If you mean the Napolean we looked at those. The Weber has better construction and at the same price. We have terrific heat control on ours. - davosfamExplorerI have considered one of the grill boxes as our Weber Q has been dying for a couple years now. We like to grill rib eyes and burgers (among other things) so the grill box might not be a good choice for us.
- Big_KatunaExplorer IIThe heat plates burn up the fat. But I never grill anything very greasy. I cook lean. I also usually Sous Vide my proteins and just use the grill to char the outside so the fat is left in the bag.
Bubba Burgers might be a problem. - davosfamExplorerWith the Camp Chef grill box, where does the grease go? Seems like it would be a huge mess.
- scubastuExplorerThe size of grill that it takes up to the space it takes in the RV.

I'm thinking of also getting rid of my 2 burner CampChef cook top. Because the Neapolitan is so versitial.
Its Napolean. A little turned off by the steel base.

Not sure how its more versatile than a Camp Chef. I have a pizza oven I can put on, take it off and put a grill on one side and fry or boil a pot on the other burner or convert it to a half or full size griddle.
I have quit taking my Weber Q since I got the Camp Chef. - scubastuExplorerI just retired my Weber Baby-Q and picked up a Neapolitan Travel-Q. I find it has better heat control. First time I fire it up, I maxed the thermostat at 800 F with both burners on. On low one burner 300 F.

I've tried getting the cheaper one s and one of the more expensive ones, like a Ducane. I knew I was in trouble with my Blue Rhino grill when the Blue Rhino emblem fell off. I bought my first Weber gas grill, a Silver, when Service Merchandise went out of business. After about 4.5 years, I had a problem with it, Weber sent me a new part ASAP...Great company. After using one of the smaller Weber Q's, I gave my Weber Silver to my daughter and bought a large (320 or something) Q for the house. I now own 3 Q's, the large one for the house, the 100 in the camper and a 120 at our place in Florida. IMHO this is the best engineered grill ever made. Although I will note that the Q models are not warrantied as long as the Silver ones.
