5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome grill, but is it worth the extra cash?, March 28, 2011

This review is from: Weber 1421001 Performer Charcoal Grill, Black (Lawn & Patio)
NOTE: This review was updated on 08/10/2011. The update will follow my original review.

First I'm going to compare/contrast the various Weber grills, then for the new Weber user I'll explain why the Weber Kettle grill is such a fantastic choice. I have used and abused my Weber One-Touch Silver for over six years now, and though the Performer has quite a few advantages over the other models, is it really worth the extra cash? I say yes, and here's why -

I've used just about every variation of the Weber kettle grills over the years, and I currently own a One-Touch Silver. The following features are the advantages over the Silver.

- Hinged Cooking Grate
One of the first upgrades I bought for my Silver was a hinged grate, it's nice that this one (as well as the Gold) comes with it; I have found this instrumental for indirect cooking.

- Ash Pan
Also like the Gold, the Performer comes with a much higher quality ash pan. The Silvers ash... Read more

This review is from: Weber 1421001 Performer Charcoal Grill, Black (Lawn & Patio)
While I love my Genesis S-320, I decided I wanted to get in to charcoal grilling when time allows. Without question, I was going to buy a Weber, but I wasn't sure if I wanted to go with the One-Touch Gold, One-Touch Platinum (knowing I'd still buy accessories for both) or the Performer.

What really sold me was the propane ignition and the cart. Having this much workspace outside is invaluable, and I just don't trust larger items like turkey to the tables on the One-Touch Platinum or the... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Best of both worlds, May 9, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
I've had a variety of grilling / bbq products. Primarily Weber, given their history of solid products and great customer service.

I've always been a charcoal purist. Apartment living, however, has made me consider propane as a primary heat source for grilling. I recently bought the Weber Q220. It's a nice product, but it just doesn't get as hot as I need it to. So I sold my Q220 and decided to go with what I really wanted, which was this Weber Performer.

It's not petite - it takes up a good 3-4 feet width-wise and it's about 3 feet high.

Charcoal had always previously required me to get a chimney starter, as I'm not into soaking my briquets with lighter fluid. That meant a lot of smoke and wait time as I waited for the coals to get hot.

The Weber performer, however, uses the little, easy to find propane tanks (hardware stores, your local drugstore's seasonal merch section) to blast the coals with propane-powered fire in 10 mins. The coals... Read more
