The Weber Genesis II E-410 is designed with a four-component heating system. This is called the GS4 High Performance Grilling System.
The first component of the grilling system is the Infinity Ignition. This component makes lighting and adjusting the temperature of the grill so much easier.
The second component involves the burners. The grill has four rows beneath the grill’s grates which are designed to heat evenly every inch of the grill.
The third component of the system uses “flavorizer bars” to protect the burners from the dripping grease. The “flavorizer bars” allow the grease to heat up to a smoking point which will allow the smoke to circulate through the grill and give the meat or anything you are grilling, an additional smoky flavor.
Lastly, to complete the GS4 component, the grill system features a grease management system that will force the grease to leave the body of the grill. It will then drip into an easy-to-reach drip pan on the exterior. It is not only useful in making it easier for you to clean the grill, but it also helps protect the interior of the body from corrosion.
Aside from the GS4 system, the Genesis II E-410 also has ample cooking space. For barbecuers who like to cook for a lot of people, this grill will be very ideal. The Genesis II E-410 has 646 square inches of cooking space. This should be enough to cater to your barbecue needs, whatever it may be. The grill also has two stainless steel preparation areas on either side of the body to complement the large cooking space. There is also space to store tools or serving platters.

Design
Weber is synonymous with quality and durability mainly because their grills are made of high quality materials. It weighs 189 pounds which is quite heavy. This can be attributed to the body of the grill. The body is made from stainless steel and the interior features cast-iron grates. The exterior of the grill and the grates are coated with porcelain to protect it from rusting. The Genesis II E-410 also features a cooking are of 626 square inches. This means that the grill can cook for up to ten people.

Weber Genesis II E-410 Review
Summary
To sum it up, Weber Genesis II E-410 is an awesome grill even for first time buyers. The New GS4 High Performance Grilling System with Infinity Ignition will make it easier for a beginner to master grilling techniques. It can also be connected with high-tech features like a bluetooth thermometer. Although the high-tech features of the grill need to be purchased separately.
If you have the budget, then we recommend going for it. It also has a huge cooking area and storage space which is what you really want from a grill. Since a huge cooking area usually means that it is a huge grill, it can become a bit hard to assemble. But that flaw is quickly redeemed by a centrally-located drip pan for easy clean-up. We can't stress enough how great that feature is.
The bottom line is, the Weber Genesis II E-410 is a state-of-the-art liquid propane grill that both masters and novices will surely like.
If you have the budget, go for the full-packed version. You won't regret it.
