Does Home Depot do a good job with assembly? Or will my OCD self do a
better job? $40 either way isn't really a deal-breaker, but if I can
get someone else to (competently) assemble, why not?

Also, does anyone know if Home Depot will deliver the assembled grill
for free? I know they will deliver unassembled for free but it might
be difficult for me to transport an assembled grill.

Thanks.

The time I had Home Depot deliver something, it was a flat charge of
$50.00.  I had them deliver shingles.  That was a bargain !!!!
My guess is they would deliver the grill assembled or boxed up. Your choice.

If you trust your assembly abilities, I would go for the saving the $40..

Well, now I'm discovering that Home Depot has an exclusive deal with
Weber to offer cast iron grates with the grill I am looking at (The
Spirit 310). Since the grates normally go for about $70 by
themselves, I still come out ahead about $30 if I buy the grill at HD
as opposed to buying it from Amazon and then buying the grates
separately. I think I am probably going to buy it at Home Depot, but
assemble it myself.

Thanks to everyone who replied.
