Some would argue that having the knobs facing up is to encourage buying the optional $50 cover, but I'm guessing Weber put the knobs facing up so they don't get bumped when you roll the grill out of a crowded garage. The only problem I have with it is that I miss the charcoal cooked taste of the old Weber kettle grill. I have a Genesis, except it’s not in the exclusive brown color and mine has the side burner.

And I am familiar with the Kenmore grill you are talking about, it's one of our best sellers so far this season. Although I must admit, I was surprised that out of the 4 color options available, vanilla seems to be the most popular. You didn’t miss it, this grill doesn’t have a side burner.

This grill looks almost identical to the Kenmore grill my girlfriend just bought on sale at Sears (except for the controls on the front panel) for $450, except the Kenmore has better casters, it doesn't have the hose hanging down off the side, and it has a side burner (did I miss that on this grill?). Oh, and the Kenmore blue matches the race car...

What I did not like about the Gensis series was the side to side orientation of the burners.
