I've waited almost a year before writing this review because I believe it takes that long to really test a grate for warping, etc.

This grate really does the job. The original was a source of irritation because it simply couldn't take the heat of normal grilling and high temperature cleaning without warping.

This one is much better. At the same time I bought these grates, I bought the stainless flavorizer gizzies. They, too, are worth the extra money.

Product avertised as Stainless steel cooking grates for $24.95. I received porcelain enameled cooking grates. Called vendor and was told that it was a mistake in the ad. The porcelain enameled grates were $24.95 and the stainless steel were $49.95 so they sent me porcelain enameled which i didn't order. Reordered stainless steel grates from another vendor because they told me i couldn't get the ones i wanted until i returned that ones i didn't order and i did not want to wait that long. They told me they were going to send me a return label which i still have not received.

Just bought a home and to my surprise, the backyard came equipped with a built-in Charmglow grill. Started right up but was cooking my food unevenly. After inspecting the burner, it appears it had rusted, cracked and the gas was not flowing properly. Figured this thing was ancient and wouldn't be able to find a replacement but amazingly there are several sites that sell replacement parts for these types of grills. I took my measurements off the existing burner and simply searched for the same size burner. I decided on the cast iron burner because a saw how worn and damaged the burner can become with time and heavy use.

This new burner fit right in and now I'm a happy camper!

It's a good idea, but we can't get the logo to actually show up on the meat. We have read the reviews and watched youtube videos. It may be user error, but either way, it still won't work. It is a good conversation piece and it's fun to watch the different guys try and make it work.

EDIT: You need to get the iron REALLY hot. My grill was low on gas so it couldn't get it hot enough. Place it on the grill first and press it on top of the meat just before you take it off.

We bought and used this rotisserie to roast a 30lb lamb over Easter. It worked. But there are some issues with the spit:

1. The spit is a 7/8" hollow stainless pipe. After 5 hours of roasting our lamb we discovered afterwards that the spit had a bow in it.

2. Our 30 lb lamb was too long for this unit's 48" spit, though under it's weight limit (40 lbs.). We had to solder on a 12" piece of 3/4" copper pipe to accommodate the lamb. An equivalent 30 lb. suckling pig would be shorter, and probably would work. But lamb probably maxes out at 25 lbs, which at that weight hasn't got a lot of meat.

3. Balancing the load: Without proper balance the motor will have a very short life. When roasting whole animals, trying to get the beast on the spit is work enough, let alone trying to balance it. Therefore, a counter balance is commonly used to compensate. Spitjack emphasizes the importance of this in their manual. The catch is that Spitjack doesn't offer a counterbalance. Because Spitjack uses a proprietary 7/8" spit, there are no other counterbalances on the market that will fit. We improvised by attaching a pair of vice grips to the spine u-bolt, but this is hardly ideal.

4. As with the counterbalance, other standard rotisserie baskets or forks on the market will not fit this unit. Seems to me that Spitjack should offer a spit reduction coupler for the motor that would allow the user to utilize industry standard 5/16" or 1/2" spits. The user could then take advantage of the various rotisserie baskets and other accessories available on the market when roasting lighter fare. As it stands now, your only option is to use the forks they offer.

Another issue is the motor clip that goes around the tripod upright to keep the motor stationary and the spit turning. The clip does not fit tightly around the upright. There is about 3/8" of play and this means that the motor lurches against the upright with every rotation. We fixed this by wedging in a piece of wood, but this seems like very poor engineering to us.

The forks, thermometer, and trussing kit were all first rate. The tripods are in the el-cheapo category, but they worked and did the job.

We contacted Spitjack with our concerns and they promptly sent out a new 60" spit. They further stated that a counterbalance is "in the works". As for the ill fitting clip, they stated: "it is supposed to be that way to allow play in the motor. By allowing play in the motor in (sic) increases the life of the motor." This makes no sense to us, and when we asked for further clarification, we received none. So wedge the wood already and you'll be all set. As for a reduction coupler to use other accessories from other manufacturers on your new rotisserie motor, Spitjack politely suggested that we have our own manufactured...

So how to rate? At the heart of the deal is the motor. It had no trouble turning our 30 lb. lamb. But by far the bigger question is: How long will it last? We can not say based on our single test. Issues with the spit have been documented, and lastly we have the price point, which is quite good. We rate 4 stars. If and when a counterbalance becomes available, and with proven motor longevity, we'd be happy to come back and award 5 stars.

Worked as stated. I did 2 32 pound whole pigs, one at a time, the first didn't go so well. I didn't get it balanced very well. The second went great. I was happy with all of it except the picture showed a trussing needle and it didn't come with one. Over all it is great we are planning on roasting our turkey this year for thanks giving.

I always wanted a spit to cook outdoors. The CB35 I thought was a good size, its rated for up to 40lbs.

I received it on time paying for 2 day delivery. The spit itself is great heavy steel and the motor runs and wont quit. I was a little disappoint with the stands, not made with heavy steel as the spit.. I purchased a 33 lb hog and it was to big for the lenth of the spit

Let's face it, if you are going to spend over 1000 dollars on a grill, you need one very good grill cover and this fits the bill perfectly.

Not only does it protect the grill's sheen and surfaces, it actually hugs the grill and the grill shape still looks attractive, even with the cover on.

Also, we can't let anyone forget that the grill and cover were made by Weber (the best grill company on Earth) so, it has a good sized logo on the cover for everyone to be uber-jealous of!

All-in-all, a must-have for the Summit 625 and Summit 650 grills.

These are exactly as described and of adequate quality to be reused a couple of times after washing. The one issue is that they are advertised at 6.5 inches long, but the usable length of the skewer is just 4 inches. This isn't very long. They might be OK for some short satay skewers, but they are very short if you have some serious amounts of kebab chunks to grill. There are some 9.5 inch ones also available (I purchased the longer variety at my local hardware store) which may be of more use.

They arrived within the expected time. All of the skewers where very well made. No splinters or burrs on the shaft of the skewers. I used them that same night on a fondue with cheese. They worked much better than the metal spikes. I usually loose two pieces of bread once the cheese starts running out and starts to become hard. Didn't loose any this time. There was not flavor imparted to the mixture either. They cleaned very easily and dried quickly on the kitchen counter.

A very hiqh-quality piece, this is my third or fourth Weber gas grill, not counting the several charcoal kettles I've had over the years. Quite heavy, much more than my Genesis model that it replaced. I read the reviews before purchasing and want to reinforce the need to buy the proper (and non-vented!) cover for this grill.

If you leave it uncovered in the rain, be prepared for a real mess. The grease collection system acts like its supposed to, funneling everything that falls through the grate into the drip pan including rain that gets in through all the vent holes above the burners. Even a moderate rain, 1/2 inch or less, will fill the drip pan to overflowing and the grease inside will float off the top and into the interior cabinet. Unpleasant and messy to clean up.

The cover you want is the Weber 7554 premium cover for the Summit 400-series.

Ive had this grill for 6 months now and am happy to report all is well.

Very easy to set up. Maybe 20 minutes. Just connect the main pieces

Heats quickly and can get to around 750 F with all burners firing

Searing element works well

Night light is great after dusk. Just the right amount of light

Attracts finger sprints and dirt but to be expected from stainless steel

Infrared Rotisserie works well the first time I used it. Chicken was moist and golden brown

Had a problem with the rotisserie motor and one call to Weber had a new one at my front door in 2 days. They were great.

Happy and would buy again

11/10 Update

I have had the grill for 1.5 yrs now and noticed that the paint on the sides of the hood started bubbling and peeling even though it has been constantly under the Weber cover since new. I called up customer support to tell them and within 1.5 minutes with her on the phone, she said they would send me out a new hood immedietly at no charge. I received it within 3 days. This company is incredible. All other companies should take note.

Best Deals for Weber 2740301 Summit S-470 Propane Tuck-Away Rotisserie Grill

I've just read a few reviews that echo what I'm about to report. I too have owned a Genesis for 12 years and loved it, that was a $500 grill and performed rain or shine flawlessly. Only when the legs started rusting out did I decide to splurge(after 12 years, this is justified!). I buy this s470 for more than three times what I paid for the Genesis and I can't leave it outdoors. I have beautiful brick pavers in my yard that were ruined because like others have reportedthe slightest rainfall floods the grease pan creating a disaster in the cabinet and whatever lies beneath.

The inability to stay outdoors is only one of many flaws this grill has.

I use the rotisserie often and on level ground, the shaft walks out of the motor drive after about a 1/2 hr of turning causing your chicken or whatever to burn on one side. I had to put bricks under the right wheels to prevent this, Another tip is to make a little tape flag and wrap it around the shaft so you can see from far away if the shaft walked out--AGAIN! The grooves on the shaft were designed too wide allowing lateral travel. P.O.S.

The burner knobs are wobbly from the factory, I thought it was just mine but when I went back to the store I saw that all summit knobs are wobbly-not exactly what I was was expecting for $1700.

Utensil Hooks are not even hooks but button like protusions that cause your tools to fall with the slightest bump, I'm using Weber's pro tools and the only thing than hangs on well is the cleaning brush that has a leather loop rather than the metal loops.

Why did Weber make this grill mostly stainless steel and neglect the cabinet? it had the potential to be a great grill.

I do like a few things about it:

-It can cook very evenly, Lighted knobs are an asset at night, wheels are beefy and ride well over a rough surface but tools are falling at the same time, It's a nice looking grill but what's the point if I have to cover it right after using it.

Overall, avoid this grill like the plauge until the fix it's obvious design flaws.

Honest reviews on Weber 2740301 Summit S-470 Propane Tuck-Away Rotisserie Grill

I bought this to replace a older natural gas summit I had to let go when I sold my home. The qquality of steeel in the older unit was in my opinion superior. However this unit has several improvements. The burner ignition system is greatly improved. The utensil hooks don't interfer with the door opening. The rotisserie spit and forks have on board storage. The sear burner really works. This uniit burns much hotter than the old but this may be due to the propane fuel. Overall I would recommend this unit.

Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Weber 2740301 Summit S-470 Propane Tuck-Away Rotisserie Grill

This is a good grill but it is taking a while to get familiar with it. The box is not as air tight as my previous Weber so the smoker is not as effective. But I learned to turn off the left burner and the smoker works much better. I love the sear unit and the rotisserie. I also use a round basket to cook meats indirectly with the rotisserie.

I've had three Weber grills this size and style. The other two are still going strong with friends. The first one is about 20 years old. The one I just replaced is 15 years old. I don't think you can beat a Weber.

I do not like the stainless steel it is impossible to keep clean. I would not buy SS if the 470 features were available on another Weber grill the sear unit, the rotisserie and the smoker with its dedicated burner.

Delivery was great. They had a small van and backed in the driveway. The delivery man had it unloaded and ready to wheel anywhere. Assembly was easy once it was lifted from the delivery box it takes two to lift out of the box.

Terrible. I ordered because of the length of the mitt (I often burn my forearms on the upper oven rack). I used the mitt once (and note, it's not a pair, just one). I took a cookie sheet out of a 350-degree oven, and felt the heat immediately through the mitt; it offered virtually no protection, compared to my 10-year old mitts that at least allow me to carry a cookie sheet across the kitchen before I can feel any warmth through the mitt. I'll keep using the old, frayed mitts for now & keep looking for a better replacement.

We bought this in Oct of 2012. In Feb 2013 while doing a routing cleaning, I dropped from waist level onto my backyard grass lawn. When the grate hit the grass it cracked in half! I was quite shocked to see this needless to say. Of course I know cast iron isn't as tough as stainless steel, but come on... it should easily survive a 3 foot fall onto soft grass... A champagne flute would survive that fall if it had landed on grass squarely on its side like this piece did.

Reading the other reviewers comment that they had one delivered broken right out of the box further strengthens my belief that this is made with very inferior quality. I'm shocked to see a "major brand" like Cuisinart putting out this type of product. On the positive side, the grill that this unit goes to works very well and we greatly enjoy it. I will try to locate an alternate grill to put down on this unit so I can enjoy my grill for years to come...
