Other features include a thermometer built into the hood and two Q-shaped burners instead of one. Either of these grills would be great for those that don’t have the room for a full-size grill but still want the feel of a full-sized gas barbecue. Both of the 3200 models include folding side tables for storage in tight areas. They both accept both the 14.1oz and 16.4oz disposable propane bottles.
Size-wise and feature-wise, the weber charcoal grill1400 is identical to the Weber Q1000, and the Q2400 is the same size as the Q2000. The major exceptions are that neither model has a button to light it since they do not use gas fuel.

I also own a weber q2200, which I have not done a review on, but I did write a review on its older model, the Weber Q220, which you can find here. Got a new Weberq1200 doesn’t even light up at all. Other places don’t seem to keep this grill in stock.
The Q line of grills still have all of the same features, the same specifications and most importantly, they all operate the same and produce the same results. One of the major selling points of this grill is its two fold-out side tables, which are each 12.5 x 13.5 inches. They’re the perfect spot to place a plate, condiments, and grilling tools, and I used them pretty much every time I grilled. Webers are not cheap, but when you consider that they last decades, the price is easy to justify.
While it doesn’t mean that ribs and similar foods are of the table, it can make it trickier to cook them. After all, grilling on a lower temperature doesn’t have nearly the same effect. The biggest issue here would be with the fact that there is only one burner. Now, given the size of the model this isn’t too surprising, but it does create a small issue when it comes to indirect cooking. I have to say, overall, I was impressed with what a good cooking performance the Weber Q 2200 offers up. Although it has a few limitations that you wouldn’t necessarily find with a whole grill, I did enjoy grilling on it.
It seems that the handle above the regulator is not quite in the right spot, and it can be challenging to attach a 16.4oz propane bottle to it. Weber suggests lifting the grill up by the right side handle to connect the cylinder at a bit of an angle. Modifying the handle by grinding or filing out a bit for extra clearance will void your warranty. After you have finished cooking for the day, let the grill cool off enough to handle the grates. Remove the grease tray and dispose of the liner and its contents appropriately.
I have been using grills since I was in my teens and have had my fair share of experiences with a wide varieties of brands and models. Weber grills are known as being some of the best but how does the Q 2200 hold up? Well, with great temperature regulation, grilling capabilities, heat retention, and ease of use, it readily measures up.
