Best Bbq ever
Love our Weber. We cook on our bbq atleast once a week, and more so now it is so hot indoors to use the oven (QLD). We cook lots of red meat as well as roasting perfectly moist chickens and pancakes in the nick of time for our hangry kids. Easy to keep clean between cook ups and our bbq cover keeps it looking as good as ever when not in use and hasn't aged even with our harsh sun and summer storms.
Purchased in December 2021.

Excellent
We bought Weber a couple of years ago and we are absolutely loving it.
It cooks fast and efficient, it is also a decent size so you can fit a lot in. There it is also a space for a hot plate which you would need to buy separately, but it does make different as you can cook your grill and hot plate stuff at the same -- great for family meals when you have a few people at your BBQ.
Highly recommend, the best BBQ for me so far

Really happy and disappointed
Our shiny new Weber is good to fire up . Our first cook, a small turkey, was a success
Can’t wait to try more
The only disappointment is with the plastic trolley
I purchased online and the pictures look terrific, the only description I could find about durability was for the bbq, I should have looked further, when I unpacked the delivery I expected a metal trolley. I certainly didn’t expect plastic side arms . A little Tacky for the price. The design of the trolley is also tricky, it’s actually difficult to move . More difficult than my old kettle by far, Not a feature to impress

The best BBQ I’ve owned
Had my Weber Family Q for two years. It is one of the best things I’ve ever bought.
So easy to keep clean with a wire brush and cooks the best flavoured meat that I’ve tasted on any gas bbq.
I would never go back to your standard four or six burner bbq.

Good but Small
Have had this for a few years now and it has performed well. Took a while to master it though. Tend to cook in trays to minimise cleaning as there is no such thing as an easy to clean BBQ. My only complaint is the size which precludes cooking for more than about 6 people.

Great BBQ!
The Weber Q family is a perfect size. Lots of room to cook but isn't a bulky unit. Cooks steaks perfectly. So easy to clean and I love all the accessories that you can purchase to enhance cooking eg.pizza stone. Very happy with the bbq so far, an excellent purchase.

Enjoyable cooking experience
Yes the weber is expensive for what it is, but I bought it based on feedback from weber owners and the service reputation which seems to be the best in the biz. Really enjoy cooking on the Weber, roasting meats is amazing, with an Aldi remote temp probe for 15 bucks it becomes the perfect cooker that really brings out the flavor of your meat. Its compact and takes up less room than our old BBQ and cooks better of course!

Best BBQ
The best bbq we feed a family of 4 every night with it does the best job . It is a great size for storage and very easy to use . It is fantastic for roasts, steak, even casseroles and cakes. Pretty much does anything your oven can do without heating up the house.
Low on gas usage and cooks things so quick.
Its great that it does not take up too much room and is nowhere as bulky as other types of BBQs

Much better than old style BBQ
To compaired this to a traditional BBQ would be an insult to the Weber Q. For starters it's very portable so you no longer also need to own a portable stove. It cools very evenly and the heat is very good. At times can be hard to clean because everything is smaller compaired to a BBQ but there doesn't appear to be us much mess than compaired to a BBQ. Over all love taking my weber out

So useful
I have my BBQ outside on the deck, it does have a cover on it however i have had no issues with it being in the rain and storms. It cooks extreamly well and i have had some great T-bone steaks done on it. It is easy to keep clean, however i do make sure i clean after every use to make it easier.
i love that it has a stand and its very compact yet big enough for the family.

SO GOOD
OMG do yourself a favour and get one of these. Everything comes out better than any normal BBQ. Cooking chicken breasts on the grill come out juicy! Roasts melt in your mouth. Best BBQ ever. Have to cook with lid down all the time. Accessories are VERY expensive but you don't need too many.

Excellent BBQ but with certain flaws
The Good, the Bad and the Tasty -
The Bad:-
While assembling this BBQ I was well disappointed how cheap the parts feel. Cheap chinese plastic and thin aluminium. Vinyl sheet on the front.... For a BBQ in the $815rrp (AUD) bracket this was not a premium feeling bbq I expected. For that price range you can easily find something more sturdy and solid such as the Ziggler. In saying that the final product does seem to come together fine and I'm confident it will last if I take care.
I was looking through Webers catalogue and found all the o...Read more
ptional accessories way over priced and frankly some of these accessories should have been included in the box. I am not confident buying any more Weber gear judging by quality in the first purchase. I am not happy with the price tag on these products either. So there definitely seems to be a "Brand Tax" on these accessories. I will be going aftermarket for my accessories The GOOD:-Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

cleaning
after bringing my bbq home i assembled it and found that it really is made of cheap plastic and is very flimsy the cooking part of the bbg is fine but the trolley is rubbish and the wheels even worse
i cooked a roast leg of pork which turned out fantastic so i give it about 8 out of 10 for cooking the trolly about a 3
then to clean it what a pain in the backside used a large plastic container of really hot soapy water the cooking grates
took about 20 minutes to clean i tryed webers own bbq cleaner that did not help so i give cleaning 3 out of 10

not a fan
I know lots of people love their webers but I would never buy another. The circular pattern of the flame makes it impossible to bbq two different items at the same time (one on a high flame and one on a low). Meat is always undercooked on ours as it never gets hot enough quickly enough to cook rapidly. Maybe if I cooked a lot of hamburgers, hot dogs or thanksgiving turkeys it would be OK but for steak and snags it is more like an oven and very underwhelming as a BBQ. The worst part is the 45 minute battle to empty and replace the fat drip tray ...Read more
that requires tugging and pulling the metal tray out from underneath the unit. What should be the simplest operation on a bbq requires a PHd in advanced engineering to undertake and always results in spilt fat all over the verandah. I can't wait for ours to die so I have an excuse to buy a good old fashioned (and frankly much cheaper) BBQ to replace it.1 comment

Daily use
Highly recommend the family Q. Cooks pumpkin pieces beautifully in around 40 mins on low middle burner heat. Very good on gas consumption and really easy to clean. Lights first time every time and very easy to move around the back pergola. The gas bottle is discreetly hidden behind the trolley enclosure

Good BBQ but a pain in the back to build
I am pleased by the finished product. Though I was a little disappointed to discover that the model I had brought (Q3100) did not have the thermometer apparently the Q3200 is only available from Weber specialists! Who knew!
Cooking wise it is a good bbq and gives good results.
Assembly.....
The box was sufficiently big that I expected it to come in 1 or 2 pieces. This was not the case. It comes in about 30 pieces (not including bolts) and requires about 20 steps (not all of which are clear or easy to take). Most of these parts/steps rel...Read more

Brilliant BBQ
I love my Family Q. It uses very little gas and it's super reliable to start. Plus it cooks a mean steak! Don't pay full price they're always on sale somewhere! I wouldn't pay extra for the thermometer version - just learn how to cook! My only gripe is that the surface area could be a bit bigger as any more than 6 means cooking in batches

Fantastic product
The Webber Q is fantastic. It looks good, heats really fast and works well. We use it several times each week as BBQ and oven and save ourselves heaps in electricity each time. Worth buying the trivet so you can use it effectively as an oven. Also the pizza stone is good.

best bbq so far
bbq comes with kart so instant furniture! this is the perfect bbq for pizza so make sure that you get the pizza stone for it, i paid $32 extra and it is amazing, cooks great sausages, haven't tried roast but i will, so easy to clean, move it around on balcony-lower frame is a little too plasticy for me but it doesn't affect anything so won't hold a grudge

Questions & Answers
Dawnasked
Hi we have a Weber family Q for over 10 years. It doesn’t have a thermometer but I’d like to cook a roast of beef in it. Where should I have the gauge set please?
Eugene G.asked
Bought Q3100 model and when installing noticed no temperature gauge. Extremely surprised that for the price paid there was none.
Question - Can I replace the lid for the one that does have it and pay the difference? Temperature is absolutely everything in bbq and I would have not purchased it if I knew that it came without it.
P.S. My brother has the same model for many years and it came with the thermostat included. Brilliant bbq and that is why i invested into one, but mine is without thermostat is making it obsolete.

Hi I would like to buy a family Weber but I need to be able to sit it on my outdoor kitchen bench. Can you buy them without the cart like the 2000 and the baby? Or is there a way I can use it without the cart?

Hi Otis, thanks for your feedback.
I'd love to help you get the best from your barbecue, so can I ask a few questions? ... Read more
As you have a Family Q, have you tried leaving the middle (small knob) burner off if you're cooking a few things that cook at different rates? If you let me know what you're trying to cook, I can give you more specific hints to help. The barbecue uses convective heat when the lid is down, similar to an oven, but it still should get hot enough to sear steaks and cook sausages- if you don't think that it is getting to the temperature it should be, then please call us on 1300 301 290 and we can delve a little deeper into that issue. There could be some issues with the gas connections. You shouldn't have to tug and struggle with the drip tray; it slides in and out easily to the side for cleaning. I'd happily talk you through it if you would like. We're here to help you get the best from your barbecue, so please feel free to call or email any time either by the number above or [email protected]. Thanks Otis.
