The Weber Q1000 is equipped with a cast aluminum body and lid, along with a glass-reinforced nylon frame. The material is lightweight yet durable, so the grill can be taken along on all your adventures.

The infinite control burner valve regulates the gas flow into the burner so the grilling process can be manipulated according to whatever is being cooked for ideal results every time the Weber® Q1200 with stand is fired up. Simply use the electronic ignition to light the gas going to the burner then away you go. The Weber brand was founded by a man named George Stephen, who invented the first kettle-style grill in 1952. Today, the company is the leading grill manufacturer in the US, representing nearly one-third of the market in terms of dollars spent.

The body of the Q3200 is mainly plastic casing, and all of the components feel a little flimsy considering its price point.

The Weber® Q® 1200 is a robust portable barbecue ideal for those who enjoy loading up the car or caravan and driving off for a camping weekend, picnic or even a day at the beach. So should you buy the Weber Q3200 gas barbecue? Well, overall we think this is a good entry-level gas BBQ. Especially if you're looking for an option that's compact, lightweight and easy to wheel in and out of the garage, and offers reliable cooking results.

Using the Weber® Q®1200 couldn’t be easier either. Whether you’re working with a disposable gas canister (26100) or have the barbecue connected to a refillable bottle using either adaptor kit (8524) or the 3 in 1 Adaptor hose (8482) - sold separately - once the fuel source is attached simply rotate the infinite control valve, fire-up by pushing the electronic ignition switch and wait just five minutes for the temperature of the stainless steel ‘Q’-shaped burner to get up, then you’re good to go!
