Damaged but fixed quickly
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
After ordering the Weber Grill, i was happy with the amount of time it took for the grill to get here, eve with the free shipping. Grill was damaged when received, one of the legs had been bent in the box. Amazon customer service was very helpful and gave me a partial refund on the damaged grill which i took and was able to replace the leg.
Great product!

The Weber Silver One-Touch Grill is a great product. I have owned the grill for five years with no problems. The ash catcher can be annoying in breezy or windy days as ash does pretty much go everywhere. It is very simple to regulate the heat and control the burn. I would definately recommend getting the charcoal starter chimney for fast and easy lighting of the charcoal. Although the legs and wheels may not seem very substantial, they have held up admirably thus far. Cooking with charcoal may be more work and a bit messy (ashes), but the flavor is second to none! I would recommend a charcoal grill for anyone who has not grilled much before since its hard to really ruin a piece of meat….seems many novices go crazy with their gas grills and overcook/burn just about everything.

Re- introduced myself to charcoal.
This product is well made, well designed and works wonderfully.
Makes cooking fun again.
Amazon has the best price, easy ordering and includes free 2-day shipping as well. I buy most everything online and shop for best price with Google.
Amazon is Unbeatable.
Quality Is Suffering But Nothing Better Out There
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
First the good. I love the looks of this grill. It is sleek, styling and iconic and I enjoy seeing it on my porch.
- It is much more attractive than one of those monstrous gas grills.
- It seals very tightly.
- Its simple style allows you to cook many different meats in many different ways.
- There are so many accessories available for it and they are easy to find.
Now the bad. Besides the black metal kettle part, everything else seems to be of terribly cheap quality and not what I would expect in this price range.
- The legs and bottom frame are made of shockingly thin and weak metal. I wouldn’t buy my kids toys with such cheap trashy metal.
- The wheels are made of cheap hard hollow one-sided plastic. Again, I would not buy a children’s toy with such cheap wheels.
- The side handle melted during the first use when we hung the lid from it while cooking.
Let’s face it. This is a lot of money for a basic charcoal grill. You are paying for quality and looks. I gave it four stars only on the merit that there simply isn’t a viable competitor right now. If there were other options it would not have fared so well. I feel like Weber has taken advantage of their good name and market share and is allowing their quality to suffer.
Shockingly, I would buy it again.

Weber 741001 22 1/2-Inch One-Touch Silver Kettle Grill, BlackBest design for indirect method of cooking a turkey of any Kettle grill considered. Sturdy, well-made grill is perfect for back-yard barbeques. Allows for better heat control than gas grills I have used, and, when purchased with Amazon’s free shipping promotion, I did not have to pay a premium over the price offered at hardware stores.
