The heat output and distribution through the grill plates are nothing short of amazing. Having used a number of other BBQs over the years I did not expect what i got here.

I have only used it once so far, but working well. Looks nice. Only down side is we brought it to fit into an outdoor kitchen. The cavity made for the bbq fits well but due to where the hoses are under the bbq you have to cut out the bench top or prop it on the ends to sit higher off the bench.

We bought the 1100E with a trolley a few weeks ago for the coming summer BBQ season. Already, it's a regular event to cook with it, and we've hosted several gatherings using it. Couldn't be happier with the performance. The ignition's quick and flawless, the burners are easy to control the temperature on, and the side burner is exactly like cooking on a gas stove. If you've an extended family coming over, the hotplate and grill have the space to keep several options cooking at once, or you can just cook for two and it's equally happy to oblige without feeling like you're wasting gas. The entire unit's quite simple to keep clean, and there's plenty of storage options and space on and in the trolley if you need it for all the usual BBQ accessories. It did take a while to assemble, especially the trolley, as it is quite solidly constructed and some of the screws to hold it together are awkward to get to, but this is something you'll do once, and probably never need to worry about again after. And once it's together, it looks good, works great, and does everything you'd want a BBQ to do. Looking forward to adding the rotisserie option to it, and to many years of future BBQ'ing!
