The full-size griddle is a wonderful upgrade. In fact, we installed it right away, and have cooked everything on it. Steaks are wonderfully & evenly charred. Breakfast is incredible, and very fast when you can cook 10 pancakes at a time.

We even stacked the standard grill grate over top the griddle, and baked pizza in the weber. It worked great!

The only caution - It gets VERY hot! I'd recommended only preheating the grill using only about 50% of the gas flow. (We have the natural gas model) Using 50% gas flow, the grill heats to about 450°F. Much hotter, and even Avocado oil will flame up!

10/10 recommended the full size griddle top. It's extremely versatile, and makes cooking fast, easy, and delicious.
