It comes with Weber’s great build quality and easy on the eye design, which also makes it a popular choice for folks when compared to other brands that use lower-quality materials. The three-burner setup is as powerful as a standard 4-burner grill, plus it has an extra burner squeezed in to create the sear station. As if we weren’t already impressed with the look of the grill, a quick scan of the features leaves us in awe of how much Weber has squeezed into this compact unit. But to top it off, the control knobs and other parts of the grill are branded with the weber logo and color-coded like you would get in a high-end sports car, it shouts quality.
As well as areas to prepare food, hang utensils, and store accessories. The Weber Spirit II E-310 is another in a long time of fantastic Weber grills. It’s powerful enough to sear your char broil performance meat and fish to perfection and large enough to feed your hungry family and some friends. As long as you’re not cooking for a backyard full of people, you’ll be more than fine.
One of the most distinct differences between the Spirit and Spirit II is in its cart design. While the Spirit comes in a cabinet design, the Spirit II is of an open-cart style. Though the Spirit II is an improved version of the Spirit grills, that isn’t the only reason one might want to invest in it. Both versions have advantages over the other, and choosing one that is more suited for you is the point of this comparison.
It is pretty easy to assemble and although you may require an assistant, the job should be done in under an hour. Look for grills in the $400 to $900 range with a cast-aluminum firebox (which holds heat well and won’t rust). If you want your grill to last, don’t cheap out on a budget model.
Well, you get a bit more fire power per burner, but apart from that there isn’t too much difference here. It is up to you to decide whether this is worth the higher price tag. This is one of the main elements that you need to look at when choosing any grill, and the Weber Spirit II E 310 is no different. The side shelves are definitely a great feature and practically a must at this price point.

Dial thermometers are often off by as much as 50°F so if you are not using a good digital thermometer we probably can’t help you with time and temp questions. Webers are not cheap, but when you consider that they last decades, the price is easy to justify. I don’t know which part of this thing is supposed to be nonstick, but judging by all the tasty residue from its first maiden voyage, there isn’t any!
The double doors feel substantial, and they swivel smoothly in their hinges. However, we’re bummed that Weber decided to move the propane tank hook and gauge from the side to under the firebox inside the cart. We can only imagine the crawling and contorting one must do to hook a full tank of liquid propane in that small cabinet. The Genesis E-325s has a bigger right-hand side table—23 inches wide by 17¾ inches long—than the previous version. That’s enough space to hold a half baking sheet, with room to spare.
