With summer and the so-called 'official' grilling season coming, I am sure there are a lot of new people to the forum (like me) as well as lurkers who have wondered about the following question.
I ask this question sincerely, and with no malicious intent whatsoever. You guys have a wealth of experience, and I'd love to hear you opinions.
I have read some online reviews where people who have owned a number of Weber kettles over the years complaining the current models aren't made nearly as well as their grills of yesterday: much skinnier tubing on the legs, poorer build quality with some complaining of lids that are out of round and don't seat properly, poorer quality on the porcelain finish, scratches in the porcelain right out of the box, etc., etc.
I love Weber grills from older models to new, I'd just like to hear your experienced opinions on this subject.
