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!

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.

Bought a month or so ago with stand. Stand was a little confusing for the average person to assemble.
I like the grill for its quality and cook ability. I am, however disappointed in the temperature range. It does a great job with even heat distribution on the plates and is large enough for roasting,etc.. The problem is, however, at the lowest setting it maintains a temperature of 350 degrees. This makes it impossible to use the “low and slow” method of cooking items such as ribs, pulled pork, etc., which is something I so frequently! At this price, I find this to be a problem. I am a 25yr experienced kitchen mgr!
Also, the rotisserie add-on is far too expensive for the limited use it would get!
If it weren’t so cumbersome to prepare for returning for refund, I would probably do so.

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.

I haven't gad a chance to use this grill yet but its built solid. Very little assembly from box. This BBQ is also very slick looking. Heavy duty cast iron cooking grates.

Great size for around pool the grill is a 5 star typical great Weber quality. The cart that holds it and the plastic side shelves are sketchy. I could see both collapsing the shelves well your food is now on the ground but if that cart collapses while your cooking probably in flip flops or barefoot remember it’s
Perfect size for pool .

I bought this as a replacement for a grill at my second home in the NC mountains. It is on a wide covered porch. Most grilling is done in the afternoon or evening and the porch faces West, making this a perfectly scenic spot.
Assembly was easy. I have the grill perched on a stable preexisting table. I like that the dome is taller than the previous grill. The two piece grate is substantial and easier to clean than a one piece. The ignition works fine, I really like the ability to crank up the burners to sear food or use the center low and slow burner for larger, tougher cuts

Incredible gas grill!
on February 2, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a weber kettle grill I usually use for all grilling needs. Some people aren't a fan of charcoal, which is what had me considering a gas grill. This grill is bigger than expected, where it has almost the same cooking area as my kettle. I thought it was going to be a little smaller, but that's no big deal. It's still portable, and has side tables that extend out so you don't need a table. You do, however need something to put the grill on when you're cooking, unless you got a stand with it as well. Cooking plane is steady heat cast iron racks, so they heat pretty evenly. Nice product!
