Off Topic / If You Worked For Weber...
Last post by bgilbert44 - January 21, 2025, 12:48:49 PMHi everyone, hope you're all doing well!
I have a few questions I would like to propose to everyone on the forum, as I feel this could create some really interesting and productive discussion.
Within the next several months, as we all know, Weber's top brass is changing over. With a chance for Weber to do some cool stuff as a result of the new ownership/merger, I am planning on writing and sending a proposal essay of potential changes and improvements that Weber could make to their various product lines. I did this once before several years ago, and though I never received a response back, I did notice a few ideas I wrote down were used, coincidentally or not, primarily in the new Weber Summit Gas Grill redesign of 2024.
In any case, I will be posting this series of questions both here and elsewhere to try and gauge ideas from the most ardent of Weber supporters in an effort to really see what the people want. My questions are as follows...
1. If YOU worked for Weber, what changes would you make, both to the various product lines, and to the company as a whole?
2. What do you like and dislike about some of Weber's current products?
3. Which products would you discontinue (if any) and which would you bring back (if any)?
4. If you could add any brand new products or grills to Weber's current offerings, what would you pitch?
5. If there was only ONE thing you could change right now as your top priority, what would it be?
You do not have to answer ALL of these, however, if you could at least respond to a few, that would help greatly. The most popular/best responses to this will likely be included in said essay/proposal, trying to give full credit to their original authors where I can as I don't want to take credit for everyone else's ideas. That being said, I hope you all can use this as an opportunity to brainstorm and really think about ways to make our favorite grill company better. I'm excited to see what y'all come up with! Thanks so much for responding and have a blessed day!

Last post by ASpitzer - January 21, 2025, 05:26:08 AMI guess I was one of the three. I noticed a couple of times yesterday the site was unavailable. Sad all the photos are gone. I miss all the people that used to post a lot. Hopefully things will pick back up when the weather improves for more outside activities including cooking on the grill.

Last post by M.N.Tolmachoff - January 19, 2025, 12:21:59 AMI've got a 88 "K" SJS with a wacky K stamp. Is this normal for the 88's? Or, do I have something special?
