Fuel

The Weber Genesis II e335 outdoor grill is fueled by either natural gas or propane gas. For easy connection to the natural gas, it comes with a cable in the package. Its ignition system was recently redesigned, and it has a 10-year warranty, allowing you to use it with more confidence. The ignition system has 4 main elements:

Electrodes

Every burner in this model has an electrode. The electrodes are positioned on the burners to ensure a consistent spark. Each electrode has a ceramic hood that captures the perfect amount of gas to help with ignition.

Wiring

The wires have a heavy-duty coating that increases heat resistance to ensure safety.

Ignition module

This module is well positioned away from the heat and protected from all elements. This design is safer and more convenient. The battery compartment has been repositioned for simple access, plus you can use easily accessible AA batteries.

Ease of Use/Maintenance

This is where this grill outshines other models in the market. It has multiple features like the ignition system that efficiently ignites the burners without failing. The Weber Genesis II e335 has a thermometer on the lid that helps you cook your food evenly. Plus, you can get the Bluetooth iGrill 3 thermometer then download the igrill App to monitor the food remotely.

Still, on the App, you can monitor the grill’s temperature and gas tank. There is an expanse cabinet that you can use to store grilling essentials. Furthermore, it has 6 hooks you can use to hang grilling towels and cutlery.

When it comes to maintenance, the Weber Genesis II e-335 gas grill is made of quality materials that ease maintenance. It is made of stainless steel that is stain-resistant, rustproof, and simple to clean. With a simple wipe with a wet cloth, the grill’s surfaces will be clean. Furthermore, the parts are detachable for cleaning.

It has a grease collection tray that collects food drips, and it can be replaced with an empty one to save on time.

Safety Features

Because this grill runs on either propane or natural gas, it can be dangerous in case of a fire. The two gases are highly flammable, especially when the gas valve is left on or when the temperatures around the tank are high.
