This is the third little Weber I've had in the past 20 years - I've never worn one out; the first two were stolen!  I like the locking handle on the new model.  One great feature of these grills is that when you are done  cooking, you can close all the vents and the fire will go out in about  15-20 minutes, saving whatever's left of your charcoal for the next time.  With the handle locked, it won't spill in the back of your pickup on the  way home.
