Now I have two people telling me that I should buy the Weber. Can you explain why?
I really do not have any issues where stuff is manufactured. We all use products from around the globe. It is what it is.
I am really feature shopping. The coleman has two side burners and large capacity. Why is the Weber good? Iwill check out the Weber Summit S-650. I do have a local dealer. I am just wondering why?
As far as usage, I found some formulas to calculate propane usage by BTU and tank capacity. Based on those calculations and a tank filled 80% of capacity, here is what I came up with for a full 20lb. tank:
All 9 burners plus the two side burners at highest setting: 3.38 Hours
All 9 burners: 4.42 Hours
Two side burners only: 14.37 Hours
Rottisserie burner only: 22.98 Hours
Let's just say that with my 500 gallon whole house tank, there are no issues, but I can see where changing tanks every four hours when cooking large amounts of ribs would be an incovenience.
