What's the consensus on this generation of gassers? I have two Genny 1000 red heads and two Gold C's, one of which stays on my deck for the occasional use. I primarily use the kettles now, but I wouldnt mind picking up a copper one to match my Performer.
This style with the east-west burners seems to be just the same as the ones I have already. Are the newer north-south versions any better? Are the older ones built any better than the north-south versions?

Not to rain on a parade, but I'm not a big fan of this model/generation. There's something about the look of it that's just off putting to me, plus I don't think the quality is there compared to older models. The newer models with N/S burners look better to me, but quality issues arise with them as well. Basically, the carts on these later generation models suck and will rust out. I have a Genny Gold C that has sat outside uncovered in my back yard for more than 15 years and there isn't a spot of rust anywhere on the frame.
As to N/S vs E/W burners, it's personal choice. Some who use the rotisserie a lot swear by the E/W setup and it makes sense. For indirect cooking, it's a mixed bag. Some say E/W is best for that while I tend to think that N/S is better.
Your Genny 1000's have the deeper firebox and 13 bars, and many swear that this is still the best version of the Genny's that Weber ever made. Very even heat distribution with almost no flare ups (if properly maintained.) Plus, they look more "Retro" than the Silver/Gold A/B/C generations.
