Pros
- Wirecutter's pick for bigger portions: it 'heated a little more consistently — and with fewer cold spots — than the Q 1200'
- Five years on the cookbox, lid, burner tubes, grates and plastic components in Weber's own table
- 320 square inches of grate and a separate 4,000 BTU Plus burner, on a grill Weber lists at 31.6 pounds
- In stock with Add to Cart on weber.com at the same $449 when we read it
Cons
- 20-pound tank only: Weber's own answer is that it does not recommend a 1-pound adaptor, so this is not a grill for a pocket-size cylinder
- On Amazon it was sold and shipped by BBQ Island Inc, a marketplace seller, and marked non-returnable when we read it on 8 October 2026, so a return is the seller's call, not Amazon's
- Wirecutter: 'It weighs nearly 40 pounds and is quite bulky for one person to carry'
- Critical cards describe flimsy legs and plastic parts, a centre burner that would not light, and a reseller that shipped one of two grills ordered
Build and seller, not heat. Critical cards call the legs 'cheaply made' and broken on arrival (March 2025), plastic 'where it shouldn't be' (January 2025), a centre burner that would not light (October 2024), a metal tray under the grill that fell out when moving it (May 2025), measurements that do not include the side tables (April 2025), and a buyer who ordered two and received one from 'an unknown reseller' (May 2026).

Pro review “Overall, we found that the 2800N+ heated a little more consistently — and with fewer cold spots — than the Q 1200.”— Lesley Stockton, Tim Heffernan and Kathleen Squires, Wirecutter

✓ Safety: no active recall — No active CPSC recall found (checked 2026-09-13). The CPSC Recall API by RecallTitle 'Weber' returned 2 records, #03180 (2003, Summit and Vieluxe gas grills) and #07122 (2007, Genesis 320) — neither a portable. Positive control in the same day's earlier sitting: ProductName 'heater' returned 181 records; the control re-run at this read failed with the API's 'provider failed on Open' error, so this note rests on the Weber query plus the earlier control.
