Has anyone mentioned or wondered aloud why this grill is being referred to as an Original Kettle Premium when aside from apparently lacking the GBS and warming rack it has all the features of a new Mastertouch? Lid bail, what look like 8 inch wheels and the larger triangle. Just found it curious.

Well, it's a Limited Edition Original Kettle Premium, which sounds better than a Cut-Rate Missing Accessories Master-Touch.

[1ROW]

Yeah, I suppose it does sound better.

Yes, they neglected to introduce the Retro Edition Bar-B-Kettle or whatever, complete with rusty triangle, bent legs, stuck/bent daisy wheels, and pockmarks. So "strange" they won't compete with eBay! Yeah, I'm DONE also.

Even if the new red grill DID come with the warming rack, baskets and GBS, there would still be someone bitching about it (taco handle, wheels, vent position etc.) Can't we just be happy that classic red is back!?


HOLY GRAILS: 1960s Glen Blue 22 aka The Imperial, Brown Go Anywhere grill.

Nope.   It does not matter what they come out with, someone will always complain.  They could have redone a Glen Blue perfectly and some people would still be complaining that the metal is too thin or it shouldn't have a one touch cleaning system.  Some people are only happy when they are complaining. 

I have no intention to buy one of these, but I don't want to ruin for it those that are, by bad mouthing it.  Nor do I want to piss off Weber so they say forget it and not try it again with a yellow.

Offering a contrary opinion is not only "complaining", but an indication the person is "only happy when...complaining"?! 

I doubt any remark here will "ruin it" for anyone who buys one.

Some like it. Some don't. BFD.

I'm buying one, even if I don't like the ugly wheels & taco handle. Gives me an excuse to customize

I think it looks great and I have no issues with the taco handle. I know that there is no Weber totally made in USA anymore.  But, this one is a bridge too far for me, as it is being made completely out of the States.  But, I do not begrudge anyone who purchases one.   I hope those who purchase them enjoy them thoroughly....grill on.

In the original ad it did say it had the GBS grate but not the warming rack.
