Why I will never buy Weber BBQ again

I bought a Weber Performer in 2016 to upgrade to a much bigger BBQ with a more modern look. I was hoping to buy one that would last forever. I also purchased the Weber cover for the BBQ. After one year, the Timer stopped working, and the BBQ cover deteriorated. Due to my busy life, I never contacted Weber regarding the warranty. In 2019, the BBQ table broke. I thought that was enough. I searched to see if other folks had the same issues. Lo and behold, the Weber Performer plastic table was breaking both lefts and rights all over the world. I read some folks got a free metal version replacement from Weber. I contacted Weber UK, who told me the plastic table only has a 2-year warranty. I had to say to the Weber UK customer service agent, no' on your Weber website, it states all plastic parts have a 5-year warranty. In the end, Weber replaced the performer plastic table with a metal version, the BBQ cover and the one-touch cleaning system for free. I was told the rusty frame and the faulty timer only have 2 2-year warranty. Weber UK said I would have to buy the timer for £19.89. 
Will I ever repurchase a Weber BBQ? Hell NO!! 

This BBQ is not weather-sealed, and whatever paint Weber uses is not weatherproof. The timer will stop working in one year.
My Weber Performer shows signs of rust.
Weber sells expensive items that are cheaply made in China.
Why should I pay over £400 for a BBQ and then, in less than three years, have it become a rust bucket with a broken table and a faulty timer?
Live and learn. 

Stay away from Weber BBQ if you live in the UK.

They are Rust Buckets. Cheap China-made RUBBISH.
