Any information on how this compares in quality to a Weber Grill (Spirit)?

I have this at my FL home but have not used it yet. I do however have a new Webber 2 burner Spirit and love it. It is twice the price but great.

This cover was made for the Q series grills. Not sure but I think it will be too small. Weber does make a cover for the spirit grill.

I am assuming you're referring to the Lodge Sportsman charcoal Grill which is a terrific piece of equipment. I also have the Smoky Joe and use that a lot too. This is a difficult question to answer because they're pretty neck and neck when it comes to quality, ease-of-use, and final product. The Smoky Joe has a cover the Lodge Grill doesn't. How important is that to you? I like the cast-iron grate on the Lodge better than the chrome grate on the Weber but that's something you have to decide for yourself also. They both hold about the same number of burgers, hotdogs, etc. even though the lodge grill is a little larger. And because it's cast-iron it's going to be very heavy-a little over 30 pounds. The Lodge does an excellent job with steaks and hamburgers and actually now that I think about it does a better job than the Weber for those two because the cast iron heats up better than the Weber . The cast iron grill will last a lifetime if you take care of it. You can't do long slow cooking on the Lodge because it has no cover so you have to ask yourself what you do the most of-quick steaks, chops, burgers etc. or roasts and ribs. guess if the cover is not that important to you then I would definitely go with the Lodge grill even though it's more expensive. Weber and Lodge both make great products ...you can't go wrong with either one of them.

I have the weber genesis 330 it worked ok but the griddle never seemed to get as hot as I hoped for and I returned it after a few tries. Found a better one from Nordic ware it was not as heavy duty but did heat up much nicer. its on Amazon for 39.99 good luck

The heat output of the newer design from Weber really puts a lot more than the older generations. I have the NG model with the sear burner between the two left burners. This gives a lot of heat concentrated on this area.In other words, the searing power is more than adequate. If you check the models that run on a propane will put out even more heat, if the NG model is not hot enough for youIf you have an older weber genesis , you will be pleased with the new ones performance. Get the one with the sear (4th) burner. I can even make a small batch of fries with the side burner while I am cooking steaks.Good luck!Gh for you The heat output of the newer design from Weber really puts a lot more than the older generations.

It works just fine. It is actually much better quality than the Weber product. I am very pleased.

Pretty much all the overseas grills are made pretty equal. With that, having felt both grills, I would go with a grill with less features. There is less to break and with the elements, generally the fancy features wear down first.

The 2 17.375" x 5.25" GrillGrate Panels create a 17.375" x 10.5" grill surface. I suspect your Weber Spirit 3 has a significantly larger cooking surface. If you plan to use them cooking 4 or 6 steaks, or even smoking a pork shoulder these GrillGrate Panels should work very well.

According to the Weber website, all Genesis grills are made in USA. The low-end Spirit series is made in China.I actually looked at the label on the grills in the store to confirm this.

I am very happy with this grill. It cleans up beautifully even after grilling meat that has a sticky marinade. I would soak the grill in soapy water if there is coaked on residue but I have never had a problem getting it clean. I only use a plastic scrubber to avoid scratching the surface. I have another grill pan by Le Creuset that I spent 4x the amount for and it is impossible to get clean after soaking. This grill is a much better option in my opinion.

Customers have been extremely happy with the quality of the unit and the heat range...not sure exact specs versus Weber. It is extremely well built

I don't know the size of the Weber Spirit 700 grill. My grill measures 58" wide and it fits perfectly, not too tight but not baggy either.

I wouldn't say better, but I will say different! This is my second one(Masterbuilt)! Cooks well, and fast! I never had the George Forman stand grill but I had an indoor one and it was great so I would think that it is a personal preference! The way that you dispose of the run off from the meat is different between the grills! The Masterbuilt, I would recommend it to anyone!

I know nothing about the other models, but I'm happy with my little Weber. It is quite well constructed, just like the larger bowl models. My wife and I use it on our open deck.

It's not super heavy duty. But it isn't light cheap crap either. It's a decent quality, unless you plan on doing hardcore super grilling on a daily basis. I have a family of 5 and it's held up great. And we grill about every week, all year long. Including in the snow of Michigan. Hope that helps.

I'm not sure, but we do have a Weber Spirit Grill at a rental near by. Later today I can see if it fits that grill if you can wait? I'm not sure if it's a E320, but I know it's a Spirit.
