Hopeless in wind and low temperatures.
The Weber is ok if there is no wind or if it is not extremely cold. The exterior lid surface is stained and the interior lid surface has minor cooling hairline cracks in it this makes the Weber baby Q very difficult to clean. Have purchase a Ziegler and Brown twin grill and have used this for almost 12 months and cooks better then the Weber, easier to clean inside and out. Much happier

Hi Lucky, thanks for getting back to us.
The wind can definitely impact the heat of barbecues, as it would any brand if it's out in the open. We recommend placing your barbecue in a well-ventilated... Read more

Can't believe how great this BBQ is
I had a Baby Q previously, but it was too small for our vegetarian household. We bbq half our meals during summer: sausages, tofu, etc, with lots of veggies. This BBQ fits everything and more. 10 minute warm up, 15 minutes cooking, and we have an incredible meal—without the need to have heated up the house with the oven or frypan. Maintains well, easy to clean, everything you'd expect from a Weber.

Makes BBQing a dream
The Weber family Q is so easy to use and very versatile. We enjoy using it for bbqing a great steak or homemade burger, roasting a succulent roast as well as baking scones or pudding . A great way of cooking and baking in the summer months as we don't have to heat the house up by having the oven on .

Creates Tasty BBQ
Such an overall good BBQ. So easy to use and move. It also does not dry out any of the meat or food that you can cook on it. Its great that it does not take up too much room and is nowhere as bulky as other types of BBQs

Perfect steaks
This BBQ is amazing! The size is not huge is perfect for the smallest balcony .
I've never believe that a gas barbecue could make such a tasty food. I was a fan of charcoal ...but when I bought Weber everything was easier. The food is tasty, steaks are juicy and crispy outside and.... the cleaning is much easier in comparison with charcoal . Another feature that I like is the temperature... you can see the temperature and adjust it depend the food that you want to cook. Perfect machine

Great bbq
Amazing bbq, we've used this for both pizza and meats and it gets the job done everytime. I love a good sear and a slightly smoky flavour on my steaks and this does it while keeping them still juicy on the inside. It took a bit of getting used to the hood down style of bbq but we won't ever do it anyother way now. I do wish it came with a thermostat on the hood as standard, just for convenience as we do fine without it. It's easy to clean as well, aesthetically I find the screen thing on the bottom a little flimsy.

Enjoy BBQ Time with WEber Family Q
I am quite satisfied with its special cooking methods without a lot of smoke was produced during the time my family is having BBQ. Also, it is easy to clean the machine. But the Storage is not big enough to serve 4 people or more. Probably it's a good choice for a family of 3.

Fantastic bbq
I recently purchased my family q and lets just say it is just that (family). So far i have cooked steak, sausages, burgers, chicken skewers, slow cooked rack of ribs and even mac and cheese balls. Everything has turned out great so far. Has been easy to clean with the plastic scraper and bbq wipes. Quite easy to assemble once you realise how it works.Ignites easy and gets hot in 10 minutes. Only negative i can think of is that I didn't buy it sooner.

Best BBQ I ever had
We are not rich family, as result we never could understand how people can spend more than $600 on BBQ. Well, as many of us we went and bought generic family 4 burner for $120. It lasted only 2 years and burned 1 big cylinder of gas every 3 BBQs. After 2 years I crunched numbers and realised that we spent more on gas during those 2 years than my Weber friends for their BBQ. On top of that my cheap BBQ rusted and had to go. Well, this where I learnt the lesson and we coughed $600 for new family Q.
After 3 years I still can't believe how much di...Read more

Wish it was a bit bigger
Bought the famous Weber Family Q after years of trying other BBQs of different sizes and models. It's a great little unit that cooks evenly and keeps the moisture in the meat. We use it a lot in summer for bbq dinners. I only wish it was big enough to do our turkey and roast beef at Christmas time for the whole extended family.
Other than that, it's a great buy that I'd recommend to anyone. Weber has stood the test of time so you can't really go wrong.

Amazing BBQ, Weber quality
The Weber family Q is the ultimate family BBQ. I live in a household of only 2, yet this BBQ is amazing for our needs.
I've been using it very often and the cooking results are amazing everytime. Hook it up to a gas bottle and off it goes, burning away amazingly. The fact that the two burners can be controlled independently helps too.
About as perfect of a BBQ as they come.

Great BBQ looks small but adequate for family.
I had a 4 burner stainless steel hooded BBQ and changed over to the family Q after using the Baby Q in the caravan. Ours is a natural gas model and its easier to keep clean than the flat plate hooded BBQ we had. Wind can affect it so it needs to be out of windy areas. Once you get a bit of experience cooking on it they are great BBQs. Get the trivet as it essential for roasting. I purchased a non Weber pizza stone from K Mart for $10.

I LOVE my Weber Q
Maybe it's mind over matter, but a piece of steak cooked on my Weber Q tastes so much better than cooked any other way! I'm so happy with this BBQ. And I may be a little addicted to buying accessories for it. I have the pizza stone - the best pizza I have ever eaten, the trivet and convection trays although I haven't had a chance to cook a roast in it yet but that's coming up soon. I also have the wire brush for cleaning the grill bars - I certainly recommend that. I'm a bit of a neat freak, and I struggle to keep the base clean - I've used the Weber branded cleaner which does a great job, but cleaning around the gas burners can be a bit fiddly.

Great tasting BBQ's
The Weber family Q is very easy to use. The clean up is very easy. It did take a little time to get used to cooking with the lid down but food cooks more evenly and cooks quicker. I was really surprised that after 18 months I still hadn't used a full 8.5kg gas bottle.

One thing must be in the yard!!!
Our family loves this purchases very much because it provides high quality cooking results that we have ever tasted. On every sunny afternoon, our family stay in the yard, since it is easy to use, sometimes my parents will cook the food for the younger generations. Moreover, the grill is heated with the same temperature, which avoids some parts of the food becomes extremely cooked. We all enjoy the time with it!

Hard to go wrong with a barbie
Pretty hard to go wrong with a decent barbie we have stainless steel plates at our home barbie and it's built into the deck (with a beer fridge beneath it) and got one of these jobs for our beach house which was a little different but has a few burners and all the bells and whistles. Hate to say it because to me the only factor for barbies was the number of burners really, they all turn on and cook but this one just doesn't seem to compete for me. The grill is the same heat all over, normally it's hotter up top to get a rarer steak I don't know does the trick but could be better.

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.
