Collectors don't get excited. It's black, not rare, not nib, not old stock, not expensive new or used.

It is a weber, it is a grill. It is something I do not have and something I may or may not use but what the heck.

Actually you are correct. It's a gas ga.

It's in great shape and came with a propane bottle.




I've noticed the new ga doesn't have the flavorizer but has a fancy grate instead. I read that the flavorizer bar is better. Anyone used a new one?

I have a older Ga gasser like that and like it. Cooks really good and convenient

Nice score. I have a charcoal ga but never used a gas.

Thanks guys. So far so good. This thing looked brand new. I just fired it up and cooked on it.  I pulled a BBQ pit boys move. It cooks very even. I'm impressed.

I assume you used very few briquettes to cook? Looks efficient.

I used no charcoal. It's a gas ga. I didn't think I would ever own a gas grill but this is a good compromise. It doesn't take up a lot of room and I've got an easy cooker for picnics or just a quick couple of hamburgers and hot dogs when needed.

I didn't realize my picture angle hid the propane bottle

Cooks really good doesn't it ? I've cooked on mine twice and just sausage, but was impressed! I committed to buy it from a seller before I realized it was gas and didn't want to back out  , plus it was only $12

Yes!  I couldn't believe how nice and even it cooked. I had imagined having to baby sit the sausages to keep from burning them but to my surprise, I could set it at medium and put the lid on and go back inside for a few minutes. No flare ups and cooked the sausage perfectly.  Filling it with hamburgers might be a different story but so far it's exceeding my expectations. I paid $25 so you have me beat.

Now I wouldn't mind finding a charcoal ga. That suit case design is really handy.

Yeah I'm still looking for the coal ga myself , but honestly for what people get these for , the gas is the ticket. Grab a little bottle and that's it , instead of coal , chimney , lighter cubes . Still getting a coal ga though. May try and cook some burgers on mine this weekend for lunch
