I found this on Craigslist. The owner had downsized, and moved the grill to storage but later decided he couldn’t fit it in his new house so he gave it to the movers as a thank you gift. The movers listed it, I sent a $50 deposit and asked them to take the posting down. A few days later, this was dropped off in my driveway:

Most of us have seen pictures of the frontside. I’ve never seen the backside. I think it’s just as nice on the backside.
I spent hours dragging it to the backyard. Casters were shredded and seized. And then it got stuck between my gate. Too excited, didn’t think this one through:

I eventually conceded and ask my wife to help. She already helped me earlier in the week but then, it was to load up and get rid of a grill. Lugging another grill home meant we’re back at zero again. “But…but it’s a Vieluxe.” I stated. She didn’t fully comprehend what I just said, as if it’s another Tuesday and “I’m wheeling in the recycle bin again.”
Casters are stamped with GLC and 3.5, so that’s helpful. A 3/4in wrench and car jack are all that is needed to remove them:

On another thread, Scott, Ed and Bruce had good insight in replacements:

So that’s where things stand. One sore kneecap, a bowed garden gate, 4 shredded casters, and some weird parts that I’ve never seen before, including what my nephew said was a roach clip. I’ll post more on the weird parts later.
