Broil King and Napoleon all have 15 year bumper to bumper warranties now so as long as you take care of it they are guaranteed to last at least that long. Honestly the warranties are insane now...ahmerz wrote: ↑ Was looking at used weber and napolean, they are all rusted, none of them are in very good condition, comparing to my 14 years old lowes store brand flame grill, the burners gave way to rust couple of years ago but still 90% functional, flame cover are gone, griddles have little bit of rust, cook box still ok with rust, not falling apart, body still ok, and I paid 400 or so for this bbq.
Now days I put charcoal on the griddles and put another griddle from old bbq rested on two bricks to make shift charcoal grill, use burners to light up charcoal
So why bother with weber and napolean even if they get rusted, stick to medium quality bbq and replace them, ? Maybe?
I dont know if the broil mate brand I am looking for will last 14 years.
