I dig it.  A swing up table would be cool too.

Can see they cut down the pipes up top and tray on the bottom rack to shorten it.

Maybe a tall griller and no space for a performer table? I am 6'4" and I don't like using the standard kettle because I have back problems and that grill is way too low for me. This is the reason I have a Performer and One Touch Platinum which have a much higher working height. If I would not have room for a Performer I might pick up on that idea.

Built for the person who lives in a same apartment or a out house size place. There is a need for small compact cookers, not everyone has a big deck or back yard. Nicely done very clean.

I also did not know that Weber ever made a One-Touch Platinum aka "short" performer with an 18.5" kettle.  This showed up on FB market place in my area. Not that I want it but I found it interesting.

You know if you made the frame telescoping somehow (so you could raise it to normal grill height and lower when not in use) and added flip up side tables like mentioned it would be a pretty sweet rig.  You could have all of the convenience of a full size Performer that could fold down into an approximately 2 ft by 2 ft by 2 ft foot print.  Perfect for throwing it in the back of a truck for camping or to simply tuck into a corner of a garage under a shelf.

It doesn't look like they have made it any better than the original, so why? [emoji23] is this performer common in the states? Sorry I'm new to the forum and uk based so still finding my way around
