Weber 566002 Q 220: Customer Reviews

• It takes all of 5 minutes to assemble the Weber 566002 Q 220. Two pins for the cover, two screws for the handle, a nut for the thermometer. ANYBODY could do this in 10 min (with no more than a screwdriver.)
• Overall closed size of the grill is 31″ long x 16″ wide (with the cover handle and hinges sticking out a few more inches on each side). Closed height is approx 16″ off the table/ground. Grill surface area is slightly football shaped and has a max dimension of 15″wx 21″ long. The grill /grate of the Weber 566002 Q 220 itself is a 1 piece, massively heavy, ceramic coated cast iron with solid sections that protect the burner below from drippings (Very smart feature!)
• The cover of the Weber 566002 Q 220 is approx 7″ tall in the centre and includes a thermometer. The extra cover height makes it adequate to grill a whole chicken, ½ turkey or family sized roast.
• As for performance, the 12,500 BTU rating of the Weber 566002 Q 220 is still sufficient. However, with the combination of smaller cooking area, cast aluminium body and heavy grill, this Weber 566002 Q 220 can send the thermometer needle at 600deg F in just 15 min after pressing the ignition. So there is plenty of heat with the Weber 566002 Q 220.
• This a great grill but unfortunately, getting to get it to work can be a challenge at times as Weber has a longstanding problem that the safety valve in their regulators is very finicky, particularly if you try to use it with the separately sold Weber adapter hose and a larger 20lb propane tank. The problem with the Weber 566002 Q 220 in this regard is widespread and well documented in reviews across the internet.
• If you’re lucky, you’ll be able to get the Weber 566002 Q 220 to light up as long as you are willing to spend 5-10 minutes turning it on every single time – a long sequence of very slowly opening the valve on the propane tank and then letting it all sit for a while for pressures to equalize before you even try to turn on the Weber 566002 Q 220. Then it is a 5-15 minute “reset sequence” if you do something too fast and the Weber 566002 Q 220 doesn’t work the first time.
