My goal with this site is to help as many people as possible enjoy and be good at doing the same. Like most gas grills, the Genesis II E-310 scores big in this category. While we’re on the subject of gas, the worst thing about using propane is running out mid-cook. With the built-in fuel gauge, you’ll always know how much is left in the tank. The two-tone gray exterior with that enameled black lid definitely looks the part of a premium grill.
But, this grill does all that with high-end parts, engineering, and construction. This means you get precision control over your ‘cue and elevated performance. The Weber Genesis II E-310 Outdoor Gas Grill promises a superior grilling experience compared to many of its competitors. At Designer Appliances, we have been working closely with Weber for years to offer our customers the absolute best grill lineups while also providing unparalleled customer support. This year, Weber has returned the favor by releasing their Genesis II SE Series grill only available to a few of their select Weber dealers, including Designer Appliances. You won’t find this model at your big box home improvement stores.
The grills in this series also come with electronic igniters, a fuel gauge, and a 10-year burner warranty. Stepping up to the Weber Genesis II E-410, $900, grill gives you four burners and a choice of four colors—crimson , copper, black, or smoke. The cooking surface can fit 28 burgers or more, putting it into our large grill group.
But it is expensive to run a website with more than 2,000 pages and we don’t have a big corporate partner to subsidize us. Meanwhile Weber tells us most buyers are happy with their Smart Grill purchases. The minority of unhappy buyers had other complaints like shipping damage and WiFi connection issues. The blue and red wires come from the main power box which uses six D Cell Batteries for the lights and Weber Connect.
If you think gas grilling no longer has anything to offer, and you’re considering giving it up, you may want to think again. This grill performs beautifully and provides the precision control and versatility you need to think beyond the basics. Use stainless steel cleaner on any appropriate spots on the exterior to keep them looking their best. Warm, soapy water is your best bet for plastic and enameled parts.
Sheet metal with a good paint job, but it holds together well. The real standout features come in the small innovations to the cooking system. This stainless steel gas grill is sturdily built, with thick-gauge steel used in the firebox. The hood is covered with porcelain, which boosts the grill’s heat retention. The E-310 does not feel flimsy at all – the side shelves are sturdy, and there are three accessory hooks on each side for your grilling tools.
A sear station, world-class grilling engine, and side burner to simmer barbecue sauce is your recipe for a perfectly grilled meal. The Genesis II E-335 is equipped with the power and features you need for amazing food – all backed by the Weber 10-year All Parts Warranty. The Genesis II relies on what Weber calls the “GS4 High Performance Grilling System,” which involves three propane weber q burners each rated at a robust 37,500 BTU. That’s plenty of heating power to have at your disposal. The Char-Broil SmartChef, by comparison, has three gas burners as well, but they provide less oomph at just 25,000 BTU apiece. You do get a small side burner with Char-Broil’s SmartChef grill, a feature Weber includes on various grills across its product lines, but not on this one.
It’s an ideal replacement grill or step-up for someone looking to expand their grilling options. It’s ideally suited to grillers who love to cook all the barbecue favorites like steaks, burgers, chops, and more to absolute perfection. Plus, with three burners, you can set up multi zone cooking for roasts, whole poultry, and other large cuts.
