Weber 1428001 Performer Charcoal Grill, Dark Blue Review

Decided to go back to charcoal after 6 years with a gas grill.I finally bit the bullet and went with the Weber Performer and oh my - steaks are now better tasting than some fine restaurants!Clean-up is great with the collector pan.Cleaning the grill just takes a quick wipe down while the pot cools.Even though the build on this model may seem a little less robust from the previous generation grills, I still find it very sturdy and tough enough for everyday San Diego heat/weather.The charcoal storage area is big enough to store two or even three different (smaller) bags of charcoal.Sometimes I mix up my charcoal...having matchlights at the bottom of a mound of hickory.I also store spare propane bottles in this area.I was surprised how small the Performer actually is, the grill itself takes up very little real estate on my balcony.Assembly was about 35 minutes with some very basic tools.The manual had big pictures for making installation a snap.

So far I am very pleased with this grill.It was packaged very snug and amazon got it to me in two days flat, even indicating it would take an addition 2-3 more days to process the order.Ive only had this grill for a few weeks, but been grilling every week since owning it and so far the results have been consistent.I guess the downside to grilling this much is that you make more trips to the store to buy more charcoal.A slight inconvenice since I dont like handling charcoal bags at all.

Product Description:
Equipped with an innovative Touch-N-Go gas-ignition system, this charcoal grill allows for all the benefits of cooking with charcoal, but without the hassle of messy, unpredictable start-ups. Simply push the button to ignite the charcoal briquets--no more lighter fluid, matches, or anxious waiting necessary. The start-up function requires a disposable 14.1- or 16.4-ounce LP cylinder (sold separately)--a 14.1-ounce tank provides up to 12 10-minute ignitions and a 16.4-ounce tank provides up to 14 10-minute ignitions. Outdoor grilling enthusiasts will also appreciate the durable plated-steel hinged cooking grate, which offers a generous 363 square inches of space for anything from barbecued ribs and corn on the cob to fresh salmon or summer vegetables from the garden. Even more, the grill provides an attached Thermoset side work table with plenty of room for platters, condiments, and sauces; three tool hooks for keeping a spatula, tongs, and turning fork or brush within easy reach; and a lid-mounted thermometer for monitoring the heat at a glance. Other highlights include a 22-1/2-inch porcelain-enameled bowl and lid, a rust-proof aluminum vent, a Tuck-Away lid holder, and a glass-reinforced nylon handle, as well as a heavy-duty steel cart frame, a wire bottom shelf, two crack-proof all-weather wheels for smooth transport, and two locking casters. When finished cooking, the grill's stainless-steel One-Touch cleaning system and removable black aluminum ash catcher ensure easy clean-up. Two Char-Basket charcoal fuel holders come included, plus a weather-protected CharBin storage container that keeps up to 20 pounds of charcoal dry and ready to use. Not sure what to grill first?
