Gas BBQ Recommendations c.£200-300

[wilbo83]

As per title, am looking for gas BBQ recommendations, ideally a 2 or 3 burner.

The Weber Spirit E210 is what I am considering (I can get it for about £300 as the OH works at John Lewis) however wondering what else I should check out. Ideally would like to spend less, but I appreciate that the Weber will be built to last.

The Char-broil T22G looks decent too.

Sorry OP, another Hijack

I've never owned a gas BBQ before. Does the Weber E210 come with everything you need to connect it to the gas bottle? In other words can I simply go buy a gas bottle and connect her up or do I need to buy anything else?

Can you connect a 13kg bottle or 5kg only?

Is it worth paying £40 for assembly (John Lewis)? I'm dangerous with a spanner and screwdriver

That's ok, all the thread hijacks are keeping it going and giving me more useful info. Weber certainly seems unanimous at the moment.

I would be interested to know if the Weber can also be used with lava rocks?

From what I have seen online, only the 5kg fits in the cupboard at the bottom. You can use a 13kg but it would have to sit alongside.

I decided to go for the reputed quality of a Weber and placed an order for a Spirit E-210 yesterday.
