Genesis II now at Ace Hardware
« on: November 28, 2016, 03:29:17 PM »
Got the ad in the mail for Ace Hardware.  Haven't seen one in store in person but I will go check it out tomorrow out of curiosity.  "Exclusive at Ace for the holidays".  Item numbers don't show up online yet...

I wonder if we will see older Genny's for 25% the price like we did last model change of the Q's and kettles?
I am not a collector, but I do have a small collection.

Thanks for the heads up. I'd really like to see one in person. I hope it's sturdier than it looks in the pics.

This is the first I have seen the Genesis II.  Those wheels would look nice on a newer mastertouch/performer.
Wanted: Burgundy 18"

I certainly feels cheap, I say that without ever seeing it in person.  I don't like the open bottom.

If they are coloring the Gassers with it, then certainly they can with the kettles.

Nows to hoping they revert the ash bucket back to the old style, I would hate to be an old man with arthritis trying to take those off.

Found an Ace that had one on display.  I've had a Genesis 1000 (still have one), silver A, B, and a s-320 but I do like the way this one looks and feels.  Now to see how it cooks...  ok let's not get crazy I can't buy one.

Note the larger catch pan, rubber stoppers on the lid, new burner shape, ignitor, etc...

Just wait until the Genesis II LX line is released! All stainless or black lid has enclosed cart. Lid height is equal to the old Genesis. Mid hinge also on the genesis II New ingitor system lights each burner like a stove push to light! Leds in the knobs. Its really BA! The Genesis II at ace now have the lid height of the spirit series.
