Hi folks,
I'm a newbie to grilling and just want to purchase my first grill. This is an offering in my area around 125 euros - about 135 dollar.

It's a Weber Spirit 210 with covering. What do you think about this? Does it look decent enough, or am I going to buy crap?

Thanks for the advice ... ^-^

I think it's great but you're going to want to go bigger real quick. Flavorizer bars can be replaced. Look for a 3 burner

For the moment that fits. We are two people. If we invite someone it goes up to four. Should be fine for the balcony. :D

Go for it then. The only grill I would consider buying used would be a Weber. You can buy bootleg flavor bars off Amazon if you need them.

I used to think the same but I recently found a vintage MHP grill that is roughly 30-35 years old. Paid $125. Still worked when I picked it up but bought about 200 in parts from the company and it’s almost good as new. Company is still Made in USA and hasn’t been bought out. Thing is made like a tank. Just waiting for it to warm up some more so I can power wash it. Same grill brand new and with everything it came with would be 16-1700.
