Just bought this grill, going to use it for the first time tonight. Thanks for the review!

Here are a couple of tips that make assembly slightly easier kzfaq.infoUgkxCx5fHawkK9OoV-ojFrY8JLnZrFwAmvUt . 1) One person can assemble, but if you have a buddy to help, it will make it go faster - especially steps 1-3 and 8 (the legs aren't heavy but can be difficult to hold while screwing things in). Step 8, 1st part will take some time unless you have two more hands OR are really lucky. 2) Use a socket wrench! 3) Step 7, 3rd part - the flame carry over tube has an open side, MAKE SURE THE OPEN SIDE IS FACING THE FRONT. If it's facing the back, the tube won't work. 4) Step 10, 3rd part - if you don't have small hands (I don't, they're gigantic) getting the nut on is really difficult (but not impossible). It took me about 4 hours to assemble, but I took a "union break" every 60-90 minutes and ate a quick lunch. Also, I'm really OCD so I took my time, looked at the instructions carefully, and cleaned up as I went.

Bought the Weber S-435 with the side burner, built it myself too! Great review!👌🇺🇲💥

Solid video. Thanks!

Just picked my e435 up last week. Cant wait to assemble and try it out !!! Coming from a much older summit 625 ,,, loved the size so went with the 435 (similar I believe) Worried about assembling the unit on my own,, but anxious as hell to get it going !!

Best grill ever! So glad for the investment which should last years.

Can’t wait to pick up my Weber genesis 2. Great review! I like how no wind can get into it. Hate grilling in windy days with my current char broil grill. Can’t wait for my upgrade to Weber! Also was that a robot lawnmower in the background at 11:58 haha

Nice video why do you prefer cast iron grates vs stainless steel?

hey... can u add a video of replacing igniter kit... mine seems to not be working and would be cool to see this

Hey Jared, I'm on the fence of buying a three burner one or the four burner one. I cook twice a year for a large crowd. But the rest of the year is for smaller groups. what do you recommend of going

Great video! Do you happen to know what year was this particular grill model released? Thanks!

I have the same one and i love it!! do you cover yours? also whats that things roaming around in the back ground on your grass?? LOL

Just two things from me - what are the specifics of the gas I need to buy for it and secondly does the adapter for gas bottle etc come with the bbq and lastly can you do a video of it actually cooking away something. Thanks

The lid is not powder coated. It is enamel coated. Enamel is where they get the "E" for the model number for your BBQ. For instance, Weber Genesis II E-435 versus the "S" which stands for stainless.

The background music really added something to this video. Not a good something

I cannot get side burner to light. I was hoping you would have shown side burner lighting. Overall great.

Got one of these on order. Your bbq looked pretty clean. What cleaning regime do you follow?

Rock N 💯💯

When/how are you searing your steaks? On my current grill (an old weber) I am using a recently popular technique where you cook for longer periods at lower temperature, then increase the heat and sear it. The problem is you have to remove the steaks/burgers while you get it up to sear temps, then put them back on to sear. I thought I heard you say something about turning on the searing burner when you turn on the others....Haven't figured out yet how to use the sear burner. I am planning to get the E435 model you showed here.

Your mower bro!!!!

Any problems with the side burner being too hot . I have the s-435 model and on the lowest setting its too hot to simmer anything

Hey mate, have you spit roasted pork or beef in this beast ?

How many BTUs is the side burner?

Great follow-up review! I just bought the same model, still needs to be assembled so I will check your other video. I think the black porcelain enameled lid is the way to go. My last Weber was a stainless steel Summit and that lid looked very discolored after a few years and it was always hard to keep clean. Also, I compared the new 2022 Genesis with the one you have (and the one I now have) and although it has a few new bells and whistles, it felt flimsier than the older gen.

Great grill and good review. But a few clarifications. The fire box (what you call the burn chamber) is not cast iron. It is cast aluminum -- which Weber has been using for fire boxes for decades. Aluminum is good for that use -- aluminum will not rust. A cast iron firebox would rust. The black lid and black doors are enameled steel. Enamel is what the E in E-435 stands for. So close to indestructable glass-like porcelain. So somewhat mis-leading to call it powder coated steel. The other versions of this grill is the S-435 - with S standing for stainless steel rather than E-enamel. The enamel version of this grill comes with coated cast iron cooking grates (which I like to cook on). The S version comes with SS grates.

OK, just for shits and giggles, I was looking for more of a how well it worked cooking on it, what you've cooked and how evenly it cooked, not so much an overview of the features...again. Features I can look up, how well the grill works, like when you got into year around grilling, was more beneficial for me.

Wrong way to start right out of the gate - you never light with lid down and you start with the far left burner and move right

Looks like it needs to be cleaned
