Gas Grills?

Not sure if this is the correct post, but
I am preparing to purchase a gas grill, Weber Q100 or the Iroda O-Grill 1000.

Any users with experience with either, or both?

Weber - name and quality is a +, size is a concern due to storage
O-Grill - smaller, good for storage and it has a little more BTU, unknown is quality of cooking and in general the unit

Can't go wrong with any of the Baby Q numbers, depends on how much you are willing to pay. Best small grill I have owned.

We owned a Weber Baby-Q for a while. Cooked very well, but found the grill was difficult to keep clean, and a bit bulky for storage for our needs.

We ended up with the Weber 1520 Propane Gas Go-Anywhere Grill

We've had it about 2-1/2 years with heavy use, the flame guard has burned through, it is time to replace it and we will buy another of the same model.

I had the Weber Baby Q then switched to the Napoleon (Iroda O-Grill 1000) which I got at Costco. I use the Baby Q at home now. I like the additional grilling space on the 1000 but either are great portable grills IMHO. Whichever suits your fancy will serve you well.

I have a Weber Q200 with a 2.6 gal propane tank and it is one of the best I have ever had. Easy to use and clean. It has the tray on each side and will also use the small screw on propane tanks.

We use the Coleman Road Trip. We like being able to change the from grills, gridles and reg. burner. We use it for breakfast and dinners. Ours has lasted 4 or 5 years.

We use a cuisinart. Has all the tools and will plank salmon and best of all fits in the front storage compartment like it was made to go there.

I've never experienced what you've mentioned. There is plenty of room under the lid of my Baby Q!

Used the 120 the past 3 months....worked very well for all of our cooking needs. We purchased the one with the temp gauge built in the front. Wife cleaned it easily at the end of our camping season with oven-off spray and hosed it down.

We use the baby Q has it's own folding table with wheels. Bought a propane line and hook it up to the door side tank. Works great.

OK, I have selected the Iroda O-Grill 1000. The construction seems solid and the grate is also solid. Very much like the Weber Q 100/200. What helped me make the decision is the size of the O-Grill when folded up for storage. I have a 2006 RL3400 and my storage areas are limited, unlike the newer "z" frame storage. It fits in the front compartment and allows for additional storage behind it. NOW, I just need to give it a test grill session, to see if it holds up to all of the reviews I have read over the past few days. I have 30 days to make a return. Purchased at CW, on sale for $131.

Thanks to all that responded with your comments. The Weber Q100 was always there, storage was the main issue for me.

Baby Q for us on the road and a 6-burner/smoker Weber Summit at home. I installed a T-connector right after the main regulator, installed a shut on/off valve, and ran the hose to the other side of the RV. No more bottles and small propane tanks and the grill can run off of either propane tank.

We use the Q200 also and works well for us. I have looked around and don't see any others that I like better.
