| About This Brand |
|---|
This brand, known for its durability and dependability, went through an entire line and design change in 2007. Weber is known for its quality products in the midpriced to high-priced categories, and grills that feature coated cast-iron and stainless-steel-rod cooking grates and long-warranty stainless-steel burners. (The company offers a natural-gas version for most of its grills.) Weber recently introduced an infrared-searing station on some of its grills, updated its Q line of portable grills, and added colors to its entire lineup. Weber grills are available at many retailers nationwide. Grills range in price from $130 to $3,000. Note that Weber acquired Ducane about four years ago. |

Comment:
Weber's warranty service isn't worth the paper it's written on. I had to send photos of my problem, then Weber said it was covered by warranty. However I had to continually call them. Finally they said they had no replacement parts, even though the warranty would cover my bbq! They wouldn't do anything more. So if you think the 25 yr & lifetime warranty means anything with Weber, guess again! This is a very disreputable company. It cooked well while it worked, but I've seen some people review Weber as the last bbq they'll ever need. Fat chance!

Comment:
I purchsed this weber 330 Stainless Steel model last year so I have had a good amount of time to test it out. This grill has quality written all over it. I will admit when I first saw the price tag I thought that it was insane to spend almost one thousand dollars on a grill, but after researching for months I always came back to Weber. I would rather buy a good grill once every 10-20 years than a cheap new one every few years. The warrenty on this blows the competition away. I have grilled almost anything one can grill and have been very happy with the grill. For those on the fence about the price it is really worth it. You get what you pay for when it comes to weber!<br /><br />Three 12,666 BTU stainless steel tubular burners<br />507 square inches of primary grilling space for a total cooking area of 637 square inches<br />38,000 BTU maximum output from the main burners<br />12,000 BTU standard side burner under a flush mounted cover<br />10,000 BTU internal booster sear burner<br />Push button electric (AA-battery) ignition<br />Stainless steel rod cooking grates<br />Constructed of cast aluminum and stainless steel (400 series stainless)<br />Dual layer hood with double vaporization system for heat retention<br />Made in the USA by the Weber-Stephen Products Company

Comment:
After 20 years of grilling my family bought me the Weber Genesis (propane). It has been remarkable. My last three propane grills were cheap and the steel rusted out, burners failed, and structure corroded had to trash and buy new after 2 years. This Weber is durable, reliable and functional and easy to maintain. I've had it for 5-6 years, replacing a few parts is easy, with replacement parts easy to find at local hardware store. I grill in January in frigid Chicago and it heats up fast, performs like a champ. Steaks, chicken, fish,pork roasting veggies. After 3 years I had a slight problem with a burner and igniter and called Weber Cust Serv planning to purchase new parts. The service person was excellent, supported the product with the warrantee, which I had forgotten about, and I got parts in 2 days NO CHARGE. When was the last time you had that experience? Instructions made it easy to repair. The product is great and the customer service is knowledgeable and quick if a problem occurs. Buy this. You will not regret it. When this one goes, my next one will be a Weber.
