Personally, I think it depends on how many you routinely cook for. I have a 26, along with several others of various sizes/colors. I cook 95% of the time on a Performer, that sits right outside my Man Cave. A couple times a year, for a party, I get the others out and fire them up. Otherwise, they are just collecting dust (covered of course haha)...... BUTT, when the time comes, and you get all (or some) of them) lit and cooking, its pretty sweet! ..... People seem to gravitate towards the Webers.
