Hi Mace - no it won't unfortunately. The only stand for a Q1200 is the new Portable Cart 6579.

Best to call Weber Customer Service on 1300 301 290 or email on [email protected] - generally speaking you really shouldn't need to buy a new one, just a really good clean will bring it back.

Hi there - yes the grills can fit, but you will need a specially designed clip to accommodate them. The best thing to do is to visit your local Weber Specialist Dealer, or contact Weber Customer Service on 1300 301 290 - we'd be happy to advise the best option.
Cheers, Dave@WeberAustralia

Correct - best to call Weber Customer Service on 1300 301 290 or email on [email protected] - or contact your local Weber Specialist Dealer who can also help you with new or warranty grills.
Cheers, Dave@WeberAustralia

Absolutely - both the Baby Q and the Weber Q are approved for sitting directly on a table so go for it!

The Q200 is the older model, the Q2000 is the newer one now available in stores. The Q200 has a one piece grill, the Q2000 has a new style grill which comes in two parts with a split down the middle that allows you to remove one side and replace with a hotplate (sold separately). There are also some other minor design changes - and some upgrades to the trolleys.
Check out your local Specialist Dealer for more info and advice.

Technically it's not designed for the older model Q200 - and it's also not approved by the AGA for use with it.
However, like Tristan, it's up to you how you use it.... There are still some Stationary Carts out there available for purchased - which were designed for use with the Q200 and this is the better way to go.

Hi Kylie - the best thing to do is to visit your local Weber Specialist Dealer - they can give you the best advice.
Cheers, Dave@WeberAustralia

It's very simple - if it has a Q symbol in the top of the lid, it's the new Q2000 - the older model Q200 has the Weber Logo in the lid.
Hope that helps.

HI there - the reason we have two different models of the convection trays is that the grill setup is different on the Q200 vs the newer Q2000 - so the holes in-between the grill bars are different spacing. A big feature of the convection trays is that they come pre-stamped with holes that line up with the holes between the grill bars, allowing the excess fats and juices to drop through the bars without hitting them, down into the unit to drain away below. Using the wrong model convection tray will mean that those juices will hit your grill bars. Depending on what you're roasting it may not affect things too much - but if you can get the correct ones it's much better (if cooking pork or turkey I strongly recommend getting the right ones). You can find them at your local Weber Specialist Dealer - for your closest go to www.weberbbq.com.au

Hi Rowan - great to hear you love using your Q - unfortunately it sounds like you've had a fat fire in the cookbox at some point which has caused the frame to melt a bit. The best thing to do is to call Weber Customer Service on 1300 301 290 or email at [email protected] - have your serial number ready to quote - as they will be able to advise the best way forward.
Also, head to our website and check out the Cleaning and Maintenance video which has some awesome hints and tips about keeping your Weber Q clean - as it's generally a build up of debris in the cookbox that causes this kind of event.

Hi there - no the new half hotplate is designed for the Q2000 as it has split grill setup, meaning you can take out one grill and replace with the half hotplate. The grill on the Q200 is one piece, and the half hotplate will not fit sitting on top of it. The best option for you is the breakfast plate, or the premium griddle, both of which sit on top of the grill.
Cheers, Dave@WeberAustralia

The stands that suit the Q200 are:
Weber Q Rolling Cart 6548
Weber Q Stationary Cart 8460

The best place to get them is your local Weber Specialist Dealer as mentioned. They also have ALL the accessories that you need for your unit.
Hope that helps.
Cheers, Dave@WeberAustralia

Hi Jason - technically speaking no. The legs of the Q200 does not fit properly into the shape of the new trolleys - the main issue though is that the older model Q's have not been testing and approved for use by the AGA on the new trolleys.

The one you need is the older model Weber Q Rolling Cart 6548 - these are still available - best bet would be to check with your local Weber Specialist Dealer as they often carry them.

Cheers, Dave@WeberAustralia

Hi there - it's really not designed to fit the new cart, the leg setup is slightly different so it doesn't fit properly.
Hope that helps.

Hi Kate - doesn't sound good at all!
The best thing to do is to contact our customer service team at head office - 1300 301 290 - or email - [email protected] - send some photos and the serial number of the bbq which will save some time. They will be able to help out from there.
Cheers, Dave@WeberAustralia

Main difference is the grills - which on the Q2000 have a split grill setup which allows you to remove one grill (one side) and replace with a hotplate (that you can purchase as an accessory) - the coating on the grills is also a heavier coating of the same porcelain enamel which helps prevent rusting. Same engine (heat output) and cooking options between the two - the trolleys that you can purchase for the models are also different - many new features to them.
Hope that helps.

Hi Geoff - not exactly sure what you mean, but let me try and explain. If your bbq has a hose and regulator that fits into a normal LPG bottle (like the standard swap n go bottles at service stations etc) then your model IS a LPG model. The other way to check is with your regulator - is is a square shape? Or a round shape? If it's round it IS a LPG model, square is NG model. They are definitely NOT interchangeable.
The only exception here is if you are in a regional area with large format LPG bottles that are plumbed to the house, and therefore you might have a LPG hose that has a bayonet fitting on it that goes into a fitting on the house somewhere, but it doesn't sound like this is the case for you.
Any questions please call Weber customer service on 1300 301 290 and we'll be able to help you out further.

Hi Mick - first thing to do is to call Weber Customer Service on 1300 301 290 and discuss the issue with them. They will ask for a serial number to check the age and model of the unit, and will be able to advise if the unit is under warranty and / or what lids are available to replace or purchase. Some of the old lids and hinge setups will not fit the new lids, so it's best to go through Weber to get the right advise for your unit.
