Theres a lot to talk about when it comes to the weber E-335 Gas Grill. Lets see how it stacks up against the E-310 which is webers best selling gas grill. you propbably noticed in my other video, that I was not a big fan of the 310. In fact I hated this grill. I hated the way it looked, and it just feels like weber goes a littel cheap on this grill. There are better options avaialbe like the Napoleon rogue series in my opinion. So why do I like the 335 so much. If I hated the 310. Well lets look at the upgrades that are offered with this gas grill. Well in my opinion this is going to sound like a stupid reason. But I love that they actually put doors on the grill. I looked terrible without doors, so the doors are a great cosmetic upgrade, on top of a good performace upgrade in the sense that critters or pets cant get into the grease tray as well. So big props for that being involved in the upgrade. Now just like all weber grills, this thing does excellent when it comes to performance. Very even cooking temps, we performed a test and this grill performed excellent with no hot spots anywhere. . Its also backed by 10 year warranty. The other upgrade is an extra sear burner. we tested the sear burner and it works! Also the other upgrade is a side burner. So that is a nice upgrade as well. So really the upgrades are quite nice, and its my favorite grill in the genesis series.

Shopping around and found your video - very informative, thorough and balanced.
thanks for the feedback!
About the open pedestal, I specifically bought a model WITHOUT doors, yes there is a market for it. Screw looks(I am setting this thing on fire and grilling meat!), I want functionality. Easier to hose all the bugs and cobwebs out.Way easier to clean out one that doesnt have the lower half contained. Also much prefer the tank on the side, I find it much easier to access/check.
All good points! Make sure to subscribe!
Great review sir!🤙🏾

I love the honesty of this guy.
thanks!
Yea, he's no BS and to the point. Good channel.
Thanks so,much ! It was worthy! I,like the way you test !

After watching all of your videos, I finally made my purchase. I have no need for the side burner. I decided not to get the sear station because of your bread test. The regular three burner did great. The one with sear station did not (got to watch the other video to see that). So, I went with the SE-315. Has the closed cart. Also, all the stainless steel inside with the awesome 9mm SS grates. While it is what's under the hood that counts, it did come in the deep ocean blue. It looks fantastic. Thanks for all the help.
In my opinion it looks better without the flimsy tank hiders, so I just did not install those.
nice!
great review man
Much appreciated!
Fantastic video. Looks like my e-310 is going on used sale before this season!
Good choice!
Great review. Thank you
Thanks for watching!
I just purchased the E-310 this Memorial weekend and I am one of those that definitely did NOT want the doors. The doors will just let spiders have more walls to grab onto and it would make it easier for the lizards (Florida) to hide in. I prefer to have easy access to the bottom area. I'm not into impressing anybody with the looks of our grill. Functionality is King. No use for the side burner at my house, just us two most of the time.
I am getting rid of our 20 year old Weber (I think its a Genesis 1100 or Silver B). Its wheels are falling apart and the crossover bar for the burners finally rusted out. Its been a reliable workhorse for us. I hope the E-310 lasts as long!
everyone is different in what they like! Congrats on the purchase!
Got the Weber Genesis II SE-315 3 Deep Ocean Blue for a Father’s Day gift for hubby….hope he likes it, watching this to
Learn.
I'm actually in the market for a new grill this year. I had my mind set on the rogue.. but am now holding off while i watch your reviews.. i like your weber vs napoleon series
Eatman what’s your top end of your budget?
@@embersliving i would say around 1k
Eatman if you liked the grill in the video above and don’t mind black, the SE-335 is the best you can get for $1000. It’s basically the same grill as the one above but has upgraded 9 mm stainless steel grates (the same ones as in the high end Summit) and a grill light.
I have a E-335 Black in color, NATURAL GAS hooked to the home line that is 2 months old. Plus, I bought Grill Grates. They ship 5 plates for this model. I have three that are grate side up, 2 upside down to make a griddle. I challenge anyone to beat my setup. Great even temps, never will run out of gas, plus NG heats hotter than LP. Sear marks that are unmatched, and I've never used the extra sear burner.
thats awesome! Make sure to subscribe
Had old rusted out natural gas Jenn Air, bought natural gas Genesis E-335 , assembled and delivered by local Ace Hardware store, wanted SE-335 with 9mm rod type SS grill but settled for E-335 with cast iron grills. Cheaper SS grills rod type grills are available to fit this model Weber.
Bought Weber cover and rotisserie kit , etc. from BBQ Guys. I like doors and storage space although there are openings for varmints to get in. Just ordered "Classic Superfast Thermapen probe type meat thermometer from ThermoWorks. Had to buy and install various fittings to connect with Weber quick disconnect setup. May buy a remote readout meat thermometer later. I like the "searing" burner feature. Got internal heat up nearly to near 650 degrees F for initial burn before first use as recommended.
that's great feedback!
I just bought the Spirit E-310 and I like its naked strong frame look, makes it feel more like a new retro looking backyard grill. The closed expensive fancy ones are a bit pricy for the avg person, but that fold down warming rack is a great feature on the genesis.
Very nice!
We just bought the E-335 today, awesome grill
Xlnt review. Thank you 🍻
You bet!
Ordered an S-335. Love it.
awesome
Expecting my Gen 11 E 335 before the July 4th. Believe I made an excellent choice.
it is. great grill!
Great review thanks! Would be good to compare this vs the Napoleon Rogue RSIB (infrared side burner) and maybe also against the Vermont Castings Vanguard XE
The Vermont is discontinued and we do not have access to it :(
Embers Fireplaces & Outdoor Living sorry to hear that! It could have been a nice 3 way comparison. But I maintain my suggestion about the Rogue RSIB. Not only because the grills are competitors but also because it would be nice to see a comparison of the infrared sizzle zone vs Weber’s sear station
Great video comparising and explanation, do you also have a meaning over this one : Campingaz Master 4 Series Classic LXS SBS Black Edition, it almost have the same things as the Genesis serie, but I haven't found a versus video between those two( by the way I'm from Belgium, don't know if the last one is available in your country), grts Philip
yeah i have not heard of that grill
Weber S-435 with upgraded 9mm grill vs Napoleon Prestige Pro 665. Would love to see that video!
That would be a good one! I don’t think it be much of a fight! The PRO665 would destroy it! But it is like double the price though
Embers Fireplaces & Outdoor Living just had to make a decision between those 2 and it’s my understanding that the Weber would cook more evenly all over the grill surface. Maybe a toasted bread test on both grills would answer that. It was a tough decision for me as I’m buying sight unseen but picked the Weber in stainless with upgraded 9mm grills. My last genesis lasted 15 years and was given away still functional. Hopefully I have the same luck this time around.
Plastic hardware prevents galvanic corrosion which is why they're used so much in cars/trucks. They were probably used to reduce rust on the thinner pieces of steel.
good point Don't forget to subscribe!
Would be nice to see the toast test on a Napoleon Prestige Pro series and compare with Weber Genesis!!
true! Coming soon!
I would like to see a review of the Weber Genesis E
315 grill. Thanks for your reviews.
Allen Sandusky it’s the 310 with doors. No other feature differences.
Actually there is a side burner and sear zone, so there are a few differences
coming soon!
sorry misunderstood your comment your right the 315 is the same
I want to see VS between the Weber e-335 and the Napoleon 425-1 XT. Here in Sweden the Napoleon is approx 100 dollars cheaper. Heard great things about both brands!
yeah you cant go wrong either way
yes you are so right the open cabinet I did not even think about it. My dog whould devour the drip pan and who know what other animals would.
ha very true
Same here, but my thought was my 18 month old daughter seeing the grease trap as a toy lol. Didn't even think about it until I saw his 310vs Napoleon Rouge video.
Loving the videos but they have me in a huge dilemma now on where to head now after a troublesome traeger ironwood has just been returned. Its either a weber genesis ii 335 or napoleon prestige 500 (if we ever get any more of these over the pond in the UK), so would love to see the Genesis 2 335 vs the prestige 500!!
Very good choices! Here is the comparison you need! czcams.com/video/zyJeGD1CpKI/video.html
Just bought the 315! Gotta have doors man...squirrels.
gotta have doors!
Plastic hardware is to increase profit, not to ease assembly.
good point
Screws are made from plastic so they don't damage plastic coating. If you damage coating that is potential rust spot.
good to know
Greetings Embers,nice review and you are one of the few that measures grate temperature.Weber states 500-550 grate temperature is optimum for searing.I have a Weber 3 burner LX and at 60 degrees ambiant temperature, this grill hits 960 degrees at the grate. As the ambient temperature increases, the grate temperature hits over 1000 degrees.When I sear a steak, I set the grill for 550 at the grill thermometer.A lot of people chide Weber for their low sear temperature,yet their master griller Jamie Purviance cooks all his steaks in their grilling book at 550 degrees using the built in grill
thermometer, I know this because I asked him.
I I would like to see you review a Neapolitan from Canada
we have them up! check them out!
Hi, thanks for sharing you mention the grill has no hotspots but when you showed the toast it was pretty burnt underneath where the sear station would be so the question I have was the sear station on when you guys done that test or was it just the three main burners thanks
just the main burners
Embers Fireplaces & Outdoor Living okay thanks
Great video. How would you compare this to the Napoleon Rouge 525? We have a Weber 315 I believe (has doors, no seer burner) at the cabin and it's amazing, checked out the 525 today and the lid felt so much lighter. My wife loves the blue of the 335, but there's a $450 CAD price difference. I've never used my side burner before, but maybe the one on be 335 is good enough to be worth it? Would love to hear your thoughts. This is for home to replace our garbage one after moving last fall. Thanks!
I like the rogue
Do you think its possible to buy the E-335 DOORS and put them on a E-310 ? . My sister-in-law gave me her E-310. Its brand new, she never used it. I'm happy to have it but I like the way the E-335 looks with doors. Do you think Webber sells the Doors ?
yeah but not sure if the housing can take them, and you wouldn't have any magnets mounted on the front to hold them in place
Have you run into (or heard of any) issues with the warming rack down? I can imagine is flipping out (gravity) when the hood is shut & hitting whatever you are cooking
I haven't heard of anything
Excellent video, which of the weber grills come with the steel grills. Or can you order the steels grill for the webber 335.
you gotta order stainless model instead of a color
I think you can just replace the grill grates it came with for the stainless ones.
Can one upgrade to the Weber 9mm SS Grates? I can only find the 7mm option which I do not want.
the SE should have those features
Can you buy griddles yet for the 3 burner version? I can only find ones suitable for the 4 burner and bigger.
that I am not sure on
hey friend, what do you prefer, instead, between these enamelled cast iron plates and the stainless steel ones on the SE-335 model?
stainless
I was wondering if the Weber sear station does just as well as the Napoleon rogue xt with a sizzle zone ? Please advise what would you go with if your looking to grill steaks with grill marks. Thanks
The Napoleon all the way. The sear zone gets 1,800 degrees. The Weber can’t touch it .
Embers Fireplaces & Outdoor Living, Thanks so much!
Weber Vs. Napoleon, maybe even Blaze!
dummy
Like to see a comparison with a Napoleon Rouge XT grill
its coming! Kind of... This guy is going up against the Prestige 500 by Napoleon
Nice review. Btw, temperature gun on shiny metal surface is not accurate. You need to adjust its emissivity settings.
thanks for the feedback
Trevor, on the 335, do you have to remove your grates to use the rotisserie?
there is no rotisserie feature on this grill
@@embersliving There is a specific Weber rotisserie kit made for this grill, you do have to remove grates for clearance with larger chickens, etc. Works well, wish Weber had designed higher mountings for more clearance with grates in place.
Your opinion on Weber Genesis ii E435 vs Napoleon Rogue XT 625 - which is better for the money?
Napoleon all day
@@embersliving The only issue we've ever had with our existing Weber grill (going on 24 years now) is with having to replace burners, flavor bars and now the regulator seems to be bad. We're ready for a new grill but, would a 15-year warranty on the Napoleon Rogue cover any more of the aforementioned wear items than Weber's 10-year warranty or would those need to be purchased with either the Napoleon or the Weber?
Whats the difference between the S-335 and the SE-335? Why is the SE (special edition) version "special"?
I think just the color
Only regret, designers did not provide enough clearance for mounting of rotisserie , must remove grates and cook small birds, etc. "Summit" models have much more clearance for rotisserie cooking.
oh I didn't know that. good comment
Weber Summit vs Genesis 335.
we have a video of that!
If you had to choose this or the 4 burner model which would you go with?
if you can swing it and have the space, its always nice to have the extra real estate on the grill
@@embersliving I don't know if I have the extra space but I like being able to run a grill on 2 burners and using the other side as a place to melt the cheese on my burgers
Yes it look as lot better with doors!
Pierre Blattner I agree!
Nice grill, and I’d love to by one. The only problem is I hate WEBER grills. I’ve had one for almost 20:years...a Genesis Silver or something like that. It has three burners that run side to side, no side burner, and I use Grillgrates. Ever since I’ve had it that damn thing has started every time with only one push of the ignition button. Oh, and the flavorizer bars had to be replaced after ten years. I keep it nice and clean, and peo0le think the piece of #@$& is new. So, that’s the biggest problem with WEBER grills... They are so well built that they last forever and you never get to buy a new one. I hate WEBER!
ha thats one way to look at it I suppose. We for sure get customers that replaced their grills out of being bored rather then it actually needing replacing
I liked that it takes two hands to light each burner, one at a time, and that the electric starter requires a battery that rusts out with the humid air and isnt covered under the 10 year warranty.
I also love that if the wind blows out one of the burners, it leaves the gas running and doesn’t start again unless you catch it out and push the ignite button again. Very dangerous.
Oh, I also love the partial concealment of the hanging propane tank on the side, so that everyone can see the rusty tank or the name brand of propane tank you bought.
I also love that the stainless steel shelves scratch with the slightest touch of a plate or beer can. Its also nice that the shelves don’t fold down for easy storage. Gotta love that.
ha, at first when I was reading. I was like wait a minute... great points!
Yea valid points I just bought one and came to same conclusions 🤣 Thinking shelf liners or something fml
@@shanew7361 i am a Napoleon owner now, and cant be happier. Also, highly recommend getting a set of aluminum, fitted grill grates. They can be flipped over to have a make-shift griddle, and they block any flare ups; easy to clean; never wear out. I assume using aluminum and steel together increases production costs. otherwise it just doesnt make sense to not use aluminum by these manufacturers.
@@gial8862 Funny you mention that. I was eyeballing the Prestige Pro 500. However decided on the Weber instead. I've been researching griddle inserts for the Weber or a griddle to place on top of the grates. Any suggestions on a BBQ gas grill griddle insert or on top of the grates? I was looking at the Saber EZ grill griddle that sits on top of the grates.
@@shanew7361 , well thats what i was trying to say but i failed. The company named Grill Grates offers an aluminum set that I would argue are the best grates ive ever had. Napoleons grates are really nice too, but having an aluminum set on top, that are easier to clean, never wear out, protect the existing grates, and do a great job keeping food moist, is just perfection. I had a Weber before I went with Napoleon. The latest model that is all black is incredible looking
I bought this as my first propane grill. It's been a fun, learning experience czcams.com/users/postUgkxCx5fHawkK9OoV-ojFrY8JLnZrFwAmvUt . I think it's a bit too pricey after looking at other grills, but it wasn't hard to put together and it works really well. I love the side burner option for heating food during a power outage. I have an electric stove and live in the South (Hurricane season), so this was a bonus. I also bought a cover for it and it has protected it nicely (the Char Broil All-Season Grill Cover 3-4 Burner: Large). Every few grill sessions, I take the rack (or grate) and burner covers off and clean them with a non-abrasive scrubby and mild soap. I wipe the excess off of the bottom as well, taking care to avoid the gas and pilot lines.
Thanks for watching!
Another great video! Thank you. I wish you would include where the grills are manufactured. Are Weber Genesis now made in China?
Some are. This one is made in Chicago
It's not a lot of extra money to get the 335 over the 310, and it worth it just for the bottom cabinet.
I agree
@@embersliving Me too
benefit of selling grills for a job. I got to get this guy in the stainless-steel version for $50.
nice
Think you have the grates upside down.
possibly
The best of the best vs weber Gas grill GENESIS S-435
in your opinion
ok
Can this connect to Natural Gas?
Yez
Is it just me or does the overall construction of the Genesis II series seem a little less sturdy than the Previous genesis series. I have one where the Base/cabinet/pedestal was built more liking of the Summit series of Grills.
thanks for the feedback
Yes, definitely cheaper thinner materials
I'm surprised they didnt have the searing burner on the side.
true
I just bought the Weber Genesis II model 315 at Home Depot. It cost $1149.00 - no side burner or sear zone, but it does have doors. The 335 would have set me back $1,399.00 - to me that wasn't worth the sear zone and the side burner that I wouldn't have used.
thanks for the feedback
Bought the Weber S-435 for $1249. 💥🔥 Picked it up and put together myself. PITFA 🤣🤪
@@shanew7361 that's great. Where did you buy it? I mean which city?
@@johnedieter739 Ace Hardware in Ann Arbor, MI. Weber was having a sale $50 off
@@shanew7361 ahh ok I bought mine in Toronto, so different currency :)
SE 335 is where it’s at.
we need to review it
Thanks for the Presentation. We currently own a Kitchen Aid and, all I can say it will be my last KitchenAid grill. I like the all stainless on the Kitchen Aid brand grill, but thats about it, because the firebox inside the grill is cheap as fuck, with thin welds holding it up. Our next grill will be a Weber grill, and I got my eyes on this Weber Genesis II E-335, because of the fact it has that molded firebox inside the grill. The grill we have now is a God damn backyard fire hazard, because the tiny welds holding it in place will collapse one day. Thanks again for your presentation and I subscribed to your channel, and Tomorrow we will go down to Home Depot and check out some Weber's, and for all you Vets out there, Home Depot and Lowes will give 10% off to Veterans of The US Armed Forces all year round.
thanks for the feedback
I’m starting to look for a propane bbq and need to decide between (1) Weber vs Napoleon, (2) Genesis 335 vs Napoleon comparable (or should I go to the 4 burner models), (3) model with cast iron grill vs stainless steel and (4) rotisserie height clearance between Weber and Napoleon. I typically use the bbq 3-4 times per week for everything from steaks, chicken, fish and grilling vegetables. I had a pellet smoker for the past 12 years and it finally met its day and now I’m looking for a propane bbq to replace it. Thank you for any advice that you can offer.
easy answer. Napoleon Prestige, comes with rotisserie better warranty and you get infrared cooking
Weber Genesis II 335 in stainless steel vs. Napoleon Prestige 500 stainless steel.
Ohhhh that’s a good one!
Funny, because I had the same question for you! Cant take my decision!!
Embers Fireplaces & Outdoor Living se335 vs prestige 500
Bad for that when you are doing the demo, the grates are upside down. :( Flat side up, per Weber.
I acknowledge that the one side big wheels and external tank are a matter of preference, I absolutely prefer it. The tank inside is a pain as you attempt to hang a full tank on the scale. The four caster design makes it impossible to pull the grill out of a shed and move across any surface that isn't a perfectly smooth concrete pad. Even a deck is a challenge. While I figure the casters are fine on an expensive grill, anything under a grand needs to at least have the option of a cart that can be moved over unpaved surfaces.
For this reason, I just bought a Genesis II on closeout. The new Genesis simply wouldn't work for me.
Also, I would have bought a Napoleon but I am all about supporting my local dealer and there isn't anyone within 60 miles that sells Napoleon but Weber is 10 minutes away at my local True Value.
oh nice
This weber or rouge 425 xt?
Weber
Couple words why?😂
@@embersliving is it because of the size? Please help me out
Rogue XT with Infared side burner......... compare video
The rogue is almost too low end for this. We are going to be posting one against the prestige 500
No doors on the 310 was all about Weber wanting to save money IMO. What they should have seen coming was people hated how it looked..Shame on them.
true, at least they came out with one that does though
@@embersliving But those of us that have been in business for years know, once a customer leaves your Company/Product, the cost to get them back is very high.
Though traditional Genesis grills were doorless.
The reason why they had an open cart is because that cheap sheet metal rusts out.
thanks for the feedback
Other than the side burner what other differences are there between the genesis 335 E and 315 E?
you loose the extra burner on the inside which is considered the sear station
@@embersliving thank you for your quick reply.
Would you then say that the extra money for the 335 E is for the two extra burners? Thanks
those big casters are crap too. Because they don't swivel they are very prone to bend on their vertical axis. I am looking to modify it with a big rubber casting from Harbor Freight or something
That’s a good idea!
Weber has disappointed me lately. They are cheapening their products and keeping the prices the same or raising them. I’m not sure if I would by a Weber anymore! Plastics screws? What the hell is that on a grill that’s costs what this grill costs!
true, there is a still a lot to like, but they are for sure in mass production. Make sure to subscribe
How do you upgrade from here?
what do you mean
i've seen grills set completely on fire too many times - why would anyone want to put a gas tank inside of the grill? It's just stupid. If people don't like the look of the gas tank - You can put it behind Genesis.
Hmmm interesting, in my 10 years of selling/testing/grilling I have never seen a grill get set completely on fire due to the propane tank being inside the grill. But hey you're the expert haha. Thanks for watching.
@@embersliving I'm not saying the grill was set on fire by the propane tank. I've seen grills burning because of too much fat dripping from sausage, because of a rubbish lying below the burners, and I've also seen a guy who decided to deep fry stuff in the wok filled with 3 litres of oil. There were flames from each side of the grill, few feet high. And in all these cases, having tank inside the grill is just dangerous... ps stop joking. You're an expert! I absolutely love Your content! Really great stuff! Thanks man!
@@GrillBastards Yep lots of dumb sobs out there. 🤣🔥
I hate that open grill bottom look
me too
@@embersliving I agree looks like 💩🤮
Don’t listen to this guy! The 310 is an awesome grill. You want doors buy the 315.
ok
Just picked up a e335 at costco on clearance for $400.
Oh dang great deal!
