I agree the Weber grills last, my Silver B is about 14 years old (I think) and I am finally going to have to replace the crossover bar, the flame bars are fine. I have replaced the flavorizor bars as I had the metal ones that rusted out I guess you have to clean them once a decade, now I have the stainless bars and the cast iron grates, I cook year round but from Nov to April it is too cold to clean the grill so when it lights up and catches fire all over, well that is my cleaning
