Weber Compact Kettle Charcoal Grill, Ø 47cm Grill Area, BBQ Grill with Porcelain-Enamelled Lid & Bowl, Tripod Stand & Wheels, Chromed Grill Grate - Black (1221004)

I wasn't sure if the 47cm size would be large enough for a BBQ for 4 but it's easily large enough. Extremely well made, it holds heat in better than any kettle style unit I've had and is perfect for smoking or fast grilling. For slower cooking I fitted a temperature gauge and in drilling the 20mm hole in the lid to take the gauges sensor is when I found out what this Weber is made of. Tough as old boots! I suspect that this Compact will last for years. The accessories that I feel are almost essential are a briquette/charcoal starter and a side mounted holder for the lid. The small hanger that is situated under the lid is too hit and miss and also is in the way of the prime position for an after market temp gauge. Buy it with confidence - it really is a superb bit of engineering using quality materials.

Finally replaced our original after over 20 years. There was no need to look for anything different as these are made to last, easy to care for, the ideal size for cooking for our family and easy to cook on. Some say they are expensive but given the longevity and amount of use ours had I would say they are extremely good value.

I didn’t use it yet , but can’t wait for the spring to come. I opened the box, and everything looks good , no damages. Reading all the good reviews and comments I am sure I will be happy too when I use it.

I knew this would be good and it meets all expectations. It arrives as a self-assembly kit, but is very easy to put together. When assembled, it forms an extremely sturdy unit. Lighting is reasonably easy, and I've never used firelighters. However, having used one before, I think the Weber the chimney starter (not supplied) is probably a useful addition (for speed, and for dispensing the right amount of charcoal). The BBQ offers plenty of space for a variety of foods and it's easily possible to cook all components of a meal for 4 on the grill at the same time. If you follow instructions (ie cooking with the lid ON, only opening it occasionally) the results are superb.

Bought this to replace my old one as it was dropping to bits & quite big taking up a lot of space. I think this is a Good quality BBQ & the right size for us as a couple, easy to store in the shed as it’s not too big. I found it a bit fiddly to put together on my own & didn’t study the photos properly as I initially put a leg on the wrong way, I hadn’t realised till I had put the wheel on & hammered the wheel nut in so it took a while to reverse the process! That said I’m happy with it now and it seems robust and sturdy enough. Good value for money as I got it at a reduced price, I can see me using it a lot.

Bought it during promotion, easy to assembly, took around 20 minutes, it’s sturdy and the build quality is good, especially the paint coating, it looks gorgeous!

I bought the Weber Compact Charcoal Grill as a gift for my entire family after having it for years, and it’s quickly become an essential part of our gatherings. It’s compact yet spacious enough for grilling up great meals, and the design is super easy to use. The charcoal flavor it adds to food is unbeatable, and the portability makes it perfect for family picnics or backyard BBQs. Supper functional due to size but just like any other grill, watch out because it gets really hot, nothing new when you are using hot coal to cook. We genuinely can’t live. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and high-quality grill!

I have been doing some research and asking around some bbq-franatic friends as well for recommendations before deciding what type and brand to go for. For us, it all came down to the Weber compact kettle charcoal grill barbecue. It is well built, well thought through, yet easy to use. Made of the highest guality materials. No detail about it is left to mere chance. We love everything about this grill - from the size,to how well it works, to how easy it is to keep it clean, the options it gives you, and last but not least, the taste of the food made on it! We bought the 47cm wide one, which easily accommodates a group of 10 ppl or even more. (tested it with 10, had loads of leftovers :)) ) We are rather beginners in the world of bbqing, and even for us it was relatively easy and straightforward to use. Of course, lots of room for imrpovement!:) We bought some accessories as well from weber, it is really worth investing in the whole bundle from the beginning. makes the whole experience much easier and much mor enjoyable. All in all, very happy customers here, only recommending this product! :)
