Stops short of being great – We bought this as a quicker and more convenient alternative to our Weber Gas Assist Performer which takes quite a bit of time to get to working temperature but produces great tasting food. It's main use, therefore, is to cook a couple of steaks in a reasonably short time and it does an acceptable job at that. It doesn't quite generate enough heat… Read more
to really sear thick steaks - using a temperature probe it's only just over 200° at the grate after pre-heat compared to the Performer which can get over 260° - plus you don't get those lovely charcoal flavours. It is much easier to clean than the Performer (it's much smaller to start with) and as it lives on a covered deck and has the fitted cover, it's only the cooking surfaces that need anything other than a wipe over. Overall we're happy with it and it is really good at things like a quick breakfast grille (eggs/bacon/sausages/tomatoes) where the higher temps aren't needed and you get a speedy result.
Not the best – Ok, a lot of hype however. Don’t produce a lot of heat. I’ve also come across 3 that have had regulator problems too, apparently common. Wouldn’t buy another one but not throwing it in the dump. Show details

Carnivore Must Have. Compact, Portable, Incredible Flavours. Hubby is King on the Weber – Weber Q 2200 Series with Patio BBQ Cart Carnivore Must Have. Compact, Portable, Incredible Flavours. Hubby is King on the Weber. If only I knew that after 40 years of cooking for my family, that this purchase would have my hubby cooking up a storm on the Weber and loving it! I would’ve bought this years ago. I’d long admired the compact style… Read more · 3
of the Weber and finally made our first purchase late 2022.
Unlike our old oversized bbq, this Weber requires limited space on our narrow upstairs balcony, with easy direct access to our kitchen.
Convenience to pop in the boot of our car and take to the beach or in the Motorhome when we hit the road which is what we initially purchased it for.
Hubby has been learning from the masters how to cook all kinds of meats to perfection by watching numerous videos on YouTube. He’s never shown this much interest in cooking prior to purchasing this Weber.
If you take the time to learn it is worth it as everything comes out tasting salacious, incredibly mouthwatering and full of flavour. This is an exceptional, well designed bbq that is far more frequently used than any other bbq we’ve ever owned. Less time for me in the kitchen which is a first and I love that.
The Weber is relatively easy to clean. With fold in side tables that can be easily stored under the lid. Large domed lid to fit a decent size chook or roast and slow cooked to perfection. Stylish portable stand on castors to move with ease if required with hooks to hang utensils, gloves etc. Weber Q cover that fits perfectly over the top to protect from the elements.
Half hot plate and half grill are ideal for our needs. The grill brush makes cleaning the grates effortless in cleaning. The built in temperature gauge helps to achieve the ideal heat. Investing in a quality digital thermometer is a must to get any meats cooked to the correct temperatures.
Roasting pack and rotisserie are up next and on the 2023 Christmas list of gifts this year for hubby. He’s keen as to master these and I am happy to oblige and eat everything that comes off the Weber. Our adult sons are impressed with their Dads endless enthusiasm as previously they mostly manned the bbq. The compliments keep on coming and that only feeds his willingness and excitement to keep on cooking on the Weber.
We have a family of 7 adults and hubby can cater for everyone on this incredibly compact medium size Weber. Cooking in sequence, sausages or chicken nibbles, steak (then rest), onions and eggs no problem.
Great investment considering the cost. The design, functionality, portability are well thought out. And most importantly, everything cooked in the Weber tastes second to none.
Great after sales service – Have owned a weber BBQ for 15 plus years. My Push Button Igniter stopped working properly and sent an e-mail to weber about it.. within a day had a reply and within a week had a new Igniter delivered to my door all free of any costs to me. Fantastic service and product. just purchased another Baby Q for our Caravan. Thanks Weber. Show details · 1
Outstanding Unit – This is our 3rd BBQ. The original was a Weber, hard to clean, temperamental when it came to lighting it and not all that great. Enter top of the range Heston Blumenthal Furnace. Huge BBQ space / grill section, funky design, but questionable heat distribution and expensive to buy. When it was stormy the built-in-one aluminium legs were lite and… Read more · 1
wobbly and made it tip over. Sold that after a few years, too. Enter the Weber Q Premium 2200. Lights first time, every time. Gets really hot without having hot spots, easy to use and clean and my brother in-law, who is the 'know it all Greek BBQ King' (self-proclaimed) cannot get enough of using it when he comes over and loves the results. It gets really hot, really fast, the thermometer is very helpful and we absolutely love this unit. We mostly keep the lid down and the flavour of the meat and speed of BBQing is better than the other two. My highest recommendation. A++++
Can’t even build the thing – Would love to use the BBQ but have given up in the construction phase. Unless you have a master builders license, forget about it. Box has been good for the kids though Show details
Hi Jim, we'd love to talk you through some of the assembly if that would help?
Worst bbq I've ever owned MADE OF PLASTIC – Bought it as it has a ridiculous hype and following so thought it must be good... I really can't understand the hype, it was hopeless at cooking steak, after way too long to heat up once steak hit the grill it cooled down and stewed the steak and yes had the lid down, OK so tried chicken, same thing took way longer than all other bbqs, so realised… Read more
the only thing this is good for is low heat cooking like roasts, so tried a lamb roast, lamb dripped into tray cause flare ups and then a small fire which I put out and removed meat turned it off, ate dinner and then when cleaning later noticed it was lopsided!! The thing had melted the frame WTH! WHO MAKES A BBQ OUT OF PLASTIC. the only insulation from the frame is a small washer.
I followed all the nonsense videos on you tube about cooking. I took it back to shop where I bought it and guy says never seen that happen, (quick Google search says its common) Shop dragged it out for months getting new parts, as soon as they arrived, the price of crap was on the net for sale, never will I own one again.
Oh and the other thing sunbeam innova and gasmate odyssey 2 bbqs have is control over both sides whereas this bbq has one control for the whole thing which is also a Pita as you have to use one heat setting for all that's being cooked.
