I've owned this grill for 3 years. I've used it off and on for a total of 5 or 6 weeks, and only on camping trips. Since it was so horrendous to clean it's been primarily used to cook hot dogs and vegetables, and I've used charcoal to cook meats that left a lot of drippings. It looks to be in near new condition but it has quit working due to a faulty regulator. Weber does not want to cover this item past a 2 year warranty even though there is warranty remaining on other parts of the grill, and that this is an item that is known to be a problem with them. I purchased 4 Weber grills over a 2 year period and all of them have had issues. Three of the grills had issues right out of the box. I just completed a second warranty claim on my Weber Genesis II because the warming rack has rotted out, and I will be making a second claim on my Weber Performer because the metal table is covered in rust after only 1.5 years. A friend of mine has purchased 2 Napoleon grills last year and zero issues. I recommend a different manufacturer.
I have 2 of these and Its needs a diffuser/ flavorizer bars . There is too many dead spots and requires a lot of closed lid cooking because of that. Plus the flare ups.The propane piping is only a skinny circular shape that is why it has so many cooler spots and needs a diffuser. I also have the weber go anywhere propane version with a diffuser. It makes such a difference when grilling and yes its because of that diffuser. it grills far better than the traveler.
Great video mate. Out of interest could you put a griddle on either side at the same time to produce a whole length griddle? Or would the two little nobs in the middle stop that?
It comes with a 2 piece grill I brought the optional hot plate extra but was told that I could only use the hot plate on half only something to do with the heat with the hood closed
We bought the griddle hot plate extra but bought 2 and it would not work, so my husband ground down the tabs on one and it fits like a charm. There are two tabs right in the middle that keep it from fitting flush together. So my husband ground down the tabs and a little extra in that space so that they would fit together. Fits perfectly and flush. Wish it would have just come like that though.
Yes the gas bottle rack or bracket was included with the bbq. If yours didn’t have it just go back to where you brought it and they should give you one as mine was missing the gas hose when I opened the box and they just gave me one
I just wish Weber could equip this with the 3 burner precision control system found on the Coleman Roadtrip 285. Unfortunately Coleman surrounded that quality core with cheap crap, so I am leaning toward this Weber.
The bracket or apparatus holding the propane tank... where did you get that thing? I just bought a Weber Traveler, but no tank holder like that came with it. Is it something from Weber?
The bracket for the gas bottle came with the BBQ it was in the box if yours was not in the box I would go back to the store where you bought it and they should give you one but 1st check your manual it shows everything that should come with your BBQ
I javelin this blue one also. It's seems to be exclusive and hard to find. The traveler is tricky as well . Hard to control down the temp. You have to keep opening it
Can say I’ve had that problem with the lid close and the flame on max the temp maxs out at about 250c if I turn the heat down to just about 1/2 it will sit at around 180c with the lid closed
Great looking shishkebab there Mate! Can I ask you where you got the hanger/cradle for the 20 lb. Tank? I would definitely want that and think it’s genius. Looks like you could move the grill and bottle as one, which I cannot do with my Weber Q
And you can move the whole bbq bottle and all around but you must remove the bottle to fold the bbq down. If you watch my unbox video it shows how it folds down
Have had mine for about 4 months. Love cooking on it but the lid likes to fly open when walking it whilst folded. Needs a sturdier locking mechanism to hold the lid down on rougher terrain like grass
There is a plastic latch that fits over a knob on the frame once you fold the unit down that red plastic latch also has a slot in it with a lock and unlock icon on it are you moving it to the lock position before you wheel it
@@Anthsv8 that's the frame lock and its fine. It's the lid lock that's trash on mine. Opens way too easily if the grates shift inside the bbq whilst moving it.
Just an FYI on your problem with the lid lock check the inside of the hood it has some steel brackets on it which when closed hold the grills inside down if those brackets are bent up for any reason they will not hold the grill down when the hood is closed and the grill can jump off it’s perch when moving
