Hi all!
Just purchased my very first Weber grill yesterday, and ended up with a Weber Spirit E-310 GBS (Gourmet BBQ System) exclusively sold by Home Depot.
I haven't assembled the thing yet, as I got a little curious as to what the specific differences between the "original" e-310 and the GBS are.
As far as the looks goes, only thing different I can see is that the doors differ - the original has a metal door covering the storage unit, the GBS has a perforated rubber/plastic cover.
The grates are different too - the GBS comes with a cut-out for the BBQ system and includes the griddle, the original is - well - original, normal grates. The GBS is stated to have Cast Aluminum vs Porcelain on the original - which is preferable?
Burners ect looks and is stated to be the exact same...
I got the grill for $475 as they had it marked wrong - should have been $499...
So, to get to my question - have any of you used/seen/reviewed the GBS?
I can't find anything online about it, and I want to ensure I didn't purchase an inferior product...
I can still take the thing back, but seems to me the two are almost identical, except for the changes listed above...
Correction: Just saw one review online now:
