Thanks Joe! What you describe is what I was expecting. It is brand new, out of the box and I'm so disappointed. I bring lots of good quality beef from TX when I come here simply because it is impossible to come by here. The performance of the Weber leaves me very much uncomfortable as a good grill. You can't use a gas grill that takes over an hour to reach 400 degrees. I can't believe that all the folks that love this grill wait that long to heat it up....and then, once opened...do we wait another hour for it to get back to "heat" level?

Just went out again and looked at it. Don't think there is a blocked orifice. It looks just like a 12k burner would look to me...kind of low. I do have the griddle on one side of the grill so that may make the temps a little off but...if that makes this thing "not cook", I have no use for it. Looking for any answers/thoughts. As most know, I have no patience for this kind of stuff...but not sure what the answer would be...unless I bought another Coleman, which seems a bit silly.
