You will learn a damper and you are cooking for more than a couple. A 57 cm kettle is the grate the bullets size at six to eight people. The compact 57 cm does not name a thermometer. The Premium 57 cm bullets do.
The best Weber barbecues, compared.
Top pick: Weber Q 1200N with stand Best value: Weber Compact Kettle 47 cm – £49.49, a stand and wheels, and 4.5 from 377 ratings. The shared review file and the missing thermometer stay in the deduction. Updated October 2026.
A Weber barbecue is a complete lidded charcoal, gas or electric grill, not a tool set and not a cover. Judge them on the bowl finish, the grate, the damper or burner output, and a warranty you can read model by model. The cooking-area specification field is often wrong: the 57 cm bullet and Weber's UK page say 2,342 cm², while that field says 57 square centimetres. Gas models here have one burner and may not fit your cylinder. The Lumin is specified outdoor, one review in the extract. The [Weber barbecue buying guide](/hub/grills-and-barbecues/weber-barbecue/sub/weber-barbecue-buying-guide) sets out fuel, area, the thermometer and the bad specification fields without naming a winner. The shared review file and the missing thermometer stay in the score. Charcoal covers the stand kettles, the Smokey Joe and two Go-Anywhere models. Gas covers the Q grills and the Traveler, and every one of them has a single burner. Electric is only the Lumin Compact, listed at 2,300 watts. Two-zone gas is not in this set, so a hot side and a cool side are not something these gas listings offer. Who it feeds comes from the bullet, not from the cooking-area specification field.

Question 1 of 2
How will you move it?
The Q 1200N with stand is £389.00, with side tables, a compact stand, a lid thermometer, and bullets of 2.93 kW and 1,290 cm² for up to nine burgers. The dimension line is 45.5 × 105 × 109 cm and the listed weight is 19 kg. The star line is 5.0 from four reviews, and one of those four says gas canisters last about three hours without naming the canister. The extract asks whether it can be used on a balcony and does not answer. You are looking at the only gas model here whose title includes side tables. Four perfect scores are not a reason to place it above a charcoal Weber with more than a thousand reviews.
Pros
Cons
Best for: You want the stand and the side tables, and you will treat four reviews as a start rather than a verdict.
Less suitable: Anyone reading 5.0 as a better grill than a listing with hundreds of reviews, or a narrow balcony.
Specifications
Common questions
Can it be used on a balcony?
The extract asks and does not answer. The indoor/outdoor field says outdoor. The unit weighs 19 kg and is 105 cm wide in the dimension line.
How many reviews are there?
Four, at 5.0. One of them says gas canisters last about three hours. The canister type is not named.
Does it have side tables?
Yes. They are in the title and the bullets, with a compact stand. The Q 1100N title does not include them.
The Lumin Compact is the only electric grill in this set, at £271.81 and 2,300 watts, model 1502012. The title says 43 × 32 cm and up to 315°C, with a thermometer named there, while Weber's UK page says 1,166 cm² from a 43 × 28 cm grate and 12 kg. This extract's specification field says 43 square centimetres and the item weight is 11.8 kg. The indoor/outdoor field says outdoor, and the question about indoor use has no answer, so you should not treat silence as permission. There is one review, at 5.0, which likes the simple switch-on and says charcoal flavour is absent. Steam, smoke, keep-warm, and defrost accessories are sold separately, and the plug type is not stated.
Pros
Cons
Best for: An outdoor electric cook with no fuel to store, if one review is enough for you to try it.
Less suitable: Indoor use, charcoal flavour, or a buyer who needs the plug type stated before they pay.
Specifications
Common questions
Can it be used indoors?
The extract asks and does not answer. The indoor/outdoor field says outdoor. Do not treat the unanswered question as a yes.
What do buyers say?
There is one review, at 5.0. It praises the simple switch-on and says charcoal flavour is absent.
Are the extra cooking modes included?
The bullets say grill, steam, smoke, keep warm, or defrost with accessories sold separately. Included components lists the lid.
The Q 2100N is the largest one-burner gas grill here, at £419.00, model 1501063. The bullets say 4.1 kW, 2,065 cm², a lid thermometer, up to 12 burgers, and up to 316°C. A bullet says 13.5 kg and the item-weight field says 18 kg. There are no side tables in the title, and one review says this model has no external side plates, which is the gap you close only by choosing the Q 1200N instead. The Connect hub is sold separately. The star line is 4.9 from 16 reviews, the assembly field says no, and one review calls the build slightly fiddly.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A hotter single gas burner and the larger Q grate, if you do not need side tables.
Less suitable: Two heat zones, a stand with tables, or a gas grill under £300.
Specifications
Common questions
Does the Q 2100N have side tables?
Not in the title. One review says this model has no external side plates. The Q 1200N listing is the one with side tables and a stand.
How heavy is it?
A bullet says 13.5 kg. The item-weight field says 18 kg. Both are in the extract.
Is the Connect hub included?
No. The bullets say the grill has a holder for a Weber Connect hub that is sold separately.
The Go-Anywhere charcoal, model 1131004, is the top pick in this set: 4.7 from 1,645 amazon.co.uk reviews, at £100.79, with a sample no other listing here comes near. Weber's UK page for that model gives 6.78 kg and a cooking area stated as 42 × 26, while this extract lists 5.22 kg and a specification field of 56.66 square centimetres. The bullets say the folding legs lock the lid for carrying, and that closing the damper cuts off the coals. In the first 50 UK reviews, a warped grate, soft handle nuts, chipped enamel, and a latch that loosens are repeated often enough to treat as the pattern. One review says there are no handles for moving it once it is lit, so you place it before you light it. A cover is not in the included-components line. It leads this comparison on evidence and price, not because those grate complaints have gone away.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A boot, a caravan, or a small outdoor space, if you set it down before you light it.
Less suitable: Six to eight people, a lid thermometer, or anyone who will carry it while the coals are hot.
Specifications
Common questions
Is a cover included?
The extract asks and does not answer. Included components says Barbecue Grill. A cover is not named.
What breaks in the reviews?
Across the first 50 UK reviews, repeated points are a warped grate, soft handle nuts, chipped enamel, and a latch that loosens. The score is 4.7 from 1,645.
Can you move it once it is lit?
One review says there are no handles for that. The bullets say the folding legs lock the lid for carrying when it is packed.
Model 1500763 is a portable charcoal Go-Anywhere at £97.43, listed for two to four people at 6.35 kg, with bullets that name a two-piece grate and a char-rail. It is not model 1131004, the other Go-Anywhere here at £100.79 and the number on Weber's UK page. The cooking-area field says 160 square inches rather than a centimetre figure you can set beside the kettles. The star line is 4.6 from 117 reviews, and only four of 44 review blocks are marked United Kingdom. One review says handle screws were missing, another that the char-rail was missing, and one that the enamel was chipped around the vents. A thermometer is not stated, and the warranty field is blank.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A small charcoal carry when you have checked the model number is 1500763.
Less suitable: You meant 1131004, or you wanted a lid thermometer and a large UK review sample.
Specifications
Common questions
Is this the same Go-Anywhere as model 1131004?
No. This extract is model 1500763 at £97.43. Model 1131004 is a different ASIN at £100.79.
Are the reviews from the UK?
The star line is 4.6 from 117. Only four of 44 review blocks in the file are marked Reviewed in the United Kingdom.
What arrived incomplete?
One review says handle screws were missing. Another says the char-rail was missing. One says the enamel was chipped around the vents.
The Smokey Joe Premium is a 37 cm tabletop charcoal kettle at £84.99, model 1121004, with a Tuck-N-Carry lid that locks for carrying. Weber's UK page lists 5.48 kg, while this extract's weight field says 4.5 g, which you cannot use, and the specification field says 0.11 square metres. The bullets say closing the damper extinguishes the coals and that the grill is for outdoor use. Across 1,394 reviews at 4.5, enamel flaking where the lid handle screws on dominates the first 50 UK reviews, including people who say they did not overtighten it. Reviewers often put the grate at two or three people. You get a small kettle with a long history on amazon.co.uk, and a lid finish that history keeps marking at the handle.
Pros
Cons
Best for: Two or three people, if you can live with enamel chips at the handle or you will still check that screw carefully.
Less suitable: A household of six, or a lid you need to stay unmarked around the handle.
Specifications
Common questions
Why do reviews talk about the lid handle?
In the first 50 UK reviews, enamel flaking where the handle screws on is the dominant complaint, including people who say they did not overtighten it.
What does the weight field say?
4.5 g. That is the printed item weight. The highlight says a 37 cm barbecue, so the field is not a usable weight.
How do you put the coals out?
The bullets say you close the damper completely to cut off oxygen and extinguish the coals. They also say the grill is for outdoor use.
The Compact Kettle 57 cm lists 2,342 cm² and six to eight people for £99.99, on a stand with wheels and an ash catcher. The bullets do not name a thermometer, and reviews in the file complain that one is missing. Those opening reviews match the 47 cm compact file, including text that names a 47 cm grill, so the 4.5 from 378 is not a clean sample of this model. The item-weight field says 3.77 kg, next to 9 kg on the 47 cm compact in the same batch, which leaves you without a weight you can plan a lift around. The specification field says 57 square centimetres. You would be buying the larger bullet area without a gauge, and without a review file that stays on this ASIN.
Pros
Cons
Best for: You want the 57 cm bullet area and you already know this file's reviews are not only about this model.
Less suitable: You need a thermometer, a usable weight, or a review sample that is not shared with the 47 cm compact.
Specifications
Common questions
Why is the weight 3.77 kg?
That is the item-weight field in the extract. The 47 cm compact in the same batch lists 9 kg. The figure is stored as printed.
Are the reviews only about this 57 cm model?
No. The opening reviews match the 47 cm compact file, including text that names a 47 cm grill.
Does the bullet list include a thermometer?
No. Reviews in the file complain that one is missing. The bullets name dampers and an ash catcher.
The Compact Kettle 47 cm is the £49.49 charcoal stand in this set, with bullets of 1,548 cm² for four to six people, all-weather wheels, and an ash catcher. A lid thermometer is not in those bullets, though reviews in the file say a description promised one. That review text also appears on the 57 cm compact listing, so the 4.5 from 377 reviews is not a separate study of this bowl alone. The specification field says 47 square centimetres, and the material lines say plastic and ceramic while the bullets say a porcelain-enamelled bowl and a plated-steel grate. You get the cheapest wheeled kettle here, and you judge the fire without the gauge the original 47 cm names. The warranty field prints "2.", which is not a statement of what those two years cover. It is the best value in this set: £49.49, a stand and wheels, and 4.5 from 377 ratings, with the shared review file and the missing thermometer kept in the deduction.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A first stand kettle for four to six people, if you will judge the coals by eye.
Less suitable: You wanted a lid thermometer, or you need the six-to-eight grate of a 57 cm kettle.
Specifications
Common questions
Does the compact 47 cm have a thermometer?
Not in the bullets. Reviews in this file say a description promised one. The same reviews also appear on the 57 cm compact listing.
What is the grate size in the bullets?
1,548 cm², for four to six people. The specification field says 47 square centimetres.
Is it only a camping accessory?
The item-type field says Camping Accessory. The title is a kettle with a stand and wheels, and the fuel field says charcoal.
The Original Kettle Premium 57 cm is a stand charcoal kettle whose bullets give you 2,342 cm², a lid thermometer, One-Touch cleaning, and room for six to eight people. Weber's UK page for model 1502210 agrees the grate is 2,342 cm² and quotes 18 kg and 13 burgers, while this amazon.co.uk extract lists 13.6 kg and a specification field of 57 square centimetres. Across 117 reviews at 4.5, praise sits on assembly, heat, and the ash bucket, and the same file includes soft handle nuts and a missing screw. You still light it outdoors and control it with the dampers in the lid and the bowl. At £239.00 you are paying for the thermometer and the ash sweep that the compact kettles in this set do not name. The 57 square centimetre line is not a cooking area you can plan a meal around.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A garden cook for six to eight, if you want the thermometer and the ash sweep and you will use the bullet area, not the 57 cm² field.
Less suitable: A boot or a narrow ledge, or anyone treating 57 square centimetres as the grate.
Specifications
Common questions
Does this kettle include a lid thermometer?
Yes. The bullets and the special-features line both name a built-in thermometer, plus dampers in the lid and bowl.
How big is the cooking area?
The bullets say 2,342 cm², for six to eight people. The specification field says 57 square centimetres. Both figures are in the extract.
What do buyers mention?
The listing is 4.5 from 117 reviews. Praise centres on assembly, heat, and the ash bucket. Complaints include soft handle nuts and a missing screw.
The Original Kettle 47 cm names a lid thermometer and One-Touch cleaning at £111.24, without the £239.00 Premium. The bullets name both, on a stand with wheels, with 1,548 cm² for four to six people. The £49.49 compact omits those two parts. The specification field says 47 square centimetres, which you should set aside in favour of the bullet. The star line is 4.5 from 65 reviews, and only five of 34 review blocks in the file are marked United Kingdom. One UK review says it is fine for two and runs out of space after that. Another says there is only one handle, so it is less easy to lift than an older kettle.
Pros
Cons
Best for: Four to six people, when you want the thermometer and the ash sweep without paying £239.00.
Less suitable: A household that needs the six-to-eight grate, or a buyer who only reads the 47 square centimetre field.
Specifications
Common questions
How is this different from the compact 47 cm?
These bullets name a lid thermometer and One-Touch cleaning. The compact 47 cm bullets do not. This listing is £111.24. The compact extract is £49.49.
Will it feed six people?
The bullets say four to six. One UK review says it is fine for two and runs out of space after that. Only five of 34 review blocks are marked United Kingdom.
Does it have wheels?
The title says stand and wheels. One review says there is only one handle, so it is less easy to lift than an older kettle.
The Traveler Compact is a wheeled one-burner gas grill at £322.01, model 1500554. The specification field says 1,872 cm², special features name a built-in thermometer, and the bullets say up to four people while also saying 12 burgers or 15 sausages. Width is 81 cm and weight is 17 kg in the bullets, against item fields of 54.6 × 86.4 × 88.3 cm and 18.1 kg. One review names EN417 cartridges and says to check fittings before using other cylinders. Reviews say it folds, and that the wheels are the weak point. The sample is 4.5 from 30 reviews, which shows a folding cart and does not turn that single cartridge note into a survey.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A folding gas grill for up to four people, once the cartridge matches the one that review named.
Less suitable: A household cylinder, two heat zones, or a ledge that cannot take about 18 kg.
Specifications
Common questions
Which gas cartridge does it use?
One review says EN417 cartridges and says to check fittings before using other cylinders. The bullets do not name the cartridge.
Does it fold?
Reviews say it folds and that assembly is mainly the wheels. One review says the wheels are the weak point.
How wide is it?
The bullets say 81 cm and 17 kg. The item fields say 54.6 x 86.4 x 88.3 cm and 18.1 kg.
The Q 1100N is a one-burner gas grill at £289.00, model 1501925. The bullets say 2.93 kW, 1,290 cm², a lid thermometer, 9.1 kg, and nine burgers, while a wattage field on the same extract says 230 watts. Across 76 reviews at 4.4, buyers say the hose suits Weber's small canisters, and one says an adapter for a normal cylinder cost about £55. The canister is not in the included-components line. One review says the box had four instruction sets and none was in English, which is one box, not a check of every delivery. A review also says you cannot hold two temperatures at once. At 9.1 kg it is a carry, and one reviewer found it heavy to take far.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A weeknight gas cook once you have identified Weber's small canister, or you have bought the adapter that review described.
Less suitable: A patio cylinder you already own, two heat zones, or a long carry.
Specifications
Common questions
Which gas bottle does it take?
Reviews say the connection is for Weber's small canisters. One reviewer says an adapter for a normal cylinder cost about £55. The canister is not in the included-components line.
Is it a two-zone gas grill?
No. The extract says one main burner. A review says you cannot hold two temperatures at once.
Are the instructions in English?
One review says the box had four instruction sets and none was in English. That is one review, not a check of every box.
Scores use the twelve amazon.co.uk listings kept for this comparison on 15 October 2026, plus the review notes for those listings. Each score is out of 100. This is an editorial score for this set, not a laboratory cook, and not a claim about every Weber barbecue on sale in the UK. Deductions cover an absurd specification field, a repeated defect, a review pool shared with another ASIN, a handful of reviews, a gas fitting that is not a patio cylinder, and a weight or material field that contradicts the bullets.

Use this section to separate charcoal, one-burner gas and the electric Lumin before you read the scores. The table ranks twelve amazon.co.uk listings from 15 October 2026. It does not cook a meal, and it does not treat a 5.0 from four reviews as a longer record than 1,645 reviews. The notes below follow the buying criteria for this set.
A Weber barbecue in this comparison is a complete lidded grill. Charcoal covers the stand kettles, the Smokey Joe and two Go-Anywhere models. Gas covers the Q grills and the Traveler, and every one of them has a single burner. Electric is only the Lumin Compact, listed at 2,300 watts. Two-zone gas is not in this set, so a hot side and a cool side are not something these gas listings offer. Who it feeds comes from the bullet, not from the cooking-area specification field.

The Premium 57 cm bullet and Weber's page say 2,342 cm². The specification field says 57 square centimetres. The same pattern appears as 47 square centimetres and as 56.66 square centimetres. Plan from the bullet, or from the Weber page when you quote both.
Model 1131004 is the Weber UK listing at £100.79, with 1,645 reviews at 4.7. Model 1500763 is a different ASIN at £97.43. A missing char-rail on 1500763 is not a note about 1131004.
Q 1100N reviews say the hose is for a small Weber canister. One reviewer paid about £55 for an adapter. A Traveler review names EN417 cartridges. Four or five stars do not identify the fitting.
Start with the fuel, because this set mixes charcoal, one-burner gas and one electric grill. Charcoal is the kettles, the Smokey Joe Premium and the two Go-Anywhere model numbers. Gas is the Q 1100N, Q 1200N, Q 2100N and the Traveler Compact, each with one burner, so there is no hot side and cool side. Electric is the Lumin Compact at 2,300 watts. Then read who the bullet says it feeds. A 47 cm kettle is four to six people and 1,548 cm². A 57 cm kettle is six to eight and 2,342 cm².
Original Kettle bullets include a lid thermometer and One-Touch cleaning. Compact Kettle bullets do not, and the shared compact reviews complain that a thermometer was promised. The Smokey Joe locks with a Tuck-N-Carry lid. Go-Anywhere legs lock the lid for carrying, and you set that grill down before you light it. On gas, name the fitting before the burner output. Q 1100N reviews point at Weber's small canisters. A Traveler review names EN417.
Three typical situations, each with a recommendation from this comparison.
You will learn a damper and you are cooking for more than a couple. A 57 cm kettle is the grate the bullets size at six to eight people. The compact 57 cm does not name a thermometer. The Premium 57 cm bullets do.
You want charcoal you can carry. The Go-Anywhere 1131004 is the Weber UK model, at 4.7 from 1,645 reviews. Keep model 1500763 separate. If you look at the Smokey Joe, enamel at the lid handle is the main UK review theme.
A Q or the Traveler only after you have identified the canister. These gas listings have one burner. The Q 1100N reviews point at Weber's small canisters. The Lumin is the no-flame option, and the specification says outdoor.
Twelve amazon.co.uk listings cover charcoal kettles, two Go-Anywhere models, one-burner gas grills and the Lumin Compact. The Go-Anywhere charcoal, model 1131004, is the top pick: the highest score in this set, 4.7 from 1,645 reviews, at £100.79. The best value is the Compact Kettle 47 cm at £49.49, with a stand, wheels and 4.5 from 377 ratings. The shared review file and the missing thermometer stay in the deduction. The Smokey Joe scores one point higher overall and does not take that badge, because it costs £84.99 and enamel at the lid handle is the main UK review theme.
