My Ducane is one of the post-Weber ones, so not the good ones, but even so it seems like it will last forever. It sits out in the Portland winter every year, covered but still damp 11.99 months a year, and it hasn't rusted at all in 5 years. Everything is stainless, down to the nuts and bolts - hard to find that today. Parts are available, I could replace every burner and igniter for under $60.
