At the risk of sounding like a grumpy old man: I don't like it.

They've made it a pain to search for replacement parts, and even if you can find them, they've removed the specs section from the part description.

I'm sure I'll find more, but that's just my first impression.

You’re not alone.  The only thing positive I’ve noticed so far is that out of stock items state such now, instead of just dimming the add to cart icon.  I’m sure we’ll get used to it[emoji1696]

Obviously looking for a Glen Blue (who isn’t?😂).

Looking for anything Happy Cooker, including any re-branded as Montgomery Ward.  I’ve amassed a nice collection, but I’m missing a few still.  Let me know if you can help a fella out🤞

this grumpy old man sort of disagrees, you can go right to the schematics of your registered grills and order parts, pretty cool, your account home page has all info easily visible, replacement parts page is about the same layout. schematics page isn't any less difficult to maneuver, maybe I'm so old that I pick my battles based on ease of winning !!
Seeking a Black Sequoia I know I know, I'd settle for just the tabbed no leg grill

Just saw it for the first time today.  I agree with @JEBIV it's really nice to have all your grills pop up on the screen with quick links to schematics and parts lists.  I like it.

Yeah, but you had links to schematics under your grills on the old site, too. And I still haven’t figured out where to find schematics for a grill that’s not on my page - Weber seems to think my SSP is a gen 2 Performer.

It seems that the site is still under construction. There is still some weirdness - keep scrolling and loading more on the charcoal grills page, and you start seeing duplicates without information from the top of the list.

I'll withdraw my previous complaints, at least until the site is fully implemented.
