WeberQ1000 Liquid Propane Grill, Chrome

outstanding grill. bought these based on other's reviews. we've had a couple of larger grills. it's now just the 2 of us. we use this on a patio table with an adapter for the large propane tank. it cooks everything with ease: large steaks with bones, pork, lamb, chops, chicken wings drumsticks breasts, vegetables, ... cooks evenly over the entire grill surface. we can easily and quickly barbecue for 4 people. it's extremely gas efficient. we grill 2-3 times/week for 2 months and have used a quarter tank of gas.

We downsized to an apartment that has a small porch, and still wanted to be able to grill. This has worked out great. Big enough to grill a lot for two or a single meal for 4. Small enough that it fits on a small end table, and easily stores underneath it or in the kitchen pantry. We use the little camping propane canisters to keep things really small. We don't travel with it, but it would be fantastic as a tailgating grill.It is very light, most of the weight is well spent in the grill racks. I really like the porcelain coated cast iron. On our old charcoal grill (which we miss but do not have room to safely use) we loved the cast iron racks, and I was unsure about what the porcelain coating would be like. Definitely lower maintenance. I like it.This is my first gas grill in a long time, I am more used to charcoal. It does not get super hot, but hot enough. I don't think it would work for some of the open-lid high temp searing that I could do with the charcoal grill, but if I keep the lid closed it works for everything I have asked of it. It can take about 10 minutes to get up to temp.Q1000 vs Q1200We were looking at the Q1000 and Q1200 models, and decided the Q1000 was a better bet for us. The three main differences that I could see were the fold out shelves, slight extra lid height, and thermometer on the Q1200 for $30 extra. I saw the Q1200 in a store and thought the shelves were so flimsy as to just be in the way. I would probably just take them off. The extra height seemed unnecessary, and if anything I thought would waste heat. And the thermometer..... well I really don't know what to think of thermometers that come on cheap grills.So we saved the $30 getting the Q1000, and then for $16 I bought the "Bayou Classic Grill Thermometer"https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003VEG5SS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1Bigger, much easier to read, and well reviewed. Plus, I was able to mount it down low closer to the grill surface. With a cordless drill it took 10 minutes to install. Drill a hole bolt it on... that simple. Testing it in boiling water is was within 2 degrees of accurate.

This grill is awesome! It’s small but super powerful—perfect for camping, tailgating, or just quick dinners. Heats up evenly and is easy to clean. It’s super simple to use, and the size makes it great for smaller spaces. It’s new but so far no complaints!

My second “Q”, the first lasted maybe 15 years replacing the burner once. This is just as well made, very happy.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I had a larger version of this product when there were two people in the household, it was great. When I downsized to just myself, I gave it away. Been looking for a replacement for a couple of months now. Saw that this was a good price. Looked at other dealers and because of prime free shipping was able to save money and still get it within a couple of days. Gave it 4 stars because it never mentioned that you needed to by the regulator and supply line if you were using a gas grill tank. It was mentioned that it was liquid propane and that a tank was needed. However, it never mentioned that if you were using a regular grill tank, you would need to purchase a supply line with a regulator separately.If this had been mentioned, then I would have purchased said item at the same time. I was very lucky (because it was the third of July and around 5.30 when most stores are closed) to be able to purchase a supply line with a regulator.After getting that item set up was very easy. Cooked out on the 3rd and 4th. Cooked a pound of bacon for the week. Also cooked Chicken and shrimp. Love it.This is a great small grill for multiple items or just one meal. Will be using it all year round. Summertime I can use it without heating up my kitchen and it the winter I can have barbecue whenever. I am looking forward to making smores any time of the year.

The Weber Q 1000 propane gas grill worked great on it's 1st RV voyage. We used it almost every evening. It is a good size to store in an RV and not to big & heavy to carry. We grilled a variety of food & everything cooked evenly. It is easy to set the flame from high to low with the large control knob. Cleaning the grill is relatively easy with the Weber 12 inch 3 sided Grill Brush we purchased. Juices drain into the disposable aluminum drip pan so that part is a snap. I did soak the porcelain coated cooking grates in soapy water when we got home & now they look like new. I think this is going to be a great little grill & will last for a long time. Weber knows what they are doing when it comes to grilling. If you have a more than 3-4 people in your family you may want to consider the larger Weber Q 2000.

Perfect for 1-2 people. I’ve always used Weber charcoal grills and loved them. This is my first of their gas offerings. It is fantastic and more versatile than some may think. Plenty of videos online from happy grillers to confirm that. Easy to clean, beautifully designed. Availability of accessories, parts and support should factor into your decision to buy any grill, and Weber’s brand speaks for itself. Looking forward to many delicious meals from this grill.

Best compact grill ever!! I still have my weber and it's been over 20 years and it has traveled the States!
