So, your friends can also be invited to a barbecue evening with the Weber Q1200. In this section, we’ll tell you about all the features and functions that come with the gas grill. There is a variety of customer reviews for both of these grills and many of these customers are happy with the performance.
This model, like the Q1400, is operated electrically. Such that, you do not have to worry over gas cylinders or charcoals anymore. It uses 1560-watts of power for its heating element and can heat up to 280 square inches of cooking space in no time. Added to this, it comes fully assembled and features infinite burner control for easier maintenance of the grill’s temperature.
There are also sturdy front and rear cradles plus the Weber logo branded on the lid of the grill. New ergonomic side handles make it much easier to pick the barbecue up and move it wherever you want. For example, larger grip handles and control knobs are easier to see and use. Just be sure to use this grill outdoors only – as recommended by the manufacturer. Select 2 or more products for side-by-side feature comparison.
Despite its large frame, the Q 1200 only sports 189 square inches of grill space. While this measurement objectively lands in the middle of the grills we tested, it tends to be plenty of room for most travel-cooking needs. If you are just grilling up the meat portion, it is enough to cook 3-4 servings; if you are cooking just for two, it is ample room to grill up both meat and veggies. While it is incredibly easy to use, porcelain-enameled cast iron is meant to be treated with a level of respect commensurate with its cooking performance. Unlike a regular grill surface, you never want to use a wire brush, which will destroy the naturally non-stick coating.
Restyled for 2014, the weber charcoal grill 320 is now the Weber Q 3200. This full-sized gas grill comes with split grates that allow for a grate/griddle cooking combination. Weber Q3200 grill offers the largest cooking space in the whole series.
It’s a great choice if its primary use will be tailgating or camping. Still, I read through the poor reviews for both grills. Some reviewers for either grill stated that the grill didn’t get hot enough. Others complained about how long it took to assemble . Some pointed to the grill’s limitations, i.e. it’s only good for burgers and hotdogs but it doesn’t have enough space to use pots or pans with it.
The portable bbq2200 uses disposable propane canisters but you can also buy an adapter hose to make it compatible with regular propane tanks. The small disposable canisters fall directly in line with the q2200’s portability. Your results will probably vary but according to customers you will probably use about one cartridge per hour.
The Weber Q 1000 is the basic model of the Weber Q portable series. But don’t let the word “basic” discourage you from buying this model. It’s considered a staple in the Weber world and is a great portable propane grill to own. The Q 1000 features a rust resistant cast aluminum lid and body, making the grill lightweight, but still durable.
The built-in thermometer in the lid allows you to monitor the grill temperature closely too. Besides this, the electronic ignition starts the grill reliably every time. With an MSRP of $269, the Weber Q 2200 Gas Grill is definitely one of the more expensive portable gas grills you can buy. However, it’s also one of the largest and most powerful on the market. With porcelain-enameled cast-iron cooking grates, it’s easy to keep clean – no matter what foods or sauces spill out onto the grill.
