Like other top models, this is all thanks to a single, U-shaped burner that effectively delivers heat across the range of the grill surface. The Weber Q 100 gas grill pairs a high performance cooking system and easy-grip handles to form a powerful yet portable gas grill. The Q1000 Series is lighter and more compact, while the Q2000 series has more grilling space and a taller lid. You will find a model in each series that has a built-in thermometer and folding side tables.
I’m already looking forward to taking it along with me this summer when I go camping in Northern California. This grill is easily big enough to cook for a family of portable bbq four. This Q 3200 is a two burner, cart mounted grill that, in my opinion, looks sharp. Here is a quick rundown of the features and specifications of this grill.
We put that phrase in quotations because the only thing that packs away are the side tables, which do conveniently fold up securely underneath the lid. My experience with both of these grills has been excellent. I don’t use them much anymore because I’m always testing new portable grills, but let me expand on that. Today I want to compare all the models you can choose from in the Weber Q Series. Weber Q grills are some of my favorite portable grills, but there are quite a few differences between them. The cast iron grill grate itself is designed to cover the areas right above the burner, so I also noticed very few flareups and no smoking.
If I hated how it heated up or something, I would have said so. However, I brought it up specifically because you stated you “were expected to write a review” and it is an expensive product. The ability of keeping an unbiased review would be tainted by receiving and keeping an expensive product regardless of whether they call it a gift.
The Q3200 is the only grill out of the Series with a warming rack, something rarely seen in my reviews. Those accustomed to cooking on a full-sized grill know that a warming rack makes a difference to your barbecuing. They both accept both the 14.1oz and 16.4oz disposable propane bottles. An adaptor hose can easily convert to a 20lb propane tank. This is far more cost-effective and won’t leave you running out of propane halfway through cooking a meal. This is a grill that was designed to last for years, which really should be no surprise if you have seen any of Weber’s products.

Whether you’re looking for a propane grill for your backyard barbecue party or a portable charcoal grill for your next family camping trip, Weber has you covered. Like all Weber products we’ve tested, the popularity of the brand is backed by quality service and sales, with replacement parts being widely available. But considering the quality of their products, you can expect a long and happy culinary relationship with this grill. The base and lid of the firebox are made of cast aluminum.
The pan is made from lightweight metal and has a recessed area in the center to hold a disposable tin. It’s supposed to slide in underneath the grill body, but the pan that came with my grill was the tiniest bit too big and wouldn’t slide into the grooves. I tried everything I could think of—rotating it, bending it, putting it in from the other side—and it simply wouldn’t fit. From charcoal to gas to pellet grills, there are plenty of grills on the market that are capable of fulfilling all of your grilling needs. Gas grills, in particular, are great due to their ability to control the heat temperature while they’re in use. Camryn Rabideau is a freelance writer and product reviewer.
The Q 1000 features a rust resistant cast aluminum lid and body, making the grill lightweight, but still durable. The ignition is an electronic push-to-start, so firing up the grill for a cookout is quick and easy.

The PK-360, with 360 square inches of cooking space, this rust free, cast aluminum charcoal grill is durable and easy to use. Four-way venting means it’s easy to set up for two zone cooking with more control than single vent Kamado grills.
