Portable Grill Challenge - Coleman Roadtrip v.s Weber Q1200
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 май 2017
- What's a good camping trip without some good grilled food? Right?! Well we love to eat and we especially love to grill; so when it came time to pick which grill to take with us on the road, selecting the right one was a "hot" topic.
We started our RV journey with the Coleman Road Trip LXE Portable 2 burner Propane Grill - 20,00 BTU but during a recent shopping trip we purchased the Weber Q 1200 LP Gas Grill. Since we have owned and cooked on both grills we wanted to share our pro's and con's list for each, along with making the above comparison video because one maybe better for you...

I have been using the Coleman Roadtrip for several years. Love it. The versatility of the changeable grill pieces allow me the ability to cook a full breakfast of eggs, bacon, and pancakes and in the evening grill out for dinner.
Why is that flame not heat
Great sincere review guys! I hope you make more like this in your travels. Beautiful RV by the way!
Great descriptions Well worth my time!
Clear information
Thanks!
thanks guys... I was leaning towards the Weber.. you helped me make a final decision..
I struggled between these two grills and finally bought the Coleman. Very pleased with my choice for all the reasons you outlined. Great video.
thanks! glad you enjoyed!
I have had the Weber Q1200 for almost 10 years. I bake bread in it, do cottage pies, and macaroni & cheese, use it as a smoker, bake the best pizzas, and do whole large chicken or leg of lamb - too many dishes to mention. The indirect heat facility makes all the difference. And of course, you can do burgers, steak, chops, pork, fish, and whatever you can do on a fire, you can do on this all-rounder.
Fair enough, we have accessories to facilitate the variety, but once you have it, it is a lifetime investment. Buy the Weber Bible and see for yourself.
Great, objective info & review. Thank for making the video!
Good info - thanks! I really like our O Grill 500 for the RV. Excellent quality for burner and temp control.
thanks Jim, diggin the OGrill youtube vids but haven't tried one yet. Our friends at Freedom Theory did a review on Road Gear Reviews which got us thinking about it as an option. We still love the Weber (mainly the disposable drip trays we can buy anywhere, high dome and light (we didn't show in our video but the optional night light rocks, open grill light turns on... close it turns off.. yes!!!). So many good choices out there, i think these are two of the front runerss and OGrill wins out if you need ultra portable with matched performance. Keep us posted on how it works for you over time. (amz link to light we have in case anyone needs it: amzn.to/2rq4RQZ)
I rarely comment on youtube videos. But this video was extremely informative and detailed (I liked how both of you gave your input). I am going to purchase a used Coleman and you helped me make that decision! Thank you for the video
Thanks so much. After your review, I'm buying the Q2200!
those coleman roadtrip grills are $350 up here in vancouver! but i got one on craigslist for $75
the weber here is $280 at home depot
and dont buy those trays on amazon!! or home depot!!! they're a rip off
you can get tinfoil trays like that at the dollarstore, usually 2 or 3 for $1 too
and all you would have to do is line the coleman drip tray and under the grills with tin foil and it would be super easy to clean
Grill Hack Alert!!! Great grill review! I just purchased the Weber 1200 ( orange in color ) I'm in love with it! I would like to share a grill hack.... if you line the inside of the dome lid with foil, it will keep your grill looking like new! Just change it out as needed. Thanks for sharing!
Latada very cool! will have to try that out. might help reflect heat also!
Why would anyone be concerned with keeping the inside of a grill lid "like new?"
@@jhitt79 because some people might want to sell their grill in the future for near new price by saying it is like new, barely used
@@glwoods8762 a weber is foweber... you dont sell that shit
I like the review. Our family saw you guys make the RV purchase on and the name escapes me now on that show
Awesome to see you guys two years down the line still living the life.
Now start popping out those kiddos so you’ll have more things to review:)
Very nice review! it felt honest, straight to the point!
I decided to buy the Coleman grill, surely best bang for the buck! and all thanks to you guys!
Great comparison!
Thank you very much for the video you guys helped me a lot.
Nice video! I have used the Weber Q1200 for two camping seasons. We have the stand as well. Love it!
cheap keybord stand with a plank of wood cut to length and width hang utensils off and it folds up portable and can put a keybord on it too
Weber 1200 big time it is easy to use and clean, perfect size to take everywhere!!!!
Yoandresrivero I just bought Weber 1200! 😀
Thanks for the review. I just bought the Coleman and find it to be everything you said it was.
Very cool thanks for watching and glad your happy with the purchase!
Good review and it’s a matter of needs and product attributes rather than just “personal preference”. Variables like ease of cleaning, adaptability to griddle or stove not covered.
very helpful- as I'm looking at buying one of these to plug into my camper's quick connect. I noticed you plug into a 20 lb bottle on its own and had misgivings about a longer hose for the Weber. Would you say it's better to use a shorter hose & independent bottle and forget about the quick connect?
Very professional. Love the camera light management in the shadows. Brilliant audio quality. Your videos are informative, to the point (not going blah blah) and at the same time very personal.
Question I have is : Will the Coleman be durable to do 100 skewers once a month, every month?
Great review. I ended up buying the the Weber. It get's really hot, and the enamelled cast iron is great and the meat won't stick.
Great vid guys!! Thanks keep it up!!
We have the Colman Raodtrip since they first came out and there is absolutely NO SLOW COOKING with it. I've been able to indirectly cook a tri-tip on one side with the flame off and the other side with the flame on, but I had to cover the vents on the lid to aid in keeping heat in. But if you're like us and prefer rare/med-rare, it's perfect. A wonderful searing grill for sure. Having the flat griddle is a must, especially for cooking greasy things like chicken thighs with skin. Without the griddle, they're so close to the flame that whatever greasy thing you're cooking will flame up and become charcoal quickly. Our drip-tray actually melted on one such flame-up... I went in to get something for a minute, never turn your back on this thing!
We purchased the storage bag that has wheels and it's great because our toy hauler no longer smells of decaying grill debris. But like yours, the wheels on ours are also all wonky and ready to fall off. I'm designing a fix for that and will blog about it.
Great video and information Weber Grill overall seems like the best deal for us thank you so much
We had a Coleman Grill back when they first came out. It was okay, but eventually fell apart. Now, we have the 1200 Weber and love it! We also got a 22 inch Blackstone griddle for Christmas and between the two, we are good to go! I really enjoy outdoor cooking and these two products fill our needs while full time on the road! Heck, I sold grills for over 20 years and never sold a Weber. Wish we had now, as I have been very happy with this grill. Nice video Erik on the difference and I would agree with all that you stated. Like I mentioned, the Coleman fell apart on us in a short time I might add! Stay safe out there!
Great comparisons
Take Care
I've had a Roadrtip for over 10 years. I bought a deluxe version that came with built in temp gauge, griddle and utensils. The coatings on the burners are now starting to flake off. Ha anyobe tried using grill mats with these?
Wonderig how to balance cooking over the Coleman Roadtrip cast iron grids. The middle is solid, the outer area is slotted.
Great review! I just got both at a yard sale.
Amazing, just bought the q1200 in Germany and its double the price despite being on sale. cost me 300 bucks....excited to try it out
Thanks for this comparison , the Weber Q it is!
Very timely for us. We have a cheapy grill we bought when we RV'd for vacations. We now live full-time and are about to take off on the road full-time as well and have been thinking about upgrading our grill. I have been looking at these exact models so really appreciate the information!
Thanks Denise, we have had both grills for over a year and like/dislike both for different reasons. Our biggest beef with the Weber is probably that it doesn't get as hot, but we love how small it is and it really does work well, just no 500 degree steak searing for us! Anyway, its a great grill and so is the Coleman, just in different ways. Thanks for watching!
I recently picked up the Coleman. I plan to take it with me car camping. Any tips on how one should port it along with a 20 lb tank.
Thanks for sharing, been doing research on gas grills for camping and this was very helpful. Just found your chancel subscribed just from watching this video. I will be checking out more of your videos.
Thanks Roxy! Appreciate the subscribe! Hope you enjoy the channel.
My brother in law has the Coleman Road trip and never used the darn thing . I bought a Weber Go Anywhere Gas Grill that I love . A Weber Q1200 that I bought a griddle for , just love the thing and a Q1400 electric grill for the patio . Mini Kamado grill for using charcoal and a Char Griller side box for parties in the Trailer park ! Being single any of the grills are perfect for me and another person . I also have a 3 burner gas grill for even bigger cookouts . It's been a lot of fun Grilling and Smoking my favorite meats and sea food . I got rid of my Texas Smoker because it was just too darn big . Kept the side box . Thanks for the information and video , happy Grilling and BBQ'ing with your grills .
Kala is hotter than the grill on full blast!
indeed! i'm so confused
"Erik works full time at Axiom Technology Group, a technology integration company he co-founded in 2010. Kala works as freelance Operations & Human Resources consultant for a variety of businesses."
So basically he's filthy rich and she just pretends to do something while living high on the hog
@@jaygriffin5710 you're disgusting.
Greasy SIMP
Do you know the packed dimensions of the Coleman?
Great video really appreciate it
Good video. I think you should have mentioned that the Coleman is manufactured in China. The Weber Q series is manufactured in Huntley, Illinios. The high end Genesis and Summit are manufactured in Palatine; the lower end full size Weber grills are made in China. It's not just an issue of quality but of being made in the USA that creates the higher cost for a Weber Q grill.
Manufactured in China, assembled in the US. A product only has to have 10% of parts made in the US to be labeled, made in the US.
The weber q is the most durable bbq i have ever seen.
China loves to use lead when manufacturing. California listed a warning on some Coleman grills.
What stand is that for the weber
a review well done!
We have the Weber Q2200 (in a 36ft RV) and love it! Fits well in one of our storage compartments and my husband (Who does all the grilling) loves it!
I own both of them, Weber Q1200 is a safe investment, Coleman can also be used as stove with the optional accessories
I had both, I can definitely tell you that the Weber is the superior product but it's expensive. You get what you pay for here. The stand makes a huge difference in the Weber, as it becomes easy to transport. If you with value, then yes go with Coleman, but if you can bite the bullet, get the Weber with the Stand.
Igot a weber q a year or so ago and it`s the best gas grill I`ve ever had.
Good point about the webber hose length
I will go with the Coleman, I have one love it!
RV FREEDOM yeah? I can get a new one for $110 tomorrow.
Just take it? I am debating between the two but I am a single man with my dog,
Bought our first RV and hitting the road next week.
My wife and I use the Webber 1200. We have not purchased a stand for it because we either sit it on a picnic table or use the folding table we always set up when we camp. We like the smaller size and have no problem cooking and eating with the kids and grandkids. We just feed the grandkids first and then cook for the adults. When it is just the two of us we can cook the burgers, grill the corn and toast the buns in a short time. The better quality construction was the deciding factor for us. Who wants a grill with a rolling stand if the wheels are going to fall off like in the video. WEBBER ALL THE WAY
I bought the coleman loved it so much,bought all the extras,Forgot it on the last trip then had to buy a second one when we got to Tn.Now i have one for home use also, LOL
Why would the longer hose cause the grill to shut off? The propane should still be high pressure coming through that hose, or did the 10 foot hose have a regulator built into it too? If that's the case then there might be a problem.
Thanks guys awesome info I was really leaning towards the Weber but I do like the value of the Coleman!!
James Lawson thanks!
yeah the coleman is best bang for the buck, need a little more effort in cleaning, but for the price it's good value.
I got the NXT100 coleman.
I own both of them and to be perfectly honest with you the Weber is great but I think you get more value with the Coleman. Cooks faster to. I bought a Coleman thermostat for $10 and drilled a hole right above the handle. with the Weber you would have to spend an additional $70 I'm just a stand and not to mention that the parts they sell are way overpriced. The Weber is also great but highly overpriced. Love both of them just giving you an honest review from someone who has them.
What is that folding table you have in the beginning of the video? I see a brand, "Kona" on it but am not having any luck with my searches so far.
It seems that the Coleman can do double duty, serving as an outdoor camp stove (something Coleman has always done well) as well as a grill. Looks great for making pancakes and bacon in the morning. Later that evening grill some chicken or steaks. I’d think about lining it with aluminum foil to keep the inside clean.
Weber all the way! Hack it out of the box (no one pounders). Simple, 1) Remove regulator. 2) Put a quick change where the reg was. 3) Get a quick change hose to connect right off your RV rig. Screw the one pound cylinders! Always one regulator in line, never more than one. Weber should have this as an option. Note: Be sure to use gas rated tape, yellow, and check for leaks!
I recently bought and assembled the Coleman grill. Wheel fell off like yours did, but almost immediately. Wheel mountings are plastic and cheaply made. I returned it and will go with the Weber. Enjoyed your video!!
Awww Michael that sucks. Our lasted for a while but we agree, a hollow wheel that can crack the housing with a light him from the side seems like a rookie mistake for a company who has been building grills that my father had in boy scouts.. Anyway, hopefully they shape up. One thing we can say though, if you call Coleman, they will send you just about anything including a replacement grill with very little fuss, they just want you to send them a picture with the old grill with sharpie written on it saying "DEAD" or something that proves you didn't try to resell or return it. Not a bad company.. but the quality of the little things needs a look at in our opinion (grill itself held up very well after 18 months of heavy use, outdoor life, rain etc. In over 12 months it never failed to light with the igniter which we were surprised to see..)
LivinLite.net I had the Weber Q, can't remember version for like 8-10years. But been without a grill for like a year or so. So I purchased this Coleman and right out of the box, I feel like I made a mistake. Yes it's a cheaper price point which I was hoping I can get by with. But the lid feels flimsy and the side trays and that back set up feels awkward like something is gonna snap. And I just got it. I just remember the Weber being so much more solid. Your thoughts please. Because I just purchased some Coleman assessories off of Amazon too like a full size flat plate and a cover. So I'm torn whether to send those back and go get my Weber.
I also know it may take some time but I did cook on it once. It does get hot and I guess you should cook on a lower setting so as not to burn your stuff.
@@CoachTadris The Weber Qs are stil a vastly superior quality compared to the Coleman, just in case anybody cares
5 years and I had to retire my Q, lots of great eats..
I purchased a Coleman during Primeday for 112$ .
We shall see.
I’m not grilling as much as before I purchased a Sous Vide.
Now I just need a finishing tool. Firing up a charcoal grill for a Sous Vide finisher vs a gas grill, seems to be a no brainer.
Sous Vide changed me life as a grill man.
Love my weber grills. The q is my home and travel grill. I use it for small cooking. I use my spirit for lager cooking
I have had the Weber Q-100 since 2008, still kicking, I had to replace the regulator, but that is the only problem I have ever had with it. Great grill for an apartment (The Q-1000 replaced the Q-100). Quality is fantastic on the Weber. I think I will still be using it, long after you are on your third or fourth Coleman.
love it
Just bought the Weber, saw both at Camping World and we're not full timers, just my wife and I on week long or weekend trips mostly. The one thing I would say of why I chose the Weber is because of the construction and durability, found several posts where people have had the compact Webers for 10 or more years and they're still working to this day. I found when looking at the Coleman, the construction of the grills materials was substandard, don't really feel like buying a new one every few years because the old one is burnt through the thinner cheaper metal. Cooking quick normally is not a good thing, most smaller grills have an issue with this problem and will constantly flare up when cooking a large amount of food, several of the reviews I read said that they had minimal flare up on the Weber and just looking at the Coleman I could tell that it would get hot. I figure also that you can buy a whole lot cheaper grills if quality and consistent cooking temperature and lack of flare ups were not an issue, plenty of cheap grills that you can buy that will serve similar to the thin metal Coleman but lower in price than it by far. Portability was important and the stand would make it difficult to store in the compartments in my rv seeing I am in a Travel Trailer. I also did like the fact that I was supporting American workers buying this product and am familiar with Weber quality. When it comes to grilling outdoors, Weber has always been the brand to trust. I am looking forward to having and using my new grill for the next 10 plus years and I hope you do as well.
I feel so different. I had the Coleman first and never liked it much at all. Hated the way it cooked and regretted getting it. Where the Webber cooks soooo good. I can’t do wrong on the Webber. I liked the Webber so much I bought the bigger version for home.
Where do u buy that stand for $70? for weber?
Very thoughtful review. It is harder to get the temp down on the Weber but it can be done. I like the quality of the Weber more and I think it is much easier to clean. The grates are heavier than the the Coleman's grates and they are better. The Coleman grates can warp easier.
I think you are both spot on. However, my choice would be to get the Weber for up to 1-4 people, OR the 2200 for a family of 5-8. I have both of them and have sold the Coleman because of the grate warping.
Lastly, there are plenty of aftermarket parts for the simple Weber Grill.
Any recommendations on how to keep the inside of the coleman low maintenance (as in easy to clean)? Would you recommend lining the bottom with foil and leave cutouts for the burner and drip hole?
that is probably not a bad idea but you'll be probably swapping out the foil one a month. Honestly even though it wasnt the cleanest, we didnt clean ours all that much and even though it looked dirty it never effected performance of the grill. Then one a quarter we used grill cleaner on it and it was back in pretty good shape. Good luck and if you use the foil let us know how you make out!
We have had our Coleman Roadtrip going on 15 yrs and it is now time to replace it and sadly can't find one so we purchased the Coleman X-Cursion and hope that it is as good.
Good comparison. Helpful. Thanks. (Minor note: weight is not an aesthetic property.)
Great job,
The only part I don’t like is that you don’t give your choice of what you would buy.
Which you prefer.
That’s what I want to know.
Just bought my first RV and my dog duke and I are taking off this week.
Have a black Jeep JKU we are hauling behind too.
See you both one day.
New subscribers. Love from TEXAS.
i stopped at dripped tray and that is when i decide to go to Weber. thanks
Like the Weber much better. Attractive design, efficient use of gas, just the right size for two or even four people, looks to be much more durable, very portable and easily stored.
Enjoy your time together
If you are mostly grilling for two to four people it's no contest. The Weber wins hands down. Just a whole lot better quality, durability, portability and uses your gas more efficiently. It's more expensive for a reason.
Nice video. I am looking to get the Weber Q 1200. I have all three Weber Charcoal grills and am looking to get my first gas grill for grilling in the fall and winter for something quick. I have been impressed with Weber's quality and warranty service so I am ok with paying for that better experience.
Thank you! We really like our gas Weber. Easy set up, great for fall and winter cooking. We felt the same and were OK with paying a little more. Keep us posted on which grill you decide to go with!
How to you keep the Coleman from flaming up when cooking hamburgers? I am known as the burn master.
Failed to mention that the Webber has enamel coated cast iron grill grates, that hold heat longer and hotter , and leaves great sear marks
Your review was really helpful, but the one thing you didn't mention was the difference in burners. Weber grill is a typical tube-like burner, most propane grills have. The Coleman "grill" is really a Coleman "stove." With round burners you would find in any camping stove or gas stove. I vote for the Weber Q. Yes it is more money, but I am looking for a grill, and it is quality. Not looking for another version of a Coleman stove, which I have two of in my garage.
I was never a fan of weber, until I bought a Q2200 with stand, I have the Coleman as well and I will never carry the Coleman again, too clunky and stand is hard to get down and up without snapping. The Weber cooks evenly, consistent, and the Weber fits better under our 5th wheel basement compartment, also Weber is easy to use different types of connectors and cables, but Coleman is popular just we love our Weber, even purchased the griddle and could not be happier.
Love the video, can you tell me where you found that pop up stand that you used for the Weber grill ?
Michael Belmarce We love that stand! Checkout our full article at livinlite.net/grill-challenge for links to everything including the stand which is available on Amazon. Great value. Look for GCI Cook Station in the links towards the end of article. Lots of other great accessories listed there too.
LivinLite.net
I think I might going to get the Weber grill because it is easier to clean than Coleman grill.
Great review but I do think the Coleman is a much better Grill other than the cooking a height of the lid but much better Grill the Coleman is I also owned both and I will keep going back to the Coleman
cheapest stand yes is a music keyboard stand $60 ajustable height all you need is a plank of wood cut to width and length put the portable bbq on an d it folds up you can put a keyboard on it too and hang utensils off it
Where did the white hair come from?
Think about longevity. My Coleman lasted 3 years. My Weber is 14 years old and still going strong.
plus Weber Q's are super efficient on propane usage!
my Weber is 14 or over...i have never even thought about replacing it...it's built right
We have both as well, have to say the Coleman is a real pain to keep clean. The Weber just take the grill out and scrap the stuff into the tray and your done. Can't do that with the Coleman
Why my coleman grill flame not heat
Do you have a link for that folding table?
nice RV!!
Thanks! We love it.
Oh look at that ribeye! How thick! Now let's have a documentary on a rich guy's ribeye while camping.
That's roughing it! Good job!
You can cook on propane!
your uploads are great, I like the camp chief myself. not really portable, but how far away from your RV do you cook? looking forward to your next upload.
thanks Kemo! More videos coming soon. Just had to get through a couple family parties and weddings but we are back soon!
I'm keen on her. She's a might bit purdy.
Has anyone in your circles considered electric grills you can find in those sizes ? no flare ups, give great flavor from smoke , clean easy no tanks just plug in , work great around house for small grill applications like your showing . Keith Wheeler , Nashville, Tn
Man card pulled!!!! Oh Webber is best
Thanks for the comparison. I just wish that when you guys are describing the pros and cons, you could cut to the grills, so we can listen to the audio while seeing what the grills are like instead of watching the hosts talk most of the time.
I just paid $124.05 for the Coleman (that price includes tax/shipping) on Amazons Prime day. I thought that was a great deal.
Great review! I'm looking for a small backyard gas grill to add to my Pit Barrel Cooker. My PBC does my "crowd cooking", but I wanted something quick, easy, and gas for quick night dinners for two. I've always trusted Weber because of their warranties and customer service. Would have liked to have seen a comparison on Coleman's warranty vs Weber's. Again, thanks much for the well-done comparison video and .... Happy Trails.
Thanks Sea, We haven't had experience with Weber from a warranty perspective (because we havent had any issues with our grill but we did need to replace a Coleman part one. They required we take pictures of the damage and then they promptly sent replacement parts. Very easy. The Coleman had a one year warranty. Hope this helps!
I've had the Coleman for 13 years and am now finally replacing it. Mind you, it still works and cooks great but the moving parts(lid, lock, trays etc.) are getting worn and a bit loose. The red coating has faded but not rusted at all. I'll be getting another Roadtrip and hope it lasts as long.
Most bbq video’s that are made on youtube is about using the Weber q. You should have done a steak on both to compare the grilling of the steaks and how the steaks taste. When it comes BBQ is mostly about on how well it grills and how well the food taste. Weber all the way and very easy to carry and clean.
That would have been a great idea. Unfortunately we no longer have our Coleman, so we can't do a steak grilling challenge, but what I can say from experience with cooking steaks on both grills - the Coleman would get hotter and to a higher temperature quicker - I found my steaks on the Coleman would get a more "BBQ" outside. Cooking a steak on the Weber while it would take a little longer would still taste great. So in all they both tasted the same (to me anyway). So I would say once you get used to your cooking times and temperatures you can make a pretty delicious and similar tasting steak on both grills. In regards to the portability - agreed weber is easier in that regard.
Really liking the weber. Been looking at getting one here in the UK. I have seen so many uses for it.....almost a full blown oven!!! Thing is they cost the best part of nearly $600!! Good vid.
Great video Erik and Kala! Love the grill challenge idea - it was fun as well as educational. Good balance of pros and cons. Very useful info for those on the fence between the two. We brought our Weber 200 with us from our townhome (ideal for that) in our RV but really it's bigger than we would want or need in our 36' motorhome. We may consider downsizing to the Weber q1200 and yes they do a great job of cooking a whole chicken! We love the aesthetics of the Weber and solid quality but yes paying more for it and the stand etc. My only question is... which one did you keep as we know you aren't carrying two grills!
Thanks so much guys. We would have never even considered the Weber if it wasn't for Marc's expert BBQ skills on that Q 200. He must have pumped out enough food for 15 people that day (and the next day, and the... lol)... Tell you what..When you are ready to get rid of that 200, we'll give you a few bucks towards your Q1200 for it as we'll set it up as a permanent fixture where we park the RV at home since we entertain a lot more there and don't need to worry about hauling it around! - Miss you guys! See you soon!!
Thanks Erik We miss you guys too. We will let you know when we are ready to switch up, would love for it to go to a good home since it was a wedding gift for us. We loved having it at our stick and brick home before hitting the road.
I don't really grill but this was easy to carry and bring with me camping as a backup in case ruclips.net/user/postUgkxTAV04Wwc8vZvciP7ycqR1S4raCS0TnUc I couldn't get a fire going. In my opinion it is better to bring a charcoal grill instead of a gas grill as a backup because if it rains or the leaves around are still damp from a recent rain; you can use the charcoal to help your fire keep going even though a gas grill is easier to temp control with. Overall, pleased with my purchase.
