Right now we are using a Napoleon Prestige 500 series and love it. Being made in Canada is important to me and we paid for it.
Having lived in NFLD previously I might suggest staying away from cast iron anything, even the "ceramic coated" ones. I had a Broil King BBQ when I was there and though the case did ok, however, I was replacing grills and other internals steady just from rust. The salt air is a challenge anywhere in the Maritimes.
I bought a Charbroil Professional "Trueinfrared" for about $450 that had handy, smaller removable Grates and "liner's" that were awesome and easy maintenance. However I see the newer ones are "coated". Mine had stainless grills. That thing was awesome, almost never any flare ups. I would still have it, however, my wife sold it when she gave me the Napoleon for my Birthday a couple years ago.
