What Customers Are Saying
The product offers bright illumination and automatic on/off functionality when opening and closing the grill lid. However, many users report issues with water resistance, unreliable operation, and poor build quality, including melting or warping of the light housing. While some had a positive experience, the majority of reviews indicate the product is prone to failure and not well-suited for outdoor use.

Would Not RecommendI spent endless hours looking for the right grill!! We love to grill in the off season. (I don't think there's an off season in south Georgia always hot here!!) So I've had many grill lights over the years, this one looked promising. It was May, so I didn't put it on yet. I asked the wife to put it away. Well the off season came. I asked the wife to get it for me, well that didn't go so good. We looked, we argued, we looked again, argued again.. The off season came and went. We never found it. I...

Fell apart
Would Not RecommendThe screw that holds the light portion to the handle portion just fell out and between the cracks in my porch. Now the handle is coming apart. Just got my grill yesterday. The manual doesn't mention what size screws to use for each hole either...

Only worked for a few weeks!
Would Not RecommendWe love our Weber grill and thought this would be a great addition. After only a few uses the light would not shut off killing the batteries each time. I take pride in covering my grill each night and dont grill in wet weather. Replaced the batteries several times to no avail. Very surprised thought I would receive a high quality product. Even worse cant cook my food in the dark.

Extremely Poor Design
Would Not RecommendI received my new Genesis II BBQ last week, and would you know it, the Grill Light will not turn off. The batteries are dead since the light will not turn off. I have read today about this problem and I am amazed that a great company like Weber continues to sell this garbage. What the heck?

Weber grill lights are not weatherproof
Would Not RecommendWe bought these and they stopped working after the first rain. They need to be redesigned to keep out water. We had another set for a few years, but the grill was mostly sheltered. They worked well for a few years. We have since moved the grill and it is not sheltered from rain.

Life expectancy too short for price
Would Not RecommendThe light when first installed worked great, it did what it was meant to do. The issue is how long they last. 1 year after I buy it just stops working. Seriously are we to buy one every year? If you are going to make a product for outdoors you need to make it durable for outdoors we are not grilling in the house.

not water tight - stays on constantly
Would Not RecommendI bought a Weber E-410 last year and figured I will try one of these lights. I really like the idea of turning on and off with the opening of the lid. Thinking I have 4 burners, I might get 2 if this works out. Well the light seemed too good to be true. I have the Weber cover for the grill that i am OCD about cleaning and covering. I have the same batteries in it for 3 days now and the light has never gone out yet.

Handle light, horrible
Would Not RecommendPurchased this product a few months ago, of course used it at night and worked great. Winter came and I hardly bbq, so my Genesis 330 stayed under the brand new cover I purchased at the same time as the light. Here's spring!!! We bbq'ed yesterday (3/9/20) and the light does not work! I changed the batteries, light does not work. I changed batteries AGAIN and to no avail, it DOES NOT WORK!!!! I believe I got four uses out of it. Horrible for a small product that cost that much money and not wo...
