Has anyone tried the cheaper eBay replacement burners? They are SS as well. Seem to be ok for 22$ which is half of the cost of the weber branded ones. Also, do you have to adjust the airflow on the end that has the vent and screw? Thanks

Hi Jeremy. I havent used the burners youve pictured, but considered them as well. The factor that kept me from going that route was, i had just put to rest a 'chinese' grill that had [so called] stainless burners as well, and i would only get two to three years out of them. they would be (for the most part) almost completely rusted through to the point of crumbling. When i started on my Craigs List find 1000, i removed the 18 year old original burners, examined them and found several extra 'pin' holes rusted through. brushed them off with a brass bristle brush, and blew some compressed air through them. they didnt look too bad! remounted them just for sake of test, and they had a nice blue flame all the way round, just a few extra holes. decided to replace them and went Weber. if the replacements will last any where near as long, i dont mind paying the extra $20.
