Which is better for a large family or party?

The Mesa 77352. Six burners, 72,000 BTU and 900 sq. in. of cooking space handle far more food at once than the four-burner Weber.

Which is better for a small patio?

The Weber Spirit E-425C. At 29 in wide it fits spaces where the 61.8 in Mesa will not.

The Weber has the stronger long-term reputation and parts support. Mesa owners report rust-out after about two years of heavy year-round use, though its 304 stainless burners and grates resist corrosion.

Is the Weber worth the extra money?

Only if size, sear performance and brand support matter more than capacity. The Mesa gives you more burners, more cooking area and a rotisserie for less.

Does either come with a rotisserie?

The Mesa includes a stainless rotisserie kit. The Weber does not; you add Weber Crafted grillware separately.

Can I use natural gas with either?

The Weber comes in propane or natural gas. The Mesa 77352 is propane only.
