Nice!
It's the iconic symbol for the backyard. It's family/friends, food and fun. What more do you need to feel everything [is] going to be all right. As long as we can still have a BBQ in our backyard, the world seems a bit of a better place. At least for that moment. -reillyranch

Glad to see you back,
Seeking a Black Sequoia I know I know, I'd settle for just the tabbed no leg grill

Welcome back, the place is not the same without you here.

Thank you everyone. I have missed "hanging out" here. @Bigmac , I bet you paid a bit more, I saw one while I was in Germany at a store and if I remember correctly it was somewhere around 400 euro, I was possitive this person forgot a " 1 " in front of the 35.  @Jon , Thanks again bud, LOVIN the Jr., that sucker gets HOT!!!  Cooked some boneless pork loin steaks last night.

Congratulations @varekai I use one every day at the dock.  She's my workhorse.  I think it's the most underappreciated kettle in the Weber lineup.  You get the metal table that is super easy to wipe clean and also gives you workspace.  The table folds down to save space.  It is super stable and it's also easy to move around.   I love mine.

@captjoe06 , I cooked on it last night, was a pleasure! It's light and stable to move but feels solid at the same time, this grill will be in the rotation A LOT!  I didn't measure yet, but just looking at it last night and some of the other grills in my stock, it looked like it was taller? Will find out when I head out to work this morning.

They come up occasionally on CL around here for short money.  If there are members out there looking for a great dedicated workhorse, i wouldn't sleep on this model.  Yes they are taller than a regular kettle.
