I have had the Weber 28” griddle for a month now. I am astounded at how perfect the heat control is, from very high, to very low. The surface is very smooth and the grease trap at the front left corner if the perfect location, I never loose any food. I have cooked many meals already, and being able to have zone heating , that’s accurate, means I’m not worried about overcooking anything. Very easy to use, very easy to put together. Just wish the 36” was available in Canada
