Thought I would drop in and update.... grill is holding up very well for my dad. He keeps it outside and covered. None of the rust issues returned and it's still very solid.
Hey guys,
My neighbor gave me his old grill last year. I had plans on restoring it, but I'm not going to. We will be moving next year and I'm starting to clear out some of my extra grill stuff.
Hoping it will go to a fellow weber enthusiast. The red lid is in great shape, no sun fade...
Just got back from a Home Depot run.
They had some new gas models on the floor. I literally thought they were those cheap "use a year and re-buy" grills....then I saw the Weber badge.
Holy moly, it's getting worse.
Mine doesn't sag at all. I keep a couple bags of charcoal in the cabinet and stuff like my chimney, wood chunks, etc... down there. It's held up to the rain and weather very well. I'm in GA so not much snow at all, but it's been baking in the sun all summer and still hasn't faded or shown signs...
I have this one from Sam's Club and it's been excellent. No drawers, but has doors to keep my stuff dry.

Those grills are very well balanced. When I used to work at Ace Hardware (years ago), when showing the customer these grills to try and sell them one....one of the...
Very cool creation you have made there Dave!
My brother is in the market for a pellet grill. I'm trying to steer him in the direction of this grill. He's very much a novice in regards to charcoal/pellet grills. Would you say this is would be a pretty easy grill to use for someone like that...
I've got one out back I use as a fire pit, just surrounded it with some bricks.
And I've got another one that I use as a planter....worked pretty well this year growing some jalapenos.
