I paid $80 for a new cover, some grill utensils, NIB  sweeps, charcoal, and 4 small tanks of propane; the performer came free with all that lol at least that's how I'd like to think of it given the retail value of those things.

I haven't had a chance to cleaner her up yet but there is minimal build up and a few grease spots on the outside bowl. There is a small chip in the lid too but no big deal.

I didn't notice until I put it together that one of the ash sweep fins is not flush against the bowl, so I'm glad it came with a new set. Hopefully I can get them off because the two grills I've picked up I haven't been able to remove the sweep assembly due to rust, even after using PB Blaster for days. Any advice?

I also plan to sell my black performer (same vent code), which needed a new cover anyways, and probably break even. I'll also move the zav handle on that to this one when after I sell it. That is the only way my wife is letting me keep this one haha. Though it hasn't hit me until now that the black one was my first <3 and I'm sad at the thought of letting it go...

Can't complain for 80 bucks. As @WNC  says... keep the black as well.

Don't let your first one go !

Keep your first grill  and  keep your wife also. Just warn her that you don't want to have to chose between her and the grill. I'm sure she'll understand.

Congrats!!!  I just got the twin of yours today for $75.  As I was heading back home I found a WSM 18" that was for sale for about 3 weeks asking $150 and I offered him $75 and must have caught him at the right time because he said come on by and it was in my truck 20 minutes later. It was a good Weber day.
These green Crate and Barrel Performers really look much better in person then in the pictures.

Nice!! I see some GBS inserts came with it too? That's a good deal. And I completely agree they look better in person.

Yes it did come with a cast iron sear insert but I'm not a big fan of the cast iron grates. Would rather have your cover and other goodies.
