I have buyers remorse since I should have purchased the Weber 36" griddle instead of the 28". The griddle itself is great with ALMOST constant heat distribution from top to bottom and side to side. Invest in a heat thermometer gun to check temp of griddle top.The problem is the griddle top warps and the grease puddles to one side as a result. Also the gas regulator hose is to short if you want to add a gas gauge to see how much propane is left in the tank.
Very pleased with this griddle. Mobile but sturdy; solid. I compared this to a competitor's griddle and it was flimsy in comparison. Excellent even heat distribution across the griddle surface - no hot or cold spots. Cooking temps are easy to control.
i love this grill. my husband likes to cook on his acorn but i love the griddle. i have made a few meals on it so far. fried rice, philly cheese steaks and breakfast. it cooks everything perfectly.
I love cooking on my new Weber 28” griddle. I’m amazed how easily it is to griddle the protein, chicken, hamburger, or steak, along side vegetables. I don’t have to worry about any of the food falling between grates or fire erupting all around. I also love how I can have different zones of heat so I can placed finished foods aside to the cooler zone and keep cooking the rest of the meal. Nothing like it! I won’t be going back to a grill ever.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great looking grill and really impressive performance - as expected from Weber. Gets to heat quickly and nice even distribution based on a few cooks so far. Ability to have different temp zones is a huge plus as well. Location of grease tray is much preferred over other griddles I've seen. But most importantly, this thing is just a blast to use.
Makes for a great addition to an existing smoker/pellet grill (my situation), but I think easily versatile enough to be your only grill as well. 28" was perfect size for us - doesn't take up too much space but cooked up a breakfast for 8 no problem (if you're regularly cooking for more than that the larger version might be helpful).
The style and look of the grill are great. We seasoned our grill as instructed and it went smoothly. When used our grill for the first time, it was great. However, on our second usage, the grill seems warped and wobbles.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great griddle - my first try at griddling. Nice features, lights reliably, heats evenly. Downsides: only two wheels - hard to move around. Construction kind of flimsy, but, I guess, good enough. It's great, but I'd say it doesn't quite measure up to Weber quality.
Great for breakfast, egg, pancakes, bacon and potatoes! So far have also used it for steak and burgers. Steak came out great, 5 - 7 minutes on high for each side depending on temperature preference. Equal to a good steakhouse!
