Weber, New Q300, Gas Grill, Silver, Cast Aluminum Lid & Porcelain Cast Iron Cooking Grate, Includes Q Stationary Cart, Hose & Regulator, Flavorizer System Integrated Into Cooking Grate, Large 393 SQIN Cooking Area With 2 Piece Porcelain-Enameled Cast Iron Cooking Grate, 21,700 BTU, 2 Seamless Stainless Steel Burners, Built In Thermometer & Infinite Control Valves, Bolts Into Stationary Cart & Features Removable Side Tables,
Just in time for the cookout season, Weber expands its popular Q liquid propane barbecue line with the Q 300 propane gas grill. This full-size model maintains and often expands upon the tabletop original's conveniences, while benefiting from more permanent patio installation. The liquid propane grill employs two 13,850 BTU burners to heat its 393-square inch cooking area, providing space for several dozen hot dogs or even a medium-sized turkey.
Weber crafted the grill's tall lid and body in tough cast aluminum, framed by a heat- and moisture- resistant nylon frame with glass reinforcement. A simple push-button ignition fires up the stainless-steel burners. Users adjust the burners' output with a control knob and monitor the heat on a built-in thermometer in the lid. Meat cooks evenly on top of the two cooking grates. Constructed in sturdy cast-iron construction and porcelain enameling, the grates resist warping and rusting while cleaning with relative ease. Drip ducts help direct and collect greasy drippings. Two polyethylene side tables attach to create extra preparation space. Spatulas and tongs can be hung from the tool holders on the grill's frame. The provided regulator hose connects the grill to a separately purchased 20-pound propane tank, which stows unobtrusively on a lower shelf. Weber supplies users with hardware to bolt the grill in place and also bestows their Q cookbook. To clean the cooking surface, use mild detergents and avoid steel wool. The grill requires some minor assembly. Weber offers a limited five-year warranty for this item. With the lid closed, the grill measures 44 by 36-1/2 by 22 inches. This product weighs 84-2/3 pounds upon shipping. --Jessica Reuling

Fabulous Grill.. Easy to Assemble Compact Quality:
First, thanks to Amazon for offering great products and service, and the Amazon community for sharing experiences and tips.. particular thanks to the poster who pointed out the first two screws get the only washers.. and where to find the axle! This grill has been well reviewed by many, so I'll keep this to a minimum with a few extra comments. 1. Fast! I ordered this at midnight on Friday night and it was on my doorstep at 10 AM on Monday morning.
2. The box is heavy (75 pounds) and large..... more info
Weber 300 grill is great!:
I chose this grill after reading reviews on many grills and am pleased with my choice. It is hot, cooks evenly, and does not flare up. It is made of quality materials and I expect it to last for years. It is big enough to do the job, but not one of those huge grills that take up the whole garage. We love it, and I would recommend it to anyone.
Some drawbacks:
First, the good news. This grill is stylish in appearance and easy to assemble. It seems to use less gas per hour than other similarly sized grills yet gets as hot as needed. There are, unfortunately, two problems with the cooking grates. They are porcelain-coated cast iron. The cast iron is good because it holds the heat. However, the cast iron surface is not smooth, and even with the porcelain coating foods are more likely to stick even with careful use. Cleaning instructions from Weber are only... more info
Mostly good:
I purchased a Weber Q 300 Propane grille last month (08/08) and find it to be a quality made, well put together item. The only negative feature is that after only one month the electric ignition is not working, and I have to light the burner manually. I have not yet had the time to check into this to find the cause of the problem.
