Disappointing De-contenting and Customer Service
on September 2, 2025
Posted by: LongTimeWeberFan
I typically don't write reviews but was compelled to this time. The S-335 I bought 13 years ago gave up the ghost so I bought the same grill since it worked so well. I was very disappointed to receive my new grill and find that while it was two and a half times more expensive than my last one (yes, I do get prices go up) the grill I received was not a well built as the one I had and there are items not one the grill that were on models in the marketing material: 1. there was no folding warming rack (just a small stationary rack) 2. the propane gage was gone (this one blew me away that it would be eliminated) 3. the right side shelf was way smaller than shown 5. the heat shield shrunk from previous models 4. the shelf underneath the grill was taken out. I can't believe they marketing pictures show something other than what I received. I called Weber and after a 30 min wait was told that they took those items out to save cost on the grill and if I didn't like it than I could write a review. So disappointing from a company I have supported through many grills and smokers that I currently own. Would not recommend them.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great grill. Easy to assemble. Weber never disappoints. Heats up quickly and cooks a steak evenly. Highly recommend!

The product was advertised has having stainless steel, grills and cover. Technically it is correct, but Weber uses 400 series stainless verses 300 stainless which will not rust as 400 will. The easy way to tell the difference is 400 series is magnetic as 300 is not. The advertisement is also a marketing ploy plus extra cost to the consumer. Knowing this, I purchased the S-335 anyway and I keep it under cover 100% of the time. The quality of the new Weber's is no where the same as the old units, as my last Weber lasted 15 years, no rust, just worked well. The gas manifold quit, so I was forced to get a new one.

Very early in using this new grill. However, it is much more cheaply made, with a much higher price than my previous Weber Genesis grill. Also, nearly every time I close the lud, the burners go out. Never had that happen before.

Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for the disappointment, and we stand by the quality of our grills. Your grill is backed with a great warranty and the support of the Weber team.
If your grill's burners are going out, it sounds like your grill could be in bypass mode. What’s happening is that the regulator thinks there’s a gas leak, so it reduces the pressure.
Perform a soapy water leak test to check for leaks. If there is no leak, follow these instructions to reset the bypass safety mode. This is not only the reset, but how you want to light your grill each and every time.
Open the lid
Make sure all knobs are in the off position
Turn your LP tank on all the way
Wait 60 seconds
Turn the first burner to start/high
Hit your igniter
Turn on remaining burners one at a time and set each to high
Close the lid
Let your grill preheat to 500-550°F

Great grill. 4 stars only because the side burner will not light by pushing the button and runs way too hot, even on low. I have to use a stick lighter to get it going. Main chamber holds steady at about 350 with 2 burners on low which is about perfect for rotisserie cooking. It is large enough to cook 2 full chickens at once, that way, with my after market rotisserie. You have to remove the grates and put a drip pan under since the grease trap is quite small and is easily overwhelmed if mopping or just general grease dripping. The shelf that was in prior models would have come in handy to put a pan on if the tray gets full and overflows when cooking . Assembly is pretty straight forward and as a 63 year old man working by myself I didn't have any problems that I couldn't get past. As with other reviews, the propane gauge would have been nice but I do like the propane in the cabinet that allows for the side storage which is perfect for storing the grates when using the rotisserie or griddle. I am overall impressed with its capabilities.

This is my second Weber in 5 years. I wanted to go bigger after having a spirit II. So far the grill lives up to it's reputation grilling and quality. There are a couple things I would like to see changed...the insert in front of the griddle should be switched to the back not in the front. A lot of heat rises from that while you are grilling and almost necessary to wear a glove because of the heat. ...the drain hole for the grease cleanup should be bigger by at least half and should be in the back of the griddle. The grease drops down on the flavor bar near the igniter. I can see problems here in the future. It makes more sense to have the grease drop in the back of the grill into the aluminum tray. Last you should include a propane gauge for the tank like the one included in my spirit. Because I live in the south I cook on my new Genesis 4-5 times a week. It does a great job with steak, fish, roasts and vegetables. The half griddle is the right size and looking forward to the wok for stir-fry's soon.

Low quality, tried putting it together and the manifold wouldn’t line up with the metal face plate so the knobs were impossible to put on. Weber then wanted me to put on a new manifold ( no way !). It was also missing the door magnet. The quality is NOT there- clearly. Buy something else for the price.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
