Q 1200

The Weber Q 1200 is a compact single-burner portable propane gas grill with a 189 sq in cooking area.

$279Approx. MSRP

A dependable small tabletop gas grill for camping, tailgating, or apartment balconies, but plan on buying the right propane adapter and don't expect fine low-heat control.

Pros

  • Reliable electric starter and fast preheat
  • Even heat distribution for its size
  • Very well reviewed overall (4.6/5 across thousands of buyers)
  • Easy on the wallet ($279)
  • Light enough to move or store

Watch-outs

  • Limited low-temperature control
  • Propane tank compatibility requires extra hoses/adapters
  • Runs through fuel faster than similarly sized grills
  • Tight cooking area (189 sq in) — small batches

Known niggles

  • Temperature is hard to dial down — even on low, the cast-iron surface often stays above 500°F
  • Doesn't accept the common small 1lb Coleman-style propane tank without an adapter
  • Uses propane quickly relative to its size
  • Some regulators have failed and replacement parts were reported hard to source
