This is a great griddle. We bought the Weber based on many favorable online reviews and our ownership experience with a Weber gas grill that is now nearly 20 years old.
We haven’t been disappointed: well-made, even heat across the entire surface, lots of heat when you need it, and plenty of storage and tables. The temperature readout is nice, too.
Works great (so far). Chicken, steak, breakfast, especially smash burgers. Makes cooking some of your favorite foods easy and best part, a lot easier to clean then a stove. I am soon to be 41yrs old, grown up using weber charcoal grills. This griddle is on a whole new level.
Very good product. Coming from a grill, takes a bit longer to heat to ready temp. Kinda obvious why. Cleaning is a breeze. Very consistent temps except on the very outer edges. No issues with windy conditions. Size fits a medium size party well.
Its big....its heavy.....and I love it! Even though it had a big dent in the hood cover I still put it together instead of going through the hassle of reboxing and sending back. Even though this griddle is supposedly pre seasoned I went ahead and did the seasoning process a few more times. It cooks awesomely. But there is a learning curve when switching up from a gas grill to a griddle type. I watch a few you tube videos on comparisons of different manufacturers and they really are all very close in performance....but Weber griddles can cook at a lower temp than most and this was the reason I bought a Weber. Its well made and looks good on the porch!
I’m glade I looked into all the griddles and chose the Slate 36. It’s everything I wanted. A bit more than I wanted to pay but worth it. So good with in a week my father got the same unit.
Great grill and heat control is excellent. Clean up is simple and not having to season is a really nice. The only criticism is the assembly instructions are simply photos and could be improved a great deal. The storage cabinet below are a real plus and have lots of room.
