Anyone who grills a lot knows that heat plates don't last forever. I grill a lot. The first heat plate that came with my Fiesta grill lasted all of a couple months. It was made of some kind of galvanized material that just seemed to disintegrate and rust almost as soon as I started using it. I was able to find this plate at a local hardware store and it was great it lasted probably close to 2 years which with as much as I grill is a pretty nice time frame considering I also live in a state with 4 seasons and that gets used on cold winter days and hot and humid summer days.
It's very easy to install with bolts that come with it. With my particular grill there's no way to 'permanently' install it, (the grill itself does not have the holes built into it) but it is built in a way that it sits on the raised edges the way it's meant to do, and it's snug enough that while I am always moving my grill in and out of the garage it stays put. It's also wider than the original heat plate that came with it, and has more vents, so I get a much nicer even grill and I'm not shuffling food around all over because one side is hotter than the other.
Eventually it will succumb to the the heat and weather, and starts to fall apart, but for the price and how nicely it works, I really can't complain. My only complaint is that my local hardware stores don't carry it anymore which is no fault of the manufacturer.

Used this to replace the ceramic briquette's and grate. Attached the 4 long screw legs. Drilled 4 holes in the in the base to match the leg location. Used the extra nuts on the legs to set the height. Placed the legs in the holes. The unit heat plate can be lifted out for cleaning. I thought this might reduce the flare ups you get with the briquette's. It didn't. Other than that it works OK. Have not cleaned it yet.
Best Deals for GrillPro 92375 Porcelain Coated Heat Plate
This is my second time buying this upgrade/replacement heat plate. That's meant to be a compliment, it's solid and it lasts long enough, a few years. I like to replace parts as needed instead of the whole grill. (No matter how much you spend on a new grill, and even if you keep it covered, outdoor moisture plus the heat of the flame will erode steel parts over time.) This has an extension piece so you can expand the length to fit your grill, but it's a good size to begin with. Solid and heavy metal. I recommend it.
Honest reviews on GrillPro 92375 Porcelain Coated Heat Plate
Silly me, I thought that since I had a Grill Pro that this universal "Grill Pro " replacement plates would fit. No. I ordered 2 sets of these just to find out that they are HUGE!!! And they have an expansion piece.... Geeze I would love to see what size grill this fits! I have a 3 Burner and they are just way to big. So if you have a normal size grill (3 burner) this product will not fit. However the quality seems to be very good their just useless to me.

The heat plate did not fit my grill, even though I measured the grill and double checked prior to ordering. Unfortunately, it cost almost as much to ship back to amazon as the grid cost. Not happy with this at all.
