I bought it new and it has to be at least 13 years old. The grill is built like a tank and I love it. You can always buy parts for a Weber and those cheap big box grills are throw-aways.

My first Genesis lasted 23+ years. I could have rebuilt it again but it was looking tired.
This was at the curb for bulk trash pickup a few years ago down the street from our beach house. It was missing the hinge pins for the hood and the pan that holds the grease trap liners...and it needed a little cleaning.
I ordered the parts for $7.00.
I've owned several Webers over the years as well as other brands. This 2018 Genesis II is as well made as any of them from any time period.

That was a wise pickup and a nice find. I think we paid $1,200 for ours quite a few years ago.
Here is my old Weber Genesis hooked up to the natural gas on the house.
Griddle and Weber Genesis both connected to house propane. Awesome for this lazy guy
That would be great, but I don't have room for both. Next best thing I can do is buy a griddle insert for the Genesis.
That's an excellent, versatile solution. I have the Weber Gourmet System grates...but don't use them anymore and I bought this on Amazon:

It works great sitting over the sear burner and 2 right side burners.
I just place it over the stainless grates.
