Wow! I've only read the rumors about the upcoming new MT with a hinged lid on another forum. And, there it is! Most likely, it will be available in Europe 1st!
Ok. So here is what I dont like. They have the vent at the back of the kettle, near the hinge. So, if you cook 2 zone, ( I do 99% of the time) you have your "cool zone" under the vent right? So you have your coal in the front of the grill. Now your reaching across the heat to get to your 2nd zone. Sent from my SM-G950U using Weber Kettle Club mobile app
Is that a heat deflector that I see in the cutaway picture? Sent from my SM-G960U using Weber Kettle Club mobile app
