Getting a new spring green mastertouch

[DonoBBQ]

Any agents in Canada? ? LOL

Everyone who sees my colored kettles for the first time always asks if I painted them. Many think that kettles only come in black. Nice spring green BTW!

very nice.. one day, I too will have one...not sure on the color though. I like the green, and really like the ivory...decisions, decisions.........

I talked to the guy at Johnstone's and he told me they contacted weber and said they wanted some different colors than the big box stores in the states and weber said if you agree to buy x amount of units (don't remember the number he said) they would produce them so apparently they agreed and now they get all the cool colors. At least that's what I was told

I just don't understand Weber's marketing.  Do they not think that people in the US would not be interested in colors other than black for this grill or not offer some of the accessories here that they have in other countries?

Seriously, like the weber pizza attachment they get to have over in the UK!

Just speculation but do you think kettle heads are in the minority? They look at their sales and overall grill sales in the USA and they see much more gas than charcoal? Maybe they are too focused on lowering manufacturing costs and bringing a cost effective product to the consumer. I'll say this. If I went shopping for a new kettle and had to pay a little more for a special color I'd do it without question. That's why I cruise CL a lot, that and I prefer the welded non taco handle kettles. I think they would have a supply issue if the stores started stocking the nice new ivory and spring green.

Very psyched for you.  How many American dollars are they going for nowadays if you don't mind me asking?

I have contacted Weber about the same color question. But it falls on deaf ears.. I guess they think
The American market is satuated and the introductions of a new color
Is not going to make us buy it and is not worth the productions cost.. Let's face it
Who is going to spend money on a product that almost the same as what you
Already have.?? I guess never heard of an IPHONE!!!

They are $299 Canadian so I think it was around $230 us

In BC, he would have paid 12% tax on it.  So, add an extra $36 to $299.99 CAD.

Using the following link to get an approximation:

And, it's $260 USD (rounded up).
