Not Portable - Can't use 1 lb cans
on April 8, 2025
Posted by: Mach82
I assumed the Q series were all built for backyard and portable uses. I had a Q1200 years ago, but wanted something bigger for camping/beach trips. I jumped at buying this Q2800N+ because of the larger size and extra burner. BUT I did not realize this is not compatible with the 1 lb gas cans, until I received it and opened the box. Weber should include more photos showing the gas connection and HIGHLIGHT that it is not able to use the small cans. I don't want to haul around a large gas tank for a day or weekend trip. Guess it is better for long term trips where you have room for a large tank.
I now notice the answer is buried in the FAQs, but it needs to be upfront. I watched and read plenty reviews but never heard this mentioned.
I really wanted to keep it, but I have plenty Weber patio grills. I needed a portable option. It is being returned.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great backyard/tailgate grill. Small enough to be portable, large enough to use as your at home grill for a few people. Build quality is what you would expect from Weber, the additional middle burner really helps for high temps/searing. I can get this grill over 700 degrees. The front slide out grease tray is very convenient for cleaning. The removeable side trays are a nice touch, but i am worried about how long those are going to last. They are made of plastic and slide into the grill handles via 2 small plastic tabs. Otherwise I’m about a month in and we grill 3-4 times/week, so far so good.

This grill is terrific. I’ve owned several Weber Grills including a couple Q grills. The turbo feature on this grill ramps the temperature up fast and lets you sear meat/steaks.

Overall pretty happy with this grill. We replaced a Q2200 with this Q2800N+.
Pros - Heat control seems to be improved. Larger cooking surface with only a slight increase in overall size. Second burner offers additional temperature control.
Cons - Will not reach advertised max temperature on a slightly windy day. For a portable grill the grease tray should be secured. Traveling with this grill in the bed of a truck, the grease tray will blow out. This required adding wire ties to hold the grease tray in. Plastic clip on side shelves are flimsy and do not match the price of the grill.
Overall ok, but disappointed in the grease tray and side shelves.

Needs work in: 1. Keep side flip-up trays like on Q1200 models. 2. Spark ignition or gas ignition to center burner needs improvement, too much time delay. 3. Gas line fitting from hose to grill is not identified by size/type, pls. Share that info. Having griddle on one side and grill on other are great work! (Had to purchase griddle separately.)

As a new owner of the Weber Q2800N+, I can confidently say that this grill addresses the few issues I had with the traditional Q models while retaining most of their advantages. One of the standout improvements is the addition of a second burner. This feature allows the grill to reach very high temperatures, even in cooler weather, which was a challenge with the smaller Q models.
The secondary burner also provides the flexibility to cook at lower temperatures, in the 225-250 degree range, making it suitable for low and slow cooking. However, it's important to note that the secondary burner is positioned directly in the center of the grill without any shielding, which can create a hot spot that might cause burning if not monitored closely.
Another change is the design of the side tables. Unlike the legacy units where the tables were on a hinge and could fold in and out, the Q2800N+ requires the tables to be snapped into place and removed for transport. This is less convenient compared to the folding tables of the older models.
Overall, despite these minor issues, I have been very happy with the Weber Q2800N+. It offers great performance and versatility, making it a valuable addition to my outdoor cooking setup.

Love weber grills! I have 6 of them at different locations. Both gas and charcoal.Kettle grills are awesome. Only thing about 2800N is the side trays do fold up into grill like old Q grills. You have to detach and lay side trays inside grill when not in use.

Great portable grill! The three burners get the grill to 500+ degrees quickly and cooks evenly.
