I personally think it's awesome.  However, I scored a NIB unit for $60 in the summer of 2013.

A few minor, inexpensive mods and it cooks some fine pies. A little trial 'n error the first few times, but that's half the fun.

Like mine quite a bit. Well worth it once you dial it in.

Hello everyone,
I just get my first Weber Kettle, a One-Touch® silver 18.5. Up until now I have been using a Weber Char Q. Its a great grill. However, it is less than ideal when it comes to cooking pizza. I plan on purchasing a kettle pizza. I am wondering if there any advantages of taking both grills on camping trips. Can the One Touch do everything the Char Q can do? Please, note the cargo bay of my Xterra is only so big. Likewise, the cargo capacity of my small trailer is limited. Your input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your consideration.

Not sure if there's a K Pizza ring for the 18's, but maybe.....

As far as taking them along goes, personally, I'd try for both, but either one would do.....

Questions might be:

How many are you cooking for?

You're more familiar with the Q, so is that a consideration when doing up various dishes?

This might help when it comes to doing up a bunch on the 18.....whole dinner in a rotation cookup:

Try 2 firebricks laid down on the cooking grate, with pizza stone before investing in a Kettle Pizza. I'm not saying it's perfect but it works well. The firebricks block excess heat from burning the bottom/middle and raise it a notch to better finish the toppings. You'll still need plenty of heat for it to work, and the 18's flatter lid design works well here.
It's the iconic symbol for the backyard. It's family/friends, food and fun. What more do you need to feel everything [is] going to be all right. As long as we can still have a BBQ in our backyard, the world seems a bit of a better place. At least for that moment. -reillyranch
