks like they've got one that would be $700 WITH cover (Rogue 425), and they have a 15-year warranty (vs. 10 on Weber).

I have an earlier model Napoleon, which I bought 19 years ago. Still solid! The igniters still work since new. It has a cast iron grill and an optional griddle. Probably one of the first 3 burner grills at the time. All other were 2 burners. I would buy another one if need be. One big plus is the shape of the hood which allows the heated air to flow evenly under the hood and out the back so it can act like a smoker. It had a smoker box that had to be replaced a couple of times as I use it often.
One thing I notice that they no longer have is the lava rocks accessory which I loved. Cast iron grate and lava rocks bed is a great combination! Especially when you use the smoker box!
The griddle I use occasionally when the kids/grandkids want pancakes. I also use it as an excellent heat plate for steaming clams and lobsters!
Napoleon may be pricey but they last longer than Webers!
