Weber Q 2400 Electric Grill Review
Get ready to redefine your grilling experience with the Weber Q 2400 Electric Grill review. This contemporary grill combines Weber’s time-tested grilling expertise with innovative design elements to create a comprehensive outdoor cooking solution. Whether you’re a novice or a seasoned grilling enthusiast, the Weber-Q-2400-Electric-Grill has something to offer everyone. Dive in as we unpack this ultimate grilling tool’s features, performance, and uniqueness.
The Q 2400 is the largest Weber electric hob with 280 square inches of cooking surface. It has a dark gray die-cast aluminum body and a glass-reinforced nylon frame. Most BBQ power outlets have a limited upper-temperature range, but many owners say Weber’s Q electrical outlets ordered a pretty good steak. Weber says their electricity reaches 500 degrees but can get hotter depending on the ambient temperature.
They attribute this to the two aluminum heat-retaining linings inside that prevent heat from escaping and promote uniform temperature. In addition, the conductive properties of the coated cast iron cooking grates on all Q models help to produce good cracks. 500 degrees isn’t what we’d call a steak temperature, but many owners who have switched from another electric brand to Weber find the sizzling temperature far superior. In 2014, Weber took apart the grill to place the optional cast iron grill on one side.
The design of this compact grill makes it easy to move around, as long as there’s electricity where you’re going. It can be used as a tabletop grill or attached to a folding stand with two legs, two wheels, and a tool hook.
A six-pin ground wire is standard. If you need an extension cord, it must be rated no less than the appliance cord. Extension cords must be marked with the letter “W” and have a tag stating “Suitable for use with outdoor equipment”. Use the shortest extension cord possible. Do not connect 2 or more wires. Q 2400 must be supplied via a grounded GFI socket. 15 amps minimum.

The Weber name is synonymous with a quality product and delicious BBQ meals. The Weber Q 2400 certainly doesn’t disappoint. Weber updated the Q 240 and the new version is the Weber Q 2400.

You won’t be disappointed with the flavors you can create with the Weber Q 55020001 2400 electric grill.
The porcelain-enameled cast-iron grates let you:
- sear burgers, steaks, and chops
- grill chicken and fish
- even grill vegetables and fruit!
One of the downfalls of electric grills is that it’s hard to find one to replicate the authenticity of a charcoal or gas grill, but we think you’ll be amazed at the taste of foods cooked on this electric grill. Plus food cooked on an electric grill is much healthier for you and your family. If you want that authentic grill taste, insert a steel box with wood chips when you start the grill and it will help to create that true grill flavor.
The Weber Q 2400 doesn’t have a temperature gauge, so it might take a few practice runs before you get the hang of cooking with it. Some users have mentioned there are hot spots on the grill, so you might have to find the place with the highest temperature for searing.
The Weber Q 2400 grill has all the features, yet it’s space-saving and portable – perfect for grillers living in condos or any place where you’re faced with restrictions governing gas and charcoal grill usage. The only downside of the Weber Q 2400 is that it takes 15 to 20 minutes for the grill to warm up. The Weber Q 2400 is for outdoor use only.
