Weber Q 100 (Baby Q) $55 Sears B&M YMMV

Quote from NewtonFine : YMMV, most definitely, depending on what you are grilling. I could get away with 1K burgers and steaks between cleaning intervals versus only 100 of the aforementioned Argentinean sausages. The solid portion of the grate does a piss-poor job of covering the jets. Otherwise, no one here (I noticed someone else mention they had the same issue) would find any reason to complain about such a nice, sturdy grill. If I spot one of these at my local Sears, I might just bite and conduct the mods I've mentioned. For now, I've adapted to using my Rhino tailgater. It all comes down to how you use the grill that you do own to get the most out of it anyways....

You need to look on vertualweberbullet and see all the people from around the world that cook EVERYTHING imaginable on their Q grills. If you're having problems with your burner you should call Weber's CS. They'd probably send you a new one at no charge. The Q grill is very well thought out and should provide decades of trouble free grilling for most folks. Personally I'd BBQ those sausages in a charcoal smoker.

Same here, the store manager would not PM. I am going to wait for the price drop. Dont need it at the moment.

Sears suck!

Quote from MrToilet : So I went to a local store, they had it on "clearance" for $99, he wouldn't budge on the price. I showed the picture of the receipt, he said "oh, that -1991 on the item means it was a return, stores can sell ti for whatever they want, we don't have to price match...." That's bullcrap if you ask me. Well........I bought the grill and portable stand anyway. $145 OTD for both the grill and stand is still a decent deal. Will other Sears do a price match if I bring the receipt there, I wonder?

There are 2 available at the Montclair, CA location. Just went and had the worker scan the price as I couldn't find it anywhere. $99. L

Left both of them as I was hoping for $55.

You guys should try again at the very end of the month/beg of next month. That's when stuff gets marked down to closeout, according to my local manager.

EDIT: Those of you that PM'd me for the store number and info, were you successful in getting a price match?

Shot down for price match at one store-but will keep trying. Thanks again for the post, and the store info.

Not sure that it matters too much to you guys, but I think I have figured out how to tell if the Q has the updated regulator or not. The old version [ebay.com] has a straight-through alignment. The grill with this regulator will only take the skinny bottles that you typically see on propane torches. The new version [ebay.com] has an "S" alignment and will take the larger camping style bottles.

I went to Ace and checked out the one they had on display and it would not take the bigger propane bottle. I am guessing the ones at Sears have the older one. That being said, given the prices I am seeing on these, i would still jump on the older one if I could find it for $100. They seem to be all sold out here except for the display model they have a sears that is missing parts. They wouldn't knock it down from the $100 clearance when I called and asked, they just said they would ship it back to Weber.

I wonder if you could get Weber to send you the missing parts. I've heard some are successful with that tactic for other grills. Also, when I got the grill, I also bought a display pressure washer on closeout and the cashier actually went in the back to rummage around for missing nozzles. She found various parts and gave them to me. Maybe Ace can do same?

Sorry, I realize that I wasn't clear. Ace still has it for 150, there is 1 sears here that has one in stock for 99 but it is missing parts. I may have to go check it out anyway and see what is missing. There seems to be a lot of parts available on ebay and amazon for it. I'm just not sure I want to mess with the skinny propane bottles though. Which regulator does yours have on it?

Quote from yurmaster : Weber made products are generally schlock with the exception of their charcoal kettle grills. Stay away at any price! I am a CGGP(Certified Gas Grill Professional).

You again? Take your screed against Weber somewhere else yurmaster - this is at least the third thread where you've come in to bash them. You may very well be an excellent griller, but your constant bashing of Weber does no one a service except to push people to cheaper grills that won't last nearly as long, or have anywhere near the support that Weber provides. Don't get me wrong, there are other excellent grills out there such as BroilKing or Napoleon.

This is a fantastic deal if you can replicate it. The Q's are made in the USA too if that matters to you. I would love to find one for my father in law.

Quote from shhaggy : I can't believe someone fell for that. He just made that certification up. The first clue? NOT recommending Weber grills, lol.

Exactly - He's come in to every single grilling related thread in recent memory to tout his made up credentials and to bash Weber grills. "Certified" is right... but not as a "grilling professional".

Quote from stgermaine : Oooo! I like this. Never knew how to do that. One caveat though: it is showing out of stock at the store where I took the picture less than an hour ago! No way they've sold out. Also, FYI, the price on that Google search is $99.97 at Sears B&M (not the actual $54). I hope that for those of you who want this, Sears will price match their own close out price. Anyone know? Print out the photo!

You're saying that the location you bought yours at shows 99.97 on google? That means there's hope for me.

Quote from m00ky : You're saying that the location you bought yours at shows 99.97 on google? That means there's hope for me.

Yes. Google showed $99.97 for the same store where I bought it for $54. Read the thread for more info on why.

was shot down on the price match too. Was told that they don't match clearance prices. But thanks for providing the info.

Thanks OP, got mine at Clackamas Town Center Sears in Portland. Got it for $100, still a great deal. I'm going to check back in with them at the end of the month and see it the price drops. Sears has a 14 day price guarantee.

Think they said they had one more in stock, didn't show in the inventory, but the warehouse guy said there was one more.
