This is the BEST high end Professional/Commercial rated grill you can get. I owned 3 other high-end $1k-$3k range grills in the past and they were good but does not compare to this one. This grill as any professional-rated appliance might require some adjustments when you install it, such as the openings in the burners, orifice, and even knobs to avoid any "bang" noise from the burners! The igniters in this grill are the best in the industry it uses a glow igniter which is durable, reliable and efficient. It achieves top temperature within 12-15 minutes on high output making it faster than the competition claims. Also, flareups are minimum at least with my configuration! I have only one infrared burner! "I can't speak for those with the ALL INFRARED burners" now of course if you place a super fat piece of any meat, it might have some flareups but that will happen with any grill! Just use some common sense while grilling. I recommend going with ONE INFRARED burner! These infrared burners are super powerful and it might burn your food super fast! Unless you want to have your eye on the food every second of grilling go with the ONE INFRARED burner! Bottom line... this is the best-built quality grill out there, its a grill for a lifetime! I grill an average of 3-4x per week and I do a full detailed cleaning every 3-4 months, like any high-end appliance you have to maintain it. No complaints from here! Excellent grill.

This is our second Lynx grill, and the first one purchased approximately 5 years ago was wonderful... which is what convinced me to spend this much on a second one. The second one was purchased after Lynx's acquisition by Viking and shows a significant decline in quality. The new ceramic burners are a down grade from the previous brass versions, and will wear our over time. No better than "cheap grill" stainless steel burners in my opinion. The ignition system does wear out as well. Not to mention, upon receiving the grill, there was damage that needed to be repaired (2 months to fix...). We are 2 years in to the ownership of our second Lynx, and I would explicitly not recommend the purchase of one.

We love this grill when it works, but the Igniter and FlameTrak system are deeply flawed. The first electrical adapter did not work out of the box. The replacement one worked for a few months and now will not consistently spark. Such a potentially great, beautiful, and EXPENSIVE grill and it jus doesn't work or won't stay lit because they went with a cheap source of power supplies. It also won't stay lit because the FlameTrak system doesn't work properly. Also, they make a big deal about how it is warranted for life. Only the burners are warranted for life. All the parts that never break are warranted for 5 years. The parts that do break are only warranted for 2 years, and you have to pay for labor to have it fixed after a year. So now I have to pay a guy to come unplug and plug in a power supply, which I can do myself if I could just get them to send it to me. But, since it is warranted through BBQ guys I can't go directly to Lynx. I love BBQ guys, but hate this grill. Hey BBQ guys, stop carrying and selling this VERY EXPENSIVE product until they fix this flaw.

4 different repairs in first year of ownership. Performance of grill (when it's not broken) is excellent. But it is usually in need of repairs.

The power to the rotisserie no longer works after aprox 2 years, and the igniters have been intermittent since aprox 6 months, this grill is covered and on a screen porch, the igniters should work better then that. I have a ten year old Weber and the igniters still work perfect!
