The Weber Go-Anywhere Gas is the lightest grill in this camping guide and one of the most packable. It is for couples and small groups of two to four who want a dependable gas grill for camper vans, picnics, balconies and festivals. Its clever detail is the folding legs, which swing up to lock the lid closed for carrying, then fold down to become a stable base.

In its favour
- At 5.22 kg it is by far the lightest and easiest grill to carry to a picnic spot.
- Folding legs lock the lid shut in transport and become a stable base when grilling.
- Porcelain-enamelled lid and bowl, which Weber says resist rust, cracking and peeling.
Good to know
- A 2.1 kW burner is the lowest output here and will struggle more in strong wind.
- The cooking area suits two to four people, so larger families will cook in batches.
Our take
Design and carrying
At 5.22 kg and about 31 x 53 x 37 cm, the Go-Anywhere is easy to carry with one hand and tucks under a camper van seat. The listing says the folding legs lock the lid during transport, so you do not need straps or a bag to keep it closed.
The porcelain-enamelled lid and bowl are described as resistant to rust, cracking and peeling. Weber's warranty covers the cookbox for ten years against rust through or burn through, and plastic parts for five years.
Heat and cooking methods
The burner produces 2.1 kW, lighting from a push button. That is the lowest output among the grills here, so expect slower recovery in strong wind; a sheltered spot helps.
Weber says it supports direct cooking for quick meals and indirect cooking using the vented lid, for chicken wings and other foods that need gentler heat. With the lid on, the listing says smoke is minimal, which is helpful on balconies.
Cooking area and setup
The item highlight gives a 42 x 26 cm cooking area, listed as about 1,036 cm². That is a meal for two to four. Larger families will need to cook in batches. Some assembly is required on arrival, and you should confirm the gas cartridge type for the UK.
How it compares
The Weber Q 1100N weighs 9.1 kg but offers a bigger 1,290 cm² cast iron grate, 2.93 kW and electronic ignition. The O-Grill 500 sits between them at 11 kg with a 1,065 cm² cast iron plate and a 9,000 BTU burner. For family trips, the Weber Traveler is the large option on its own trolley.
Verdict
The Go-Anywhere Gas suits couples and small groups who travel light and want a sturdy, easy-to-carry grill with a long cookbox warranty. If you cook for four regularly, the Weber Q 1100N gives a larger grate and more power for a few extra kilos, and families on the road may prefer the Weber Traveler.
