 "Weber is Tops" 2007-05-21
By A. Cerqua (Monroe, VA USA)
I've never met a Weber grill owner who didn't remain completely loyal to the brand. Weber customers will never buy anything else. I can't speak to their less expensive lines (some are made in China), but the premium lines are first rate made in the US of A and the EP-310 is a great example. This is a grill which I own and it will last for many, many years. This unit is made of 302 stainless steel, the GOOD kind, not the inferior 420 stuff most of the grills at Lowes are made with. Some parts are cast alumnium and a few cabinet parts are painted metal but nothing that will rust. Without going on feature by feature, this grill was designed to cook well and very efficiently and last a long time to boot. The thick stainless steel cooking grates are key. Anything else (cast iron, porcelinized iron etc) will rust away too soon and they are not cheap to replace. These will last virtually a lifetime. Many cool looking grills you see are affordable because they chince on the grates. You get a grill for $200 and a year later you are buying grates for $100. Take my word for it...buy a Weber grill. This model is a top shelf choice. The Genesis S-310 is the same but the cover is stainless and it costs $100 more. I find stainless too hard to keep nice looking. The black porcelin cover is easy to keep clean. Oh, and there is a sister model to the EP-310...the EP320. It is the same but has a side burnr. Happy grilling!

 "Great Grill!" 2009-08-29
By Randall G. (Southern California)
Purchased this propane grill to replace a 3 year old non-Weber grill that stated needing an overhaul. I am very impressed with every aspect of this grill. Very well engineered by the Weber folks in suburban Chicago. Assembly was fine -- no words; just pictures which was OK. Looks fantastic and heated up to 500 degrees in less than 15 minutes. That's plenty hot enough for me. At this point,I have no suggestions for the Weber folks. Buying through Amazon made it easy for me with the free shipping through Amazon Prime. It was a very large box and would have been very difficult transporting from my local hardware store. Another great Amazon experience and thrilled with the Weber Product. You will not be disappoined. I got the grill cover too but have not opened it up yet.

By J. B. Schuyler
This grill is awesome. I've had it a couple weeks now and used it about 5 or 6 times and it cooks very well. It replaced my 10 year old Ducane which was falling apart. While I was putting the grill together I was very impressed with the quality of the parts and how solidly built the grill is.



It gets very hot and can sear meat, something my old one could not do. I really like having three burners too.



I'm looking forward to many year of great grilling.

 "The newest Weber at our house" 2009-05-17
By David K (Chappaqua)
I just put together the Weber 310 and it is cooking well. Our old Weber came with much better instructions & cookbook all enclosed in a 3 ring binder. The new instructions are printed on a large piece of newsprint paper and the pictures can be confusing. I needed to call Weber many times to clarify instructions. I was missing one nut and Weber substituted another type that works. When I called, they said that the missing nut is backed ordered and I would be receiving it as soon as it is available. It came about 2 weeks after I had the grill together and the nut is part of assembly instruction # 8 in instructions that run to # 22. I have not undone the work to put the correct nut in place.

The grill works great. It is a pleasure to cook with.

I got the non Weber grill cover and it fits perfectly and keeps the rain out. Apparently, the Weber brand cover allows the rain to get in.

Cooks food to perfection-excellent quality-Only complaint is the "easy to follow directions". I am generally pretty good at putting stuff together but these directions drove me crazy. Weber should definitely re-evaluate the directions. Other than that, very pleased.

 "Best Fathers' Day gift ever!" 2009-07-05
By Nan (Illinois)
The Weber Genesis gas grill was an instant favorite in this house! It replaced a 14-year old Weber grill, but it has many upgrades. The grates are heavy and leave great grill marks on the meat and vegetables. The style is so pretty, and the copper color quite unique. We have used it almost every night since it arrived. We also appreciated the delivery right to our garage, as this is a large and very heavy item.

 "A little confused" 2009-08-04
By P. M. Berkowitz
I'm a little puzzled by a few things. If this 3721001 has only two burners, as Edward has it, then that would make it an E-210 rather than an E-310, no? That's the difference between the two models.



Then I'm wondering about the picture (here at Amazon.com). It seems to be a hybrid, with black exterior aside from the lighter-colored (stainless steel?) doors. Is that really what it looks like? In all of Weber's promotional material, the E-310 is supposed to have black doors. There's an SP-310 which is all-stainless steel and much more expensive. It makes me wonder whether this is either an early prototype or a hybrid, which might even account for both the problems in assembly some people have had and the reduced price.



Finally, I am very interested in the comments by Adam, lower down, about getting stainless steel cooking grates and Flavorizer bars. (Incidentally, there does not seem to be both porcelain and porcelain-enameled cast iron alternatives: there's just the one, which may be described either way.) I'd like to get the SS versions, as they seen to be better, or at least used in all the more expensive models like Genesis and Summit. Also my last grill (a Sterling) had porcelain-enamaled: the enamel wears off after a year or two and you're left with very grimy metal after that. (I'm intrigued that Adam thinks cast iron is hotter and better, though, but porcelain as cooler and worse, when there only seems to be one porcelain-enameled version now.) Weber sells the stainless-steel interior (cooking grates and Flavorizer bars) version as Spirit EP-310, and the cheapest I can find it anywhere (it's not at Amazon) is $545. That's a lot more than the $379 for the E-310 here. Again, it makes me wonder if this particular E-310 is a hybrid - it's a lot closer to $499 everywhere else. To buy stainless steel grate and bars separately from Weber costs another $135. I guess I could wait until the enameled ones wear out. Or I could shell out for the EP-310 now.



Any comments?

 "Now You're Cookin'!" 2009-07-16
By Sky (New York)
The Weber 3721001 is pretty much the same grill as the Weber 3711001 with one big difference: The 3721001 has 3 burners and the 3711001 has 2 burners. I recently bought a new Weber Spirit after owning my last one for 11 years.



Excellent product. I think that 2 burners are more than sufficient; I don't know why they even have this 3 burner model since the 3 burner model isn't really that much bigger. The 2 burner model has plenty of room for the needs of everyday family grilling and entertaining a decent size group. The 3 burner model just seems to be able to get unnecessarily hotter and heats up a lot faster.



There's plenty of other product info on this page from Amazon and the manufacturer, so let me tell you a few things that I do to make my Weber work best for me.



-Most importantly...keep it covered. Amazon sells a cover...get it. Not coving it will cut its life in half at least.

-Cover the funnel shaped grease drip pan with tin foil and change it regularly; otherwise build-up in the trap can catch fire and THAT does not make a steak taste very good.

-Change the disposable grease traps regularly (otherwise they start to stink).

-Get yourself a quality wire brush and use it before each use...NOT after. The build-up on the cooking grates after each use actually protects them from the elements.

-Before each use, after you wire brush the grates, put some cooking oil on some paper towels and wipe the grates down.

-Pre-heat the grill on high for at least 5 - 10 minutes; it burns off anything left over from the cleaning and makes the cooking grates nice and hot.

-Initiate cooking steaks, chops, any cuts of meat (even burgers...no, not hot dogs) on just-over-medium heat for no more than 2 minutes on each side and flip before cooking to your liking. This brief searing of each side locks in the flavor of your cut of meat.

-Cook with a closed cover; normal cuts of meat shouldn't take more than a total of 10 minutes (including the searing).

-Let your meat sit for up to 5 minutes before slicing (or biting into it!). This locks in the juices; if the juices are too hot when you slice (or bite), they'll run right out of your cut of meat.



There you go. Hope that helps. And don't forget to cover the grill after it cools. Bon appetit!

 "Good grill - Great price at Home Depot" 2009-03-23
By l0555 (Conroe, TX United States)
Have only had it a couple of days but it works great - heats quickly and evenly. First Weber, but I only payed 199.00 at Home Depot for this grill (was 1/2 off of regular 499.99). If you have good mechanical skills putting it together was not that bad even with the bad pictures that they give you for instructions. It took me about 45 minutes. Be careful not to over tighten the bolts and screws. The actual instructions are not quite the same as what it really takes to put it together. Would not recommend ordering on line as the box is not that great. Safer to buy locally as pointed out by several other posts. This came with porceline grates, but you can easily get cast iron or stainless after these wear out.

 "Weber makes the best" 2009-03-22

I just bought a Weber Spirit E-310. This is my second Weber in 34 year's. I went with the entry level model as we are empty nester's, but my first Weber lasted over 30 years. Yes, I did replace the grates and flavor-riser bars a couple of times. Don't waste your hard earned cash on something else... do yourself a favor and buy a Weber. Maybe they should pay me for this endorsement! Have fun grilling and be safe.

 "Nice!" 2009-08-03
By October Rose (Philadelphia, PA USA)
I'm very pleased with the grill, although admittedly I've only used it for a month. It heats quickly and evenly, and has plenty of cooking area - we like to grill veggies along with the meat. Construction is sturdy. I wish the burners were on the front of the grill to allow more shelf space on the side, but that's a minor issue. My grill arrived with the two front doors crushed, and I had to call Weber/Stephens for replacement. They were extremely helpful and promised an overnight shipping, however the doors are back-ordered and have not yet been shipped to me.

 "You get what you pay for..." 2009-08-03
By Arif Demirel
...and this grill certainly delivers!



The grill was delivered free through Ceva, they called to set up a drop off time and were right on, very professional.



Putting the grill together was enjoyable, the illustrated instructions made it very easy. The finished product is very well put together, for Weber's entry line. Some of the finishes and touches you would find on the higher end models are missing here, but the grill delivers just like the big guys.



The burners come to life instantly and deliver a good consistent and even heat. The electric ignition is a very nice touch, but make sure to inspect it occasionally because overtime moister can get in there.



I bought this grill after doing over a month of research, visiting home improvement stores and talking to grill owners. I found that this is the best bang for your buck. I have talked to multiple people who have had their Weber since the 90's and have had nothing but good things to say about them. I would highly encourage anyone looking for an entry level grill to seriously consider this grill, after all, by the time you add up how much you would spend on multiple grills to match the longevity of this grill, you would have spent way more then what the Weber costs.



Happy grillin!

 "I Love My Grill!!! No Hot Spots, Just Great Cooking!" 2009-07-13
By Graydon Blair (Syracuse, UT USA)
I bought this grill based on the reviews here and from friends recommendations about the Weber brand. This is my very first grill I've ever owned personally...and oh my gosh, I'm in heaven! (and so is my wife!)



From the moment it showed up (Amazon, you guy's ship stuff awesome! Even the Cevia delivery guy was cool!) I was thrilled.



Build Quality:

While it does take a while to put together, I was extremely impressed with the build quality throughout. Stainless steel fittings, oversize bolts, well built panels, even the doors are double-lined metal!



It came with everything I needed to get set up and went together without a hitch. Even the kids were impressed with it!



Ease Of Use:

My gosh, if grilling is this easy, I should've gotten into it years ago!

Just turn on the gas, turn on the burners, light, walk away for a while, come back & throw the food on and cook away!



Instead of feeling like you're cooking over a flame with a bunch of hot spots, it feels a lot like cooking on a gas range. The heat is incredibly even and flare ups are really rare. The taste it gives food is nothing short of miraculous!



Incredible Taste!

This probably isn't unique to this grill, but the taste that this thing infuses into food is nothing short of amazing! We've found ourselves grilling all sorts of things (veggies, pork, chicken, burgers, hot dogs, steak, etc) because of how incredible the taste is!



Really Quiet!

One thing that really struck me about this grill was how quiet it is when it's running. While this is my first grill I've personally owned, I've grown up with BBQ's my whole life & cooked on several others and I've NEVER seen a grill this quiet when it's going.



I don't know what kind of magic Weber has done, but it's practically silent when it's running. Not that normal gas sounding "Whoosh! SHHHHHHHHHHHHhhh" that you normally hear when you fire up other grills. I have to look down into it to see that the fires going just to be sure because it's so quiet! I love it!



Heats Up Fast!

Everything I've read say's these things heat up really fast. Well, I'm here to say that they're dead on. Within 5 minutes of firing it up, it's up to 600 deg. F and ready to cook on! Talk about fast grilling!



We've had the grill now for a couple months and are using it multiple times a week. My wife actually prefers to cook on it vs our stove inside the house now! Looks like I'll be stocking up on propane.



I Love The Flavorizer Bars!

Those flavorizer bars have got to be the coolest thing on that grill! I'd read where it keeps the flare ups from happening and that they help season the food too. Yep! It's all true! We had some really oily London Broils that we'd marinated the other day that we threw on the grill & I was curious to see how they'd do (they were literally DRIPPING with oil).



They fired up a little, but the flames quickly subsided and never got really high. So, being curious, I dumped a bunch of the marinade on them just to see how well the grill would do at "flaming up". I can report that it did an awesome job! Yep! It'd flame alright, but it never got out of control and the flames subsided very quickly and were well under control.



I've also noticed that as the grease drips down onto the flavorizer bars it really does "sizzle" and smoke like they say and it gives the food a really nice flavor. I guess because it smokes the grease instead of burning it, you get a much better flavor in the meats.



I was impressed!



Versatile:

We probably have a unique use for this thing...once we got it up & running we decided to open a brand new dutch oven that we'd had for a couple years. Part of getting a dutch oven includes "seasoning" it.



I'm proud to announce that not only is my Weber Grill great at cooking food, it seasoned that dutch oven incredibly well!



We're finding new uses for it now all the time and absolutely love the thing!



Weber, you've got a fan in me!

 "Love this grill" 2009-07-08
By M. Tocco (Dwight, IL United States)
This grill does need to be assembled but contrary to what the instructions said I was able to do this myself. There is one step where you need to lift a large piece into place. It would be helpful to use 2 people but I was too impatient and carefully did it myself.



The grill is very easy to start up. The castors are smooth and do keep it in one place when locked down. The aluminum side surfaces do heat up a little during grilling but not so hot that you would burn yourself. The sides have handy hooks for your tools to hang from.



I have been using the grill almost everyday since I put it together. It really makes is so much easier to cook dinner (and lunch too). The clean-up is a piece of cake! No pots or pans to wash, just a spatula! The surface I clean with the recommended brass bristle brush after it has been heated up for the next meal to be cooked.

 "Why?" 2009-07-03
By T. Robinson
Why, oh, why,did they put the control knobs smack dab in the middle of the right-hand shelf??!! At least on the Genesis E-310 they pushed them to the outside leaving a bit of space for a spatula or tongs. I am in the market for a new grill and want a Weber. This one is in my price range but I'm not sure I can live without that right-hand shelf space. I wonder if I could modify the shelf myself and move the controls to the right a bit? Hmmm....

 "Gambled and won!" 2009-07-29
By Larry G. Crowder (Mobile, AL)
OK, what gives with this 'gambled and won' header. Buying a Weber is not a gamble and the excellent reviews prove this and I will elaborate more on this later. The gamble is ordering an item that weighs 185 pounds and wondering just how damaged it will be when it arrives. I would imagine that everyone reading this review has had some type of shipping damages on large items they have purchases on the web.



The grill was shipped to me out of Tukwila, WA by a freight company called CEVA to New Orleans, LA and then was hot shot to me in Mobile, AL by Landis Transport. The box had one very small tear on the bottom surface. I cannot brag enough on these two shipping companies for a job well done. They get five stars!



Now for the grill assembly:

* Well packaged: everything wrapped, padded and well protected

* Assembly instructions very clear; anyone who can understand picture oriented instructions should be able to put this grill together.

* Part of the assembly needs two people and could take about 3 hours.

* Components are all top grade material, and lots of stainless steel.

* Parts fit together just as they are supposed to. No ill fitting pieces or 'forced' together components on this grill.

* Accurate gas tank monitor that is easy to use and easy to see.

* Easy to light burners and ones that will stay lit even in windy conditions.

* Easy to clean porcelain and stainless steel surfaces

* And the shipping box is large enough to turn into a fort for a 4-year old Grandson!



Now for the cooking review:

* Makes a mediocre outdoor cook like me look like they know what they are doing!

* The very high cooking temperature and design of the burners and grates turns the drippings to smoke, but does not flare up. This really adds to the flavor of the meats.

* Takes a lot of faith in the Weber to follow cooking suggestions because most grills you have probably used get a lot of flare up with high temperatures and then you have meat, especially hamburgers, that look like lumps of charcoal. Follow cooking directions - when it calls for HIGH DIRECT cooking, it means exactly that. Burners on HIGH, meat right on top of the burner and don't mess with the goods until it is time, which is not very long - Amazing results.



* I have cooked steaks, hamburgers, chicken, ham steak, hot dogs using the directions. It is amazing how this very high heat seals in the juices, but does not burn the meat if you remove it in time. For instance, I pre-heat the grill to about 450F then put 1" thick steaks directly over the burner for 4 minutes on each side. They are just right for me (medium) with a flavor that is better than any of my old grills can achieve.



Miscellaneous Comments:

* Does it use more gas (I use propane) because of its high cooking temperature than other grills? Personally, I do not think it does because the cooking times are much shorter.

* The burner controls take up most of the right table extension instead of mounted on front like other brands. This has not been a problem for me because I have table tops close by for a work surface. I do not know the reason for this, but it may have something to do with getting the controls as far away from the burners as possible. It gets really warm on the front of the grill when it is preheated to 400-500F.

* I have a concrete patio and the wheels work just fine. The two in front are lockable and I have found the grill easy to move in spite of its weight.

* The drip pan is easy to change, but seldom needs it because most everything that drips turns to smoke. In fact, after several months of regular use, I have very little in the pan.



Overall rating - of course it gets five stars!

 "Nice Grill - Lots of Assembly & Watch Pricing" 2009-07-24
By BnE (Los Angeles, CA USA)
We have had the grill for about a month and are enjoying it this summer. Seems solid, well made and we recommend it. Just a couple of things to note:

1) It came in a huge 175 lb. box completely unassembled. So plan on spending an afternoon putting it together with another person. Instructions were very good and no parts were missing so, other than the initial shock of a big assembly project, all went well.

2) After I ordered the grill but before I received it, Amazon dropped the price by $100 to $599!! I called Amazon and they would not honor the new price which really annoyed me. Also, I could not cancel the order because it was already in transit and they said I would have to pay the shipping to return (which is a lot at 175 lbs). Be very careful with Amazon's pricing practices.

 "Superior Grill" 2009-07-22
By R. McCauley (Atlanta, Georgia)
I have owned this grill for almost a month, and have cooked on it almost every dinner. It heats up quickly, cooks food evenly, and food releases easily. I read a lot of reviews (2 months of searching), and I'm extremely happy with my purchase.

 "All I expected, and more" 2009-07-18
By J. Wellman (St. Louis)
I researched grills, the Weber, was always rated at the top, Amazon had the best price, shipped free, and it delivered 4 days early, on a Friday.



Had it cooking the same night, easy assembly, great taste. All I expected, only time will tell on longevity, but its put together with heavt duty materials. I also got a cover, and expect years of service, if my wife will let me at it, she loves it also.....

 "This grill hasn't done me wrong, 2nd year and still a honeymoon every day" 2009-07-17
By C. Potgeter
The kitchen in my home is for ....stuff.

Stuff for making tea, stir-fry, pizza, lasagna, rum doughnuts, blender drinks, jello shots, etc.

I have never cooked meat indoors (With the exception of chili, and crock pot fare.).

I have used the grill far more than my stove and oven combined.

Whether it's rib-eyes, pork chops, pork ribs, chicken breasts, or whole chickens, this grill has never done me wrong.

I have owned mostly cheap grills, but I wanted something....better. I assembled it outside on my 2nd floor deck. (No idea how I'm gonna move it.)

It has fired up every time, sun, rain, or snow. Yes, I grill in the rain and snow.

It has never blown out during windy days-there are some strong cross winds, and no shelter or windbreak.

It hits over 700F for 15 minutes once a month burning the grease off-no paint damage.

But the proof is in the eating, and if my deck falls and the grill is damaged beyond repair-I will get the exact same grill.

I have never had a steak or ANY cut of meat at ANY restaurant that is as good as on my Weber. Day in and day out. I also have never had any cut of meat prepared on my Weber that didn't live up to expectations. It's perfect-every time.

My neighbor comes over once a week and brings meat and drinks but the condition is that we grill it on this weber.

He told me how much he loves this grill, and I told him to buy one-they still make it.

His answer-"No- I want THIS one."

Sorry. This one's mine.



I agree with the poor assembly instructions, me and my neighbor assembled it in the dark holding a flashlight in the rain. We had to take stuff apart a couple of times before it was together the right way. That's no reason to take off a star-think of it as a challenge.
