Advantages: good quick cooked food, smokes your meat well, easy to use Disadvantages: non adjustable grill, rare risk of hot coals dropping on your leg from the bottom of the BBQ
This BBQ is so much more better than any gas or electric BBQs because of the use of the char coal. It leaves a better and cleaner taste, than gas or electric BBQs because some gas BBQs gives a gas taste in your foods and it can be toxic! Electric BBQs just simply have no taste at all! That way in my point of view, i always use the Weber One Touch Silver BBQ! It can be long lasting for at least three or four years, and it is easy to clean and easy to put away for non BBQ seasons! It has a lid with an adjustable vent to control the amount of smoke and heat, and the same thing on the bottom of the BBQ. This can also be useful to use as a heat source on cold summer nights with your friends at a party in stead of a camp fire and it is much more safer than a camp fire too! I think this BBQ is so great because it cooks my meals fast ...
Advantages: Good Entry Level Weber Disadvantages: Open Ash Catcher
The Weber One Touch Silver is pretty much the entry level range of Weber 's BBQ range. I have bought one of these barbecues from www.dawsonsdepartmentstore.co.uk and it came with a free Weber BBQ cover.

Thus the One Touch Cleaning system.
The difference between the One Touch Silver and One Touch Gold is the ash catcher. On the One Touch Silver the ash catcher is open (the disc at the bottom in the picture), this needs to be emptied every time the bbq is used as the ash can be blown around and can get into the eyes of children and guests if its windy. The Weber One Touch Gold has an enclosed Ash Catcher, ash cannot escape and can be emptied after ...
Advantages: Built to last Disadvantages: More expensive - but worth it.
or a quality product that would last 10 years or more.
From an ethical / environmental perspective I dislike the idea of products which only last one or two uses or which really can?t be repaired or modified. We went around Homebase, B&Q and our local garden centre. The big chains had a good selection of models but didn?t carry all the accessories. The local independent garden centre on the other hand was a little more expensive but actually had a really good selection and all of the accessories.
We went for the Weber One Touch Platinum after looking seriously at the Outback models. We really liked the kettledrum design and the integrated ash collection tray. There are lower priced models of the Weber but what is really good about the Platinum version is the integrated holder for the lid. On this model you can just push the lid to ...
