That's just flat > out ridiculous. I agree! We bought a Sears propane barbecue shortly after we moved here to Los Alamos (this was about December and the price was markedly discounted). We used it several times the following summer. The next summer I went to use it and found the gas regulator had died. I bought a new regulator from Sears. It worked fine that summer, but like its predecessor, was inoperative the following summer. (I guess they didn't like the cold winter weather.) I bought a new regulator, but not one from Sears (from someone who advertised on Amazon). It has continued to work in the serveral years since and has lived through several winters.
