Weber Performer Cover
« on: September 10, 2019, 03:17:40 PM »
Hello Gratefellas. Need some advise. Recently picked up an early 2010s Performer Deluxe.

Should I go with the standard Weber 7152

The Classic Accessories Ravenna
 

And finally the Classic Accessories Veranda

Any reviews are appreciated. Here north of the border in Canada these are quite pricey, we also don’t appear to be seeing any price reductions.

I've found that Weber covers are cheaper on eBay a lot of times.  Not sure how each vendor would handle CA shipping though.  Best of luck!

I have the Ravenna. Definitely worth it. I use it here in the Catskills for winter coverage. Holds up well.
Heavier then the Weber covers.

Mine has held up very well in all four Indiana seasons.

Ravenna for me, the king kong is also very good as well
Seeking a Black Sequoia I know I know, I'd settle for just the tabbed no leg grill

I have both Kong and Ravenna and they seem about the same as far as durability. Ravennas are usually a toup/olive color and are more stiff like canvas, the kongs are black and have a slick feel kinda like a wetsuit. The kongs also come with bbq tools and are more form fitting where the ravennas use straps and are more loose.

Thanks for the info it helps a lot. I actually use the classic accessories for my patio furniture. We’re going into year 3 and still holding up.

+1 on the King Kong

I just purchased one for my Performer. 

It is considerably heavier than the Weber cover it’s replacing, which had completely disintegrated.  My uncle died two years ago and the Performer sat under the cover on his patio the entire time.  It took on direct sun and Chiberia/Snowmaggedon during that time and I while I must say that the grill is still in grate shape, but the cover is DONE as it literally fell apart in my hands when I was loading the grill into my cousin’s truck.
