This is a PSA regarding the 5 Burner Ultimate Griddle. The griddle works fine, however the lid has rusted badly in less than a year. This unit has a cover, is used often, and the lid is rusting in 3 different places. Whats worse, is the rest of the unit looks nearly new, but the lid is a different story. Either it wasn't powder coated properly, or it can't handle the heat that is generated and causes the paint or powdercoat to fail. Customer service agent tried to help, but leadership said no, and their answer to me was "sand it and paint with high-temp paint". I have had a couple blackstones and NEVER had this issue with the cabinet. My recommendation if you care about how well your griddle/cabinet hold up, is to AVOID the Pit Boss 5 Burner Ultimate Griddle.
