Will that one be sufficient, size-wise? Do you have a particular target price range?

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.

Oh wait. I just realized that you're looking at a Broil Mate, not Broil King. I have no experience with BM. Wait, that sounds wrong. I have plenty of experience with BM. But I have no experience with Broil Mate.

You might poke around BBQ Source Forums (Powered by Invision Power Board) a bit although they're a bit light on Broil King. These guys don't mess around, but are pretty friendly.

I have a "Char Broil" that I got from my fiancees parents a couple of Christmas's ago. It sucks. I can't get rid of it though because , "They'll know."
Regarding automatic ignitions. Do not let this influence your decision. They all are crap. Ever barbecue I have ever owned have has the auto ignite die within a month, on every single barbecue. Get a stick lighter, 2 for a dollar at walmart. |

Also, like semtex says, I've stayed away from porcelain covered burners ever since having one crack. |
