Fabulous Grill.. Easy to Assemble Compact Quality
First, thanks to Amazon for offering great products and service, and the Amazon community for sharing experiences and tips.. particular thanks to the poster who pointed out the first two screws get the only washers.. and where to find the axle!
This grill has been well reviewed by many, so I'll keep this to a minimum with a few extra comments.
1. Fast! I ordered this at midnight on Friday night and it was on my doorstep at 10 AM on Monday morning.
2. The box is heavy (75 pounds) and large.. no surprise. A suggestion: open the box wherever it "landed" from UPS and bring it to your assembly area in parts. The grills are 30 pounds, so once they are out, the remainder weighs 45 lb, and you can bring the main grill section and the stand box in much easier
3. Quality. Cast aluminum shell, plastic frame for light weight but threaded inserts for strength where needed. Everything fits together perfectly.... took me only 30-40 minutes (engineer and do it yourselfer, however).
4. Grill surface is cast, and each "rib" is a wide rectangular cross section where the cooked item contacts the grill. This is hugely important for several reasons: we grilled salmon last night and for the first time ever just plopped it on the weber, and even the soft fish was supported and cooked without issue. Prior, we had to make an aluminum "tray" to cook salmon, otherwise it fell apart and through the grid of lesser grills. The wide heavy grill also allows temperature and flame control: other grills cook only with exposure to the flame, so cooking will be a function of the difficult control of the flame. With this weber, you can put meat on early.. with the grill not so hot... for a slower cook... or you can preheat to have the grill sizzling. Even thought I have only used it once, I can tell this is going to be one phenomenal grill.
Maintainability. Others have referred to Weber stocking parts. I have rebuilt several prior cheapo grills with parts I had to find at third party vendors... that "sorta" fit. I expect this will be my last grill, and will last my lifetime with occasional replacement parts
Compact. We looked everywhere for a compact grill that didn't take up half our deck.. and this is the only one that offered quality and compact size. This fits perfectly on our deck without blocking our view of Peachtree Creek nature area. Fold down trays are perfect: there when you need them and gone when you don't No, you can't sit on them but they should support a reasonably heavy platter.
I could not be more thrilled... and though I am really parsimonious, this is the best $320 + $30 cover I have ever spent!!!!
Great for a vacation home.
We bought this for our vacation home at the beach. It's perfect for our needs, a quality grill yet portable enough to store during the off season.
One Major Flaw 
This is obviously a quality product, packaged well, and relatively easy to assembly. However, lighting the grill with their electronic push-bottom system, is a problem. It worked for me about 10% of the time and then, after about 15 minutes of retries, I lit the grill with a match.
Weber has been very cooperative and is in the process of mailing me a new starter kit. This problem has been noted by other grill purchasers of the Q300 grill. I am confident that Weber will take care of my problem and I think that they will come up with a revised (or upgraded) lighting system in the near future.
This grill is a perfect size for a family of 2 to 6. It heats up quickly and cooks evenly. A fine product.
Great BBQ
This is a great BBQ that is so easy to use! It cooks evenly and it's wide grill is excellent - we've even cooked pizza dough on it with superb results! I would highly recommend this BBQ to anyone.
Great overall grill
When looking into purchasing my first grill, I went with Weber because I knew I would be purchasing a grill that would last. Every piece of the Q300 is built with quality materials and you can honestly feel the quality when you're putting the grill together. Even the plastic pieces of the grill cart are made of strong, durable plastic.
Although the Q-series grills were initially meant to be tailgating/portable grills, the Q300 will handle just about all of your grilling needs. This grill is certainly portable and it easily detaches from the cart if you want to make it even more portable. Just remove 4 bolts and you've got yourself a perfect tailgating grill.
The grilling space on the Q300 is great. With so much space, it's easy to grill something that pleases everyone. I've grilled for 20 people and had hamburgers, hotdogs, chicken, and veggie burgers all grilling at the same time. I've yet to find something that it cannot handle.
I am not a grill-master by any means, but I do enjoy grilling and I try to use my Q300 at least once a week. With that said, I'm not going to say this grill is for everyone, but if you need a grill that is reliable and long-lasting, Weber is the way to go.
Pros:
Heats up fast
Dual burner for great temperature control
Quality, quality, quality
Easy setup
Cons:
I just wish you could get the taste of charcoal from a gas grill
