Guide Review - Weber Summit Silver A
This grill has been discontinued. It has been replaced by the Weber Summit S-420.Not only is this a great cooking grill with plenty of even heat, but it is a great looking grill with good control and versatility. If you consider this the base unit you can add up to $700 more by the time you get to the top, but either way this series is a collection of really great, high quality grills.
The four burner configuration gives you great versatility in your grilling. You can almost surround foods grilled indirectly or you can create a wide range of temperature zones for grilling all kinds of foods simultaneously. The ability to grill one thing hot and fast while grilling something slower and lower is a great feature.
Weber products today have great warranties and a long history behind them. Take care of this investment and it will last a long time.
