I can't speak for the newest models, but there are different models. The Silver or Economy, a Gold which now I think is called premium and the master touch. The economy had one handle in the front of the bowl, a three spoke triangle and a frisbee style ash pan. The premium or gold had two handles, a 6 spoke triangle, lid thermo and the upgraded ash catcher (the bucket). The Master touch deleted a handle to include the lid bail assembly along with the other premium upgrades. I think the Gold and Premium now include the upgraded Gourmet  grates...

My DE OTG has 2 bowl handles. I gave my buddy a DD OTS when he bought his house. It had an economy triangle and a single bowl handle.

it's interesting that they would have so many different production lines for different sub catagories.

   My guess is Weber has always wanted to maintain a 22" kettle under a $100 for the begining griller. The fun part is that all economy models can be made into true mastertouch's.

Do master touch grills still have a lid hook?  That's one thing that's fun about adding a bale to a ots. You can use the bale or hang the lid on the bale to get it out of the way.
