Unbelievable heat control!
This was my first weber and I absolutely love it. I find the heat control and consistency to be next to none. I have owned no name kettles and was always happy with them, but I think that has changed now haha.

A must have in your backyard
Guys, if you want to get a starter charcoal grill and are afraid that its going to be hard. Stop overthinking it. this is one of the easiest to manage. after a few mods, seen on YouTube with a liner and adding of a thermometer in the right position, this is the best. For short and searing heat to long and slow cooks. I have a Weber Genesis propane as well, but if you are looking to get that coal flavor, look no further.

The Weber Kettle works great for direct and indirect grilling. I have smoked chicken and a pork shoulder and it is awesome!!

Tried and tested
This grill is all you’ll ever need. No reason to try anything else. I’ve only owned Weber charcoal grills and they’ve never let me down.

Lovin' it
I received this grill as a Christmas gift. So far, I have done a roast and ribs on it. Unfortunately, we have three foot drifts of snow, and sub zero temperatures. I'll be using it again in March.

Pur bonheur!!
J'ai reçu mon Weber 22 pouces à Noël. J'ai commencé à faire des cuissons le lendemain. Mes filles n'aiment pas vraiment la viande. J'ai fait du poulet et du porc, elles ont adorées. Juste pour ça, je suis très heureux de mon cadeau.

A Classic Design that just Works !
After years of supermarket and off brand charcoal grills, several years ago I bought the Deluxe 22" kettle. I should have bought one years ago. These things are built to last forever, replacement grates and all other parts are easy to find and don't change year to year, and I grill, roast, and smoke on mine. I can make better beef brisket than any BBQ joint around me, and smoking a whole turkey for the holidays is a breeze. With the vents and thermometer, it's idiot-proof to use (I should know !), and the ash-can in the bottom makes clean-up a breeze. I've rarely been this satisfied with a purchase as I have this Weber.

    A Classic that never lets you down
    After almost 20 years using only gas grills, I went back to the classic Weber kettle. Fogot what we were missing with the great charcoal cooked meals! Originally, I was going to just get a dedicated smoker only, but after watching many reviews online, I realized THIS can be used as a smoker as well a regular grill. We've smoked many meats, included the best ribs we've ever had! I've leard to cook "low and slow" for most of my usage with the Weber. We do still have a gas grill as well for quicker, more simple meals, but the Weber is now our go to grill for the most flavorful meals! These new versions (to me) with the ash catchers make it so easy to clean, without any mess, and doesnt blow the ash all over on windy days. I purchased this model over the next model up, because I didn't care for the grate system on the Deluxe model, not did I care for the lid holder which is afixed on the back, which seemed like an akward position. I did purchase a seperate adjustable, removable lid holder online and I use it on the Left Side, which is a much more natual position to me.

    AMAZING
    I have owned my Weber grill for years and it is still works great . Have told many friends and they have switched . Will be buying my second one next year just because we know grill out more than we use the stove . It breaks down easily also I have moved 5 times in the states and has survived.

      Weber Rocks!
      The new grill replaced a 21 year old Weber original 22" grill. Many improvements. The handle on top is so much better. The thermometer is a great addition, very helpful. I think the trap underneath is the best improvement. So easy to clean up. I use my Weber 2 or 3 times a week all year long. Love cooking with a Weber charcoal grill. Had a gas grill built in ground at my old house and will never go back.

      The classic!
      The kettle is a lower cost option than big stick burners or pellet grills that still gives you the opportunity to cook amazing food in a variety of different ways.

      A fun and enjoyable grill !!
      My kids knew I had been looking to purchase this grill and gave it to me as a gift. I, along with my kids, have enjoyed ever piece of meat I have grilled and smoked with this grill. It is easy and enjoyable to cook with and very well built.

      What a awesome grill!
      The Weber Premium 22” inch is my first grill. I’m new to grilling and this grill is truly a joy to use. The copper color and the design is beautiful. My grilling experience is so smooth and fun thanks to this grill. It’s easy to clean and store away. I’ll use it for years to come. By the way It’s only been one month since purchasing this grill and I’ve bought another one! Thank you

      Love my kettle grill!
      A girl can’t get enough grilling! I have BBQ’d steak, whole chickens, skewers and even smoked a brisket in this grill. I am impressed by the flavor I get from the wood and briquettes. My husband thinks I should enter contests because my BBQ and grilling tastes so good. It is just so simple and easy to make flavorful and delicious meals on I use it 3x per week. I love the green kettle. Super cute.

      Simply the BEST
      Great for indirect grilling. The deep round shape helps create a sort of convection allowing the smoke to penetrate all side.perfectly.

      Love my Weber
      I moved to Weber after owning a Competing product for a number of years. I absolutely love that the air vents in the bottom clean the ash out of the kettle. I’m certainly seals tighter for better heat control, more smoke flavour on the food and being able to close it off and save fuel for the next cook. The ash catcher is efficient and no sparks or flankers escape which is a nice piece of mind on a wooden patio. The grill is heavy and durable compared to competitors. I enjoy the lid holder hook as well and built in utensil hanging points in the handle.

        Best value for money!
        Received in good condition. It's a reasonably sturdy grill for its price. I already'd a few successful delicious barbecues done for my family so far and planning many more this summer.

        Overall
        Awesome. The only thing Weber should add is a better handle for the the lid vent.
