Prestige Pro 500

Premium 304-stainless build with infrared sear front-to-back.

$2,199Approx. MSRP

Good for someone who wants a serious mid-size backyard grill with rotisserie and searing built in and doesn't mind paying more for stainless build quality, but skip it if you specifically want a proper slow-smoking box.

Pros

  • Very even heat across the main grates in independent testing
  • Infrared rear rotisserie burner works well for roasts
  • Strong stainless steel burners and lifetime warranty on major parts
  • Sizzle Zone side burner sears steaks hot and fast
  • Loads of cooking room — 760 sq in feeds a crowd

Watch-outs

  • Expensive for a 4-burner grill
  • Cabinet interior feels basic (no shelf, low door hooks) for the price
  • Smoker box underperforms Napoleon's claimed 45-60 min smoke time
  • Heavy (210 lb) — pick its spot and leave it

Known niggles

  • Integrated smoker drawer/tray burns wood chips too fast instead of smoldering (chips catch fire rather than smoking slowly)
  • Cabinet is mostly painted steel that can chip/rust over time, not full stainless
  • Warming rack is thin chrome wire that can warp near the rotisserie burner
