Yeah I think it's a good price, esp. in Cdn dollars. Looks like they knocked it down from $299, plus it's got good reviews. One thing I need to warn you about though. There were three things I didn't like about my Broil King when I had one. First, they coat their cooking grids in porcelain (it even mentions that on the home depot site). After a while, that porcelain coating cracked on mine. Secondly, mine had twin burners, a left one and a right one. The heat wasn't equal on each side. Like if I cranked both to high, one side was significantly hotter than the other, and that irritated me. Mind you, my Weber is like that as well, but just not as bad, so maybe that's just the way grills are unless you dish out the big bucks. Anyway, third thing is that the ignition stopped working after 1 season.

Okay, you're going to want to kill me, but after remembering all that, I'm wondering why I recommended this brand to you.
