Re: Which Weber Q3200 is better?
What color combo suits your home decor ???
I have the cream color, I will suggest that when it gets 'dirty' you can see it and clean up the offending stuff
Now I suggest, because I don't know for a fact, that with the black lid you may not see the 'dirty' stuff on the lid and it will remain, as an ant attractant
You must clean the lid after each use if you want it to remain clean and not become an insect attractant
The lid gets splatters from cooking, this dribbles down when the lid is lifted to check or remove the beautiful food cooked on the 'Q'
A black object absorbs all wavelengths of light and converts them into heat, so the object gets warm.
A white object reflects all wavelengths of light, so the light is not converted into heat and the temperature of the object does not increase noticeably. according to my mate google
So if BOTH units have the insides of the lids the same color there may be no difference

it's a very different world where you can smell but can't see what's happening with your food

Wondering if the black means it loses more heat than the cream?
The black costs a few dollars more but there are fewer of them around so that might be good?

I think the black one would look cleaner for longer (maybe a good or bad thing) but I come from the 60's & 70's and love 2 toned colour schemes
The cream coloured lid does seem to get discoloured after a few Years of cooking but I don't beleive it makes any difference to the actual cooking or heat capabilities etc.
I guess it's just a case or it was offered as an option by Weber and Horse for courses

Ended up with a Q3100.
Couldn't justify the extra for the black version, so it is the standard beige.
Anyone notice that BBQ G has virtually nothing Weber nowadays and Weber Q's are in places like David Jones and Myers?
I guess if you are making a man cave you can pop into DJs, buy a TV, fridge, lounge and Q all in one place.
