Webers are well known to be excellent BBQ's, and I've done a lot of searching for the past few days trying to find a good deal.
Haivng looked around, this model is at least £230 everywhere else, and most are over £250.
It's definitely a premium product and you can get cheaper BBQ's, but for reputation and quality, you can't beat a Weber.

Bought this in store, which they had a promo for an extra 15% off, paid £166 in the end. That's the cheapest I believe it's ever been.

I'll be receiving mine tomorrow, but read A LOT of reviews about them before buying it, and I've not read a bad review yet, it's also a Which Best Buy.
They aren't bad, but over priced for us in the UK as per usual, they are only $150 in the US. Never mind...
Yes they are ok, noticeable differences between Weber and Rosle is the attention to detail, weber's parts are usual made from aluminium and bits of mild steel were as Rosle are stainless.
I saw one of these in a department store in Germany and decided to order one up, it is a great deal better in it's construction and features.
I have three Webers, and must say I was disappointed that I purchased a Go-Anywere in 2009 and it started to rust already.
Im tempted but cant order the Weber Chimney Starter as they dont have any in stock....
Im not sure its worth it for a BBQ

They defiantly speed up lighting the charcoal, though im not sure how good the weber one is, i bought a £2.50 ones from homebase and its surprisingly really good.

I've had one for three years. It's brilliant. I use it almost every day in summer, less frequently but still once a fortnight or so all through winter.
Use a chimney starter, preferably the weber one purely because it is big. I tend to use restaurant grade lumpwood charcoal because the chunks are bigger and there is less unusable dust, but any good brand briquettes will be work too.
As well as the usual British BBQ stiff, I've seared steaks, vegetables, smoked chickens, briskets, ribs, pork butts, shoulders, fish etc etc. Very versatile, look up two zone cooking, read some American forums etc for ideas.
The ash clearing vents are great, scoops it all into a bucket to be emptied out. Grates are thick wire, holds a lot of heat so good sear marks on steaks, the grates hinge up so you can add smoking wood to the coals. Centre pops out to install weber branded accessories but I don't use these.
Thick enamel coating all over, Weber warranty is exceptional. I have absolutely no complaints, I've used it more than my oven.
Haste to DonnyBrago

I was hoping I'd be able to use mine as a smoker. What guide or recipe did you use initially?

I also got the Weber book which i can highly recommend ( https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B00YQNLV7I/ref=mp_s_a_1_18?ie=UTF8&qid=1492032731&sr=8-18&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=weber+bbq+book ). It has a lot of bbq recipes but also has cooking methods and tips specific for weber bbqs with the number of briquettes to achieve the temperature required and for how long.

The new F1 Air is really nice, the adjustment for the ventilation is made with a knob rather than the lever.
