Weber 1647 18-Inch Grill Brush

On a scale of 1-10, I would rate this brush FANTABULOUS. It works better on the grill than, say, a laundry basket, or a polish sausage casing. Now, if you were to compare this brush to other devices that are actually intended (or capable) of cleaning a grill surface, it becomes a tighter race. Unfortunately, since I've never used any other grill brushes, I can't tell you how tight, nor give you any type of comparison whatsoever. I have asked the grill for it's personal opinion of the brush to help me clear matters up, but in the interest of staying impartial (grills rarely claim allegiance to any political or social parties) it has stayed silent. Candidly, I can tell you that the grill appears to enjoy this brush. You can really see the emotion when I approach the grill brandishing this large, happy brush. They certainly run in the same circles, and I would surmise they have mutual acquaintances. I would think this would at least ease the transition. Anyway, barring any employment issues, I think the grill and brush are a good fit.

I would definately recommend this brush. He smokes, but so does the grill, and only outside.

The grill brush is not only well made but made to last. It is a practical gift for the man of the BBQ.

The brush is ok but I think it is meant for the kettle grills and not the gas grill I purchased it for. The little metal tang on the front of the brush is useless for me. You can probably save a few bucks by going to your local hardward store and buying a wire brass brush.

I have owned several grill brushes with brass bristles and they have all done the same thing. Unfortunately, this one is no different. After a while the bristles mashed down and became next to useless. The scraper is not the right size for most grills, mine included, so it's not a very effective tool unless you are lucky enough to have the exact right gauge of rod on your grill.

If you are shopping around for a grill brush, I highly recommend a different product called the Grill Wizard. I found out about this from America's Test Kitchen (great show) and they rated it the top, so I bought one. Couldn't be happier.

This brush is brilliant. It doesn't ruin your grate like other steel brushes does (this one is not made of steel/iron). So it'll save you the frustration of buying a new grate because the other rusts.

Heres a tip on how to clean it. Mix a bowl of warm water with wash machine soap or a tab. Leave the head of the brush in the water overnight and behold - almost as good as new. Over time the wood/handle near the head will lose its protection, but rather that than an ugly brush :-)
