Rusted in just seven months with good care in good

Griddle rusted after just seven months…not really useable. I seasoned it and used it for six months no problem…always clean/covered. Not so rusty I’ll be tossing it…and of course the warranty excludes rust…how convenient.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We appreciate your feedback and we apologize for the frustration you're experiencing. With proper maintenance, we expect the griddle surface to be long-lasting. Rust on the griddle can be treated to renew the surface.
We are here to help! Please look for our email outreach soon. Thank you.
I am very pleased with the design & performance of this griddle. I am new to this style, but I trust the Weber product to be of a superior quality. There is a learning curve if not familiar, so take the time to read and follow the initial set up instructions to prepare the grill top for use. Also be sure to have the necessary accesories on hand.
3 burner griddle from trusted company with a solid warranty. The price was good, 3 burner is a good size for my space. I like the location of the drip dray. Would recommend.
Ever since griddles came out, I wanted to purchase one. I like the idea of cooking on griddle with large surface area. Tried inserts and griddle pans on grill and they just were too cumbersome. Finally jumped and purchased. Now have grill, smoker and griddle. Comments on the griddle it is easy to use and clean. Griddles require more cleaning, but if you maintain the surface it is pretty simple. Watch the online videos. The griddle warms quickly. The heating is a little uneven and you need to watch temperature. It is difficult to have sections of griddle with different temperatures. The cooking experience is nice, but is just a griddle. Perfect for breakfast with family. For other meals it will never replace the texture or taste of a reverse seared tomahawk. Even burgers. It works for the novelty of the smash burger, but if you want juicy big burgers, stick to the grill or reverse sear.
So this will never replace my Weber grill and it doesn’t transform your cooking like a good smoker will. What it does is allows me to cook more outside.
I would recommend this to a friend!
