And do you mean Broil King? Broil King is a quality brand that you can't go wrong with.
As someone who use to sell BBQs I can tell you that Broil Mate, Broil King and Sterling are pretty much exactly the same. They are made by the same company and stamped with a different logo for different retailers. They are a good quality BBQ and they just happen to be Weber's lower end line. The big difference comes down to the parts. On a Weber almost everything is made out of stainless steel. Broil Mate has some stainless steel parts (burners) but the rest of the body is not. There is a lot more plastic on the Broil Mate but they're still great BBQs. I'd say it comes down to how much you are going to use it. My mom's 15 year old Weber is still going strong even after being used pretty much every day including during the winter.
