Underneath the product’s 450 square inch main cooking spot, this state-of-the art grill distributes up to 61,000 British Thermal Units (BTUs).This gives you the ability to sear and grill at high temperatures. The ability to lower the output to just 6,000 BTUs gives you a lot of versatility with this grill. The high quality of the internal components means it will last and perform for a long time.

Guide Review – Napoleon Prestige II (PT450)
The Prestige II (PT450), from one of the best mid-range gas grill maker Napoleon, boasts flexibility that can handle elevated temperature direct grilling to low temperature indirect grilling. Further, from its high BTU production with three burner assembly, it also has a standard rotisserie kit with rear mounted infrared burner.
However, based on my opinion, the product’s standard welded framed cart does not demonstrate its nearly $1,200 price and is not that superior to lower-priced grills.
Beyond that this really is a great grill. The features of design from the easy lift roll top lid to the grease management is fantastic.
The Napoleon Prestige II incorporates world-class stainless steel burners and solid brass control valves that reduce the risk of flare-ups.
This grill comes with the standard limited lifetime warranty, meaning that the parts that really will last forever are guaranteed for as long as you live. The burners and internal components still have a good warranty, which I don’t think you’ll really be needing.
