Amazon.com Review

Cleaning your grill is essential because anything left on the grate will cause uneven heat when you cook. But when you've finished grilling some savory steaks, burgers, chickens, and veggies, the last thing you want to do is clean up the mess. With Weber's grill brush/scraper, it's really not so bad. This 18-inch brush/scraper has hardwood handles and brass bristles, so you won't be left with rusty residue or stubborn leftover grime. When you're finished, hang the tool by its leather strap until your next outdoor feast. --Rhonda Langdon

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Brush for Grillular Hygene, June 16, 2000

This review is from: Weber 1647 18-Inch Grill Brush (Lawn & Patio)

I've had several of these over the years and they work great. I never wear one out - I think they get carted off by the neighbors or marauding coyotes.

The flexible brass bristles won't scrape the enamel off your grill bars and are great for softer accumulations. The scraper blade has a half circle "nip" out of it that fits the contour of the grill bars if you have a really ugly mess to remove (those slathered up ribs you laid on there before the vollyball game). The longer handle on this model lets you keep the hair on your fingers if the fire is still going.

The leather loop allows you to hang it on the grill or the arm of your lawn chair so it stays within reach. You may have to fend off the local cats and dogs if you hang it too close to the ground. Maybe they need to come out with a quick draw holster for it to solve that one! On second thought, a Prazi "Big Lug" on your tool belt might work. Yeah, Barbeque Sauce and seasoning in the pockets of the tool belt. This could turn into a Tool Crib thing!

4.0 out of 5 stars Very good grill brush, May 16, 2000

I have only minimal complaints after using this. If the brush had a firmer gripping surface, it might make for a little easier brushing. For that fact alone, I dropped it a full star.

Don't get me wrong; this is a GREAT BRUSH! If you are looking for something good to scrape your grill with, this won't hurt. However, I personally would make a few improvements, only to the gripping area.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good grill brush, but not the best price., April 24, 2002

I'm not sure Amazon will print this review, but here goes...

The brush itself is very good. Sturdy and well designed. The handle is long enough to let you scrub the grill while it's still warm and strong enough to let you use some elbow-grease. The bristles are densely packed for better scrubbing. If they were longer you could get a bit more of the grate at one time, but I don't think they'd scrub as well (since it's the tips of the bristles that do the real scrubbing and not the sides). The curved scraper does a good job getting each individual rail of the grate clean too.

I have only two complaints. First, the wood can get pretty dirty after a while and is hard to clean. Second, this isn't the best price I've seen for this brush. I've seen it at almost half price at the local [store]. ...

Anyhow, if you're buying a grill (like I did from Amazon) then definitely get yourself a good brush like this to keep it clean. If you're still using steel wool to clean the grill, you'll like this much better. Don't use it to clean the dog...long story.

Hope this helps and good luck with your purchase!
