I used to just buy those $50 grills at Costco, which only lasts a couple seasons, at the most. Usually the burner would warp and the heat spreader would completely rust through. Having bought a nice Weber charcoal for my parents' place. I figured they'd be a good choice for propane grilling on my apartment balcony.

I went and bought a Weber Q100, and I am impressed. It is a quality piece of grilling equipment. It's far more powerful at half power compared to the Costco special. It'll last a long time.

did you get the weber charcoal smokey joe for your parents?

If so, how does it compare with the Q 100 in terms of the following:

- time it takes to cook a basic beef patty

- easiness of maintaining and cleaning

- portability

- durability


btw, how much did you pay for the Q 100?
