Great Grill
Love the new Weber, wish it was the same height as the 22”. Look forward to cooking on it for years!

Original Style But Not the Original Quality
This 18 inch grill lacks the quality of the 22 in grill I had used for many years. The 4 kettle tabs that hold up the food grill are so poorly designed, and the grill diameter too small, that the grill nearly flips out of the kettle when you try and clean it. The food grill diameter is 17.5 in. and increasing it to 17.75 would help.

    Versatile and upgradable.
    A great little grill as is but very versatile and upgradable too, just like all current Weber kettles. Had a Smokey Joe Platinum since around 2005 for camping but it had an airflow issue that prevented temps from getting good and hot unless the lid was off or cracked. Great for smoking but had limits in grilling. This fixes that and as a bonus, it has legs. Ordered an ash catcher as the shallow pan is just a mess, especially if it's windy or rains.

    Works well but a few corners cut
    I purchased this grill to fill in until our new outdoor kitchen is done. I put it together in the time allowed (30 min) and only had to take it apart once to rotate the base to the legs. The instructions are pretty vague and leave out several important instructions. The legs, wheels and dampers are very thin metal and not good quality. However the body, the top and the grill grate are pretty heavy duty and well made. It does cook pretty well and the heat is even if done properly

    I'm Not Happy
    I bought this Weber grill to replace my older Weber that lasted for at least 10 years. I hate to say this but I'm not happy with this one because it's not doing its job. Will not get hot enough to cook, it's difficult to get more charcoal in the pit once you start cooking on it. The smaller opening in the center could use a better way to open rather than my pliers. I should've just bought new parts for my old Weber grill instead of wasting money on this newer model.

    18 inch kettle dust catcher
    I miss the charcoal dust catcher on the 18 inch model. I use the 18 inch almost every time when I am grilling for two. Please restore the dust catcher!

    New Kettle Vs Old Kettle
    Compared to my first Weber Kettle of 30+ years (and still used), the tray for ashes and handles have improved. The new lid is noticeably lighter weight, but unsure that is an improvement. The new kettle was not consistent in temperature (as evidenced by the food being cooked), and I'm thinking it was the change in lid, as I've been cooking with charcoal for the years noted. Some issues with assembling. Two legs were difficult to insert. Used WD40, which helped. Also, one of the clips (to insert into the leg) was too long for the machined hole. The first kettle I received was damaged, but received excellent customer service for a replacement.

    Best charcoal grill ever!
    It is so easy to assemble. And it is just the right size for our needs.

    Great grill
    I love my grill I just wish I got a bigger model. It's a great size for a couple without any guests, which is fine during Covid times. The food tastes great, assembly was straight forward, and it's easy to clean.

    Good grill easy assembly
    Grill works great, was super easy to assemble. Only reason I didn't give it a 5 star is because it's a little more difficult getting the ashes out of than other grills I've had
