I was given a genesis E-310 by my neighbor in relatively decent shape, bottom panel was rusted, and legs/sides in solid shape. I replaced the burners, flavor bars, and igniter, and rust treated the bottom panel, and will replace it at a later time. Cleaned up real nice. Cook box is in OK shape, but was going to try to see if I could get a new one on warranty through my neighbor or something.
Is this grill worth it as a keeper? or should it be the gift grill?
I'd like to end up with a grill on the patio and the new SS platinum on my deck, as ridiculous as it sounds. Ideally a 13 flavor bar and 5 flavor bar grill, but not necessarily required.
I started out with a Genesis Platinum 3000 or 4000 cabinet with wide leg rusted frame that I have repaired/crudely patched but yet to finish, then I picked up this "new" SS Platinum C and was given the above mentioned E-310. Along the way I have also acquired, all for free 2 silver Bs, and 3 Genesis 1000s. I'd like to gift one to a close friend, flip 1 or 2 to sell, and keep 2 for my own selfish use.
So how do the E-310s cook? are they good grills or are the older 5 bar grills that much better?
