The side tables are very useful as it makes it much easier to manage a number of different items which you have to cook at different times or for different amounts of time and you can have your plates, sauces for flavouring etc near at hand. However they are expensive items.

Adding side tables to our Weber Baby Q gives us needed space for ingredient dishes, etc. They fold flat into the BBQ and the lid closes on top of them, so they don't stick out. For what they charge for a Weber, the side tables should be a standard addition IMO. A great addition that we should have added earlier.

Purchased these ( comes as a pair )to add to an existing Baby Q which is now mounted on a caravan slide out compartment. Needed some bench space and didn't want to set up a table each time. Well made, easy to fit, and folds under the lid when not in use. Worked a treat on recent trip away.
