The griddle arrived a bit later than estimated, but I don’t fault Weber with that. It was packed better than anything I’ve seen in years and the pa Kong really impressed me.
Nothing was damaged and assembly was very easy.
Seasoning the griddle was not a problem and I used it that very night…and the videos on Webers website helped make the whole cooking process a success!
I saw a video review that stated the grill wasn’t attractive. I keep a cover on my grill when not in use - who cares?! This griddle works great, and it’s well-constructed and solid! It lights the first time evertime! It cooks great! What more could you want?
If I knew how much I was going to use the griddle going in, I would have stepped up to the 36” model instead. The 28” is a great model, and have had absolutely no issues. I would recommend it to anyone that is looking for a griddle this size. Rather that adding on gimmicky options, Weber put their money where it counts, and delivers the best quality product. Heating is consistent across the cooking surface, and there are no signs of warping or rust like you find with the competition.
The 28” is great for feeding small groups or families, but there are times that I would like to have the extra real estate in the 36” model. In either case, just buy the Weber!
