Didn't notice this before.
I guess I'd describe my new grill as a "top end cheapie." It was on sale for $130 at Home Depot. The regular price was in the $200-$300 range. It has a side burner, which I'll probably never use, and a thermostat, which is a feature I'd been wanting as I try to experiment with cooking new things. The nicest feature is the sectional cooking surface, which is much easier to remove and clean. This grill also doesn't require the lava stones, since it has four separate burners and a large cooking surface, indirect heat is provided by turning up a burner in an unused area. I'll probably go through propane faster, but that's not a big deal.
Another really useful thing I picked up recently is a fuel gauge which attaches to the tank. I nearly ran out of gas while cooking earlier in the year - I won't have to worry about that happening again.
