The beauty of that setup is it’s all ready to use a rotisserie. You can put on the front and back burner and spin a bird. No other modern Weber gasser can do that. I have a summit with the rotisserie burner but it tends to burn the food that’s closest and leaves the rest with a less than desirable color. Unless the meat is perfectly round you get an uneven striping effect. Those genesis are more like a rotisserie oven. Overall they are great cookers.
I would shop around for some stainless grates as they can be found pretty cheap. There’s a Weber version and many aftermarket. Once you have solid grates the rest will work out. Burner tubes and flovorizers are all over the place. With the right stuff and care that grill could cook another 20 years.
By the way if you do shop for a rotisserie make sure it comes with the motor bracket that bolts to the cook box. They are usually missing.
So, the east/west has a great purpose.
My wife loves ours for quick lunch cooks. I also got it free and spent about 80 bucks on it.
