The grill cart features stainless steel doors, chrome plated cast-aluminum handles, painted side and rear panels and four heavy-duty casters (2 locking and 2 swivel).

Back to TopKalamazoo Jul 11, 2019 Verified Purchaser  | Surprised I am surprised at some of the negative reviews. We have had several Webers which has spanned over 30 years, this one is great. We have owned the Summit 470 for one year and have used it on average 4 times per week, winter and summer. It has held up just fine and looks as good as new.Of course, I am responsible to keep it cleaned and covered, but that is it. I have had two issues with it, at no fault of the unit. When I called Weber, they have been more than helpful to make sure that I am satisfied - even when the issues were with the dealer and not them. I could attach a photo, but it looks just like new. | Was This Helpful? |
Outstanding Outstanding burners are located properly I love that the rod for the rotisserie has a location to keep from sticking out. | Was This Helpful? | |
Genesee, Colorado Mar 26, 2019 Verified Purchaser | I love this grill! I've had my Summit 4-series for 13 years. It is a member of my family. I grill on it year round in Colorado. One of my favorite things about this grill vs others is that it has really even heating across the grates. I also really like the infrared burner which I use for melting, toasting, crisping, rotisserie. Lastly, I like that it's made in the USA. | Was This Helpful? |
Bucks County , PA Dec 26, 2018 Verified Purchaser | Best Grill I Have Ever Owned! I just bought another Weber 470 grill but this time for propane instead of natural gas because I had moved to an area without natural gas. There was no doubt in m mind with regard to buying another Weber grill. The quality is there and parts should you need to replace anything such as grill grids flavor bars are readily available. Absolutely love the searing burners for perfect grill marks on my steaks and pork chops.The smoker box is awesome especially with its own burner and the rotisserie works great for grilling chickens and pork loins.
Great grill - will never own any other. | Was This Helpful? |
Healdsburg, CA Nov 18, 2018 Verified Purchaser | I love this grill. This grill has great performance for roasts and steaks. I also use the rotisserie frequently. In Northern California, we have a wet and relatively cold winter. I have had to leave it out in the elements without the cover because rats were finding the covered grill a comfortable place to build a nest. I have had no issues with corrosion.
I did have a friend crank on the burner control knob without pressing it in resulting in the plastic breaking. I think that might be the only piece of plastic on the entire fabulous grill. I am now on this website looking for a replacement burner control knob. | Was This Helpful? |
High End Item, regardless of the mainstream name Was somewhat skeptical of the high end status of this grill, since Weber is known as a mainstream line. Shopped / researched everything from Viking, Blaze, Saber, Traeger, Lynx, etc. Found that the Weber seemed to have some of the best features for the price.
.
For a little back story, I grill frequently. 2-4 times a week, in the summer, and 1-2 times a week (minimum) in the winter. Probably ~120 uses, annually. Have gone through multiple Char Broil "professional" (big box store) grills over the last 2 decades. You get lots of grilling space, but little quality (components rust quickly, grill surfaces degrade quickly, etc.). Really wanted to find the "last grill I will ever need". I don't have time to research this sort of purchase, every 3 to 5 years.
.
So, after much research, I found the S-470, with built in rotisserie, to be a good fit. One measurement that is rarely included in the "stats sheet" is the rotisserie height. I had to call/e-mail several manufacturers for this measurement, as part of my research. Having good rotisserie clearance is an absolute must, if you work with pork shoulders or larger cuts of meat. The S-470 was the best I could find (at about 9 inches above the burners). All of the others were a little lower, or I couldn't get any measurements.
.
After about 8 months of very active use, the Weber has turned out to be a very good purchase. Not as much cook surface as I would like, but the grill is very well built, with very few "hot spots", and all of the features I could want. Materials are solid. The sear burner works perfectly. The thermometer is accurate. Relatively easy to clean. Right now, my only complaint is the size of the cook surface, but that comes with price. The rotisserie has worked out very well, for larger pieces of meat. The smoker function (with it's dedicated burner) takes a little practice to get used to, but it functions as needed (once you learn the times & burner settings). Solid unit, all around | Was This Helpful? | |
Exeter NH Aug 13, 2018 Verified Purchaser | Had mine two years now and could not be happier! In short this is far and away the best gas grill I have ever owned. I worried a bit over the cost of it but once I started cooking I never had a second of buyer's remorse. It is very even and constant. The rotisserie is such a nice addition, I use it at least once or twice a month. The smoke box is great too. | Was This Helpful? |
Mount Airy, MD Jul 14, 2018 Verified Purchaser | This Grill is Awesome! Since purchasing this grill, each and every meal I've made has been as good as grilling gets. My guests seem to think I'm a great chef, but it's the grill!
I really enjoy the smoker box, the ruggedness of the stainless steel grill, the great control of the temperature and the way this unit looks.
If you are in the market for the "best of the best", I would recommend this grill! | Was This Helpful? |
Ft Wayne Indiana Jul 11, 2018 Verified Purchaser | The BEST EVER Natural Gas Grill I I have had my natural Gas 470 grill for over a year now. This is my 4th Weber, not because they wore out, I just kept upgrading, sold the previous ones which are still working. I still have my Q series for tailgating. There is nothing I can't do with this grill including smoking. I live in Indiana and use it all year round. Definitely worth the money and have suggested Weber to Friends who are also happy with theirs." Best Grill Known to Mankind" | Was This Helpful? |
Mayfield, OH. Jul 1, 2018 Verified Purchaser | Fantastic Grill I have had this grill for over 10 years. I love the smoke box within the grill, I use it often when cooking ribs. Heats evenly on the surface. The side burner is a nice feature. However, I think you should be able to control the temperature better on that burner. We use the grill year round, I shovel a path in the snow to get to the grill. | Was This Helpful? |
Expert Review
Back to Top)
The Skinny:
- Weber's top-of-the-line gas grill
- Control knob lighting
- Snap-Jet ignition for reliable startup
- 9mm stainless steel rod cooking grids
- Heavy duty stainless steel
Things We Love:
Weber Summit Gas Grills are Weber's top-of-the-line gas grill. The Summit's cooking system (burners, flavorizer bars, and beefy cooking grids) are all stainless steel. Along with the durable cooking system, there are several convenient features not found on other Weber gas grills that separate the Summit as the best.
The Weber Summit includes an attached Grill Out handle light that automatically illuminates your grill for easy nighttime cooking. I also really love the reliable start up using the Snap-Jet ignition since each different burner has its own flame throwing ignition. Another feature that takes convenience to the next level is the LED propane tank scale, which lets you know exactly where you stand on fuel at all times.
For minimizing flare-ups, the Summit's Stainless Steel Flavorizer bars can be found directly above the burners. They shield the burners by catching drippings and turning them to smoke, adding flavor to your food. Weber pioneered the Flavorizer bar in 1984, and since then they've proven to do their job extremely well, which is why they're still preventing flare-ups on all Weber gas grills today!
All Summit freestanding and grill center models include a 12,000 BTU side burner, which comes in handy if you need to warm up a side dish or a sauce. Additionally, when the side burner's lid is shut, it sits flush against its surface, which adds even more shelving space to the grill cart. The Summit 470 and 670 models include three additional features; a 10,600 BTU rear burner and rotisserie kit, a 10,600 BTU searing station for that extra high heat when you need it, and a 6,800 BTU wood chip smoker box with a dedicated burner.
With over 50 years in business, Weber Grills customer service is as good as it gets. They have a 10 year warranty on the grill body and on the burners. They have reputable service and quickly handle any service or replacement part situations.
Things To Consider:
The burner housing and the rear of the grill, even on the stainless steel models, are constructed of porcelain-enameled steel which is not as durable as other all stainless steel grills in the price range.
You'll Like This Grill If:
You want Weber's top-of-the-line grill that's powered by an all stainless steel cooking system with practical features that make grilling a breeze.
