Love this igniter system
I finally replaced my 20 year old Weber grill with an updated Performer. My old grill was the same model, but had a 1 gallon gas lighter which was a pain to get refilled with changing regulations. Also, I had left it outside uncovered a few times and it had finally begun to get some rusted areas. The new igniter system uses a battery, which I think will hold up better than the old click/spark system. We love the new copper color and look forward to many more years with this grill. It is great for regular grilling and I’ve learned how to do slower cooking and smoking with hit. There are lots of online videos to guide you on how to do this and Weber is a solid name in the industry.

Home again, and happily so!
Just received and assembled so I haven’t cooked on it yet, but I don’t need to before writing the review because a Weber Kettle was my first grill more than 30 years ago and I can tell from assembling it that the heart and soul are still the same. Product arrived with box in nearly pristine condition, but it probably wouldn’t have mattered because it was packed SO WELL. Now, for assembly, I prepared myself for the usual grind of poor instructions and ill-fitting parts that I’ve grown used to in other grills since I got too “sophisticated” for a kettle. Boy, was I surprised! Assembly was simple, straight forward and I could’ve almost done it without the instructions. Only criticism I have to offer is two open-end wrenches are called for, but no sizes are given in the instructions. How hard would it have been to include the size? I still don’t know because I just chose to go with a pair of pliers instead, which worked fine.I look at this grill and I see all of the simplicity and reliability of the original, with almost all of the improvements I could ask for:Great ash collection systemImproved holder for the lidGreat work surfaceGas start optionBuilt in timerHandy tilt-out bin which I will find a use for, even if I don’t agree with putting charcoal in an open-air container on a grill that will likely be stored outside. I’ll stick with my Kingsford storage bin that is airtight. Additional storage space is always welcome!Improved grate with both hinged doors for adding coals and I LOVE the idea of the new gourmet system. One reviewer called it “stupid” but hey… just because he lacks the skill or imagination to make good use of it, doesn’t make it “stupid”! The same guy talked about “over paying” but again, that’s unrealistic. If you consider how many grills I’ve WORN OUT in the past 30 years and had to replace because they were only offered for a few years and replacement parts were no longer available, while the Kettle is basically still the same and many owners are still using one 20-30 years later, there is NO SUCH THING as “over paying” for this kind of quality.

Loving it!
We used charcoal for years then decided to go to gas for it’s convenience. 6 years and 2 gas grills later we’d had enough. What is it with gas grills now? Both started to rot out within 2 years of purchase. Our first one was rather cheap so I guess I can understand. Our second was not and it still needs a total rebuild (burners and flavor tents) after 2 years of use. We’re in upstate NY so our grilling season is somewhat short, maybe 5 months.Anyhow; Boy what a difference!This grill is VERY well built. I took my time during assembly, inventory & organized parts, drank coffee, whatever. The box is quite heavy. I flipped & slid it into the house, then unpacked the parts inside & carried the pieces for each step of assembly out the back door to the patio. The directions are pictographs with little “alert” notations where they thought they were needed. I’d be sure to pay attention to these little alerts as a couple of them are needed. I think anyone who’s assembled anything could manage this with little frustration. Just take your time and study each step before executing it.After reading a lot of reviews we opted for the “one touch ignition” with the little camp stove propane bottle (not included) feature. Boy are we glad! We didn’t want to have to mess with starter cubes or chimneys. I think it’s well worth the extra $50 for the upgrade.We also love the size of the prep table and the integrated charcoal bin.A note about the charcoal bin; The entire bag of charcoal (bag included) is meant to be put into the bin. The literature says the bin will hold a 30 lb bag. That info would only be accurate if it’s a 30 lb bag of briquettes, NOT lump charcoal.If you’re in the market for a charcoal grill, I HIGHLY recommend the Weber! Super sturdy & well built. My husband was a toolmaker & manufacturing engineer so, if he’s impressed, that’s saying a lot!I won’t get into the debate of gas over charcoal but I will say the flavor improvement was amazing! We didn’t realize how much flavor we’d been missing. We only use natural lump charcoal or natural briquettes when we can find them.

I wanted a Kamado or Green Egg, but after seeing their ridiculous prices, let alone that they are not made in North America, I opted for this Weber and I don’t regret it. This system to start the coal is really amazing. Turn a knob, push a button, wait between 6 to 10 minutes, and when you come back you have nice glowing embers.
