    E = enamel
    S= stainless
    SP = special edition (9mm stainless grates)
    SI = smoker attachment edition
    X = smart grill
    325 = 3 burners, no side burner
    335 = 3 burners with side burner
    435 = 4 burners it’s side burner
    Example : E-335 is an enamel color , 3 burner with a side burner
    I researched these new genesis models for 2 weeks to make my decision, so I figured out all their codings out

      I just ordered an SE-EPX-335 (SKU #37813001) that seems to decode like this, but not sure why they stick a "P" in there:
      SE = Special Edition (9MM grates)
      E - Enamel Black
      P = ???
      X = Smart Grill
      3 = 3-Burner
      35 = Side Burner
      What I *really* wanted was this exact configuration but in a 4-burner; however, for some bizarre reason it doesn't exist! The closest mathc is with a Stainless Steel lid instead (but I want the enamel black because is zero maintenance and pretty much indestrcutible).

    Simple Dad here, currently have a Weber that's 12 years old, built like a tank and I leave outside all winter and I am in Canada, it snowed here yesterday. My Weber takes a beating but still works flawlessly,. Give me a 3 burner Weber, with no side burner, with the 9mm stainless steel grates...that's all I'll ever need or want!

    Wow, you hit the nail on the head with this video. I've owned at least a half dozen gas grills in my life and I really prefer grilling with gas. As the world has turned upside down and prices are skyrocketing on us consumers, I really appreciate you spending the time to break things down for those of us who have the experience to know what kind of grill we need and want. Weber makes a darn good product, but they really do have too many models to figure out unless you really dive in deep. I just want a grill that is well made and will last and is at least "primarily" made in the USA. I don't need electronics and crap that help me grill because I already know how to grill. I know a lot of people have no clue how to grill food, but I do. Thank you!

    People who say it is hard to assemble this grill probably did not try to disassemble it and put back to box for return. I spent about 3 hours assembling it ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxCx5fHawkK9OoV-ojFrY8JLnZrFwAmvUt . Can't say that instructions were bad - they were totally understandable for me, not harder than assembling IKEA bed, but the whole process is just a little time consuming. When I assembled that I connected it to a new U-Haul tank and there was a huge leak in connection between gas tank and grill. I was able not only feel or hear gas leak, but I was literally able to see this leak because it was huge. I closed gas tank immediately and contacted Amazon for help and they offered either refund or 30% discount. I chose refund and then spent another 3 hours disassembling this grill and then figuring out how to put it back, but it was fun, like some sort of puzzle. UPS picked up grill next day right fromy front door. Next thing I went to Lowe's (I also wanted to make some BBQ on Christmas, so did not had time to wait for replacement from Amazon) to find another grill, but smallest they had was exactly the same model as this one. A guy from Lowe's assured me that thing like this happens rarely so I decided to try again - spent another 3 hours to assemble that (so it totals to 9 hours now) and it worked! Tried to cook some chicken - it was delicious. And because I assembled this grill twice it was easier to clean it since I knew which parts are easy to clean.

  • @Ryan-re1rs
    @Ryan-re1rs Рік тому +1

    I boiled down to this, either get the regular genesis for 875 bucks or if you are looking at thier higher tiers you better be looking into other brands too because the Genesis fire box is the same on every model and then you just start paying alot for simple upgrades and they charge a premium for them. I wanted the weber sp-e335 and that's 1,429 msrp, but it is basically a 875 dollar grill with handle lights, 9mm ss grates, side burner and a extra side door. So is it worth 500 more for those extra items? It wasn't to me and I ended up with the napoleon prestige 500. Lol. I went to 4 places and delt with too many people who could have cared less about selling me a 1,500 grill. Too bad your store wasn't near me.

    What I don’t get is why the top of the line 3-burner does not have SS grates. I have a really dark back yard and need the lights, which means smart features., which is the most expensive option. Which does not offer SS grates. Argh. Forces me to go the four burner, but I like the black enamel. If the just simplified their sku lineup, they could simplify their production, make customers happier, reduce their inventory needs, and make more money at the same time. Maybe their New CEO will help things in this area. I suppose I could buy the 3 burner and buy the SS grates, but then I’m just $200 from the 4 burner.

    In Europe, if you buy a Genesis with stainless steel lid, you still don't get stainless steel grates (every grill comes with cast iron grates, except maybe for a few special editions that might be available in some european countries). Also when you buy a "base grade" model like E-325s, the crafted frame kit is included. Also, it's possible to get a 4-burner; E-425s. Makes it a bit confusing when watching information about models from the US for people living in Europe. I don't think the differences between Napoleon gasgrills in US and Europe are that different, at least not from watching videos from your channel. Also, prices are a lot higher in Europe than in the US when it comes to Weber-grills (and that's not just because of higher tax rates).

    To many SKU - how dare they let you decide exactly what size burner, colour, lights and smart features you have. They should cut out all features so its easier for the sales rep to remember a few numbers. To hell with the customer that wants lights in their smaller burner grill. You only get lights if you get the most expensive largest one....also can we count how many times this guy complained about features and details.
    Maybe script the video so it isn't you checking with your sound guy over and over ' does that make sense, did i simplify it, and repeating yourself 10 times. The 15min vid had around 3-4min of actual information.
    If this was scripted to sound 'casual'....get a new storyboard writer for the videos.
