This may help. Wish I had been a smarter shopper, b/4 I bought a Thermos at
Target. I got it for what I thought was a great price of under $200, that's
after they had it on sale, and I got so much off for opening a Target
charge. It was over $400, but according to about.com, I bought a piece of
junk. Oh well.

Weber genesis is an excellent grill and affordable. If you can spend more,
IMHO the best grill made is the cape fear classic by Wilmington Grill.

I bought a weber several years ago and really like it. As the other response,
it has independent burners, a nice thermostat and the cylinder has a
indicator to tell you how much gas is left. I like the roomy side shelves to
put supplies, etc. I went to the librar and read consumer reports and weber
was recommended. It is sturdy and worth the price as it will outlive
cheaper ones. GO for it.

I sure like my Vermont Castings. The porcelain front looks like new at
three years now. The stainless steel cleans up nicely with the 509
degreaser from the dollar store. The porcelain clad grills burn right off,
or a little brushing helps knock off the rest. I have yet to have it NOT
start on the first click of the clicker. The clicker is one of the most
substantial I have seen on ANY barbecue grill. The thing weighs a lot, and
is on nice casters. I bought two Aussies for my rental properties, but that
was because they were on sale. If I had to buy another for one of my
houses, I'd go Vermont Castings in a heartbeat. HD carries them, as does
others. Even available in natural gas. I have seen the thermometer go up
to 600 degrees.

Kinda sounds like I'm sold on them, doesn't it? Around $400 on sale.

DO NOT try to lift the box yourself.

I have had a Weber three-burner model with controls on the right, fold-out
work surface on left, a really good thermometer for interior air
temperature. Webers tend to be more expensive than some big box store
models, but I am happy with performance, easy to clean, and myriad
accessories always available long after you buy it.
Go for the cast iron grill - the stamped steel one I have sucks. It warps,
and is hard to clean.
Also second the rec to consult Consumer Reports - it's worth a trip to the
library.
