Anyone know Dimensions for Weber's 26" Kettle Box ?

[Pete Weber]

Hi Members,
I’m trying to buy one of these Kettles to ship to Australia ( they haven’t been available here for years and the Aus Rep can’t/ won’t import them )
Because freight is based on the Cubic Measurements of the box rather than the weight, I need to obtain them for a shipping quote.
I’ve tried emailing Weber & Amazon, but they just give the dimensions of the product as assembled rather than the box that it comes in. Does anybody have access to one in a box, or can they recommend a BBQ Shop over there that might have one in stock and be willing to measure one ( worth the sale to them ?)
Last time I did this was in 2014 when I bought a 22” WSM and I went through Firecraft in PA, but unfortunately, they seem to have closed up shop since then.
Any help would be gratefully received.
Regards & Happy BBQ’ing.

Typical “Big Orange” store data! No help really! Just like the bulk of their staff!

Hey Guys,
Thanks to all of you for your assistance.
John Burns, seeing that you are connected to Weber, I wonder if I could ask you for the same details on 1 other product ( not meaning to be given a mile and trying to take an inch ).
I’ve just been looking at the Performer Deluxe 22” Charcoal Grill.
I wouldn’t mind getting one of them as well.
Depending on if it collapses down in to some sort of Flat Pack, I guess.
Any further assistance would be gratefully received.
Either way, I owe you guys a Solid, for your assistance on the 26”er.
Thanks again !
Regards,

Peter

The performer is advertised more widely I believe.

Hey Pete!

The boxed dimensions for the Performer Deluxe are as follows. I'm afraid it does not fold down into a flat pack and is a rather large box.

H: 20.3"
W: 38.8"
D: 27.3"
Wt: 99.0 lbs.
Cu.Ft.: 12.3

Let me know if you have any other questions!

The 26” and performer are fantastic grills, I hope you can swing them both.

 

[AndyK]

The performer is the best charcoal grill I’ve owned so I bought 2 of them.

John, I am one of many that appreciate your contribution here.
Hey is there any chance we might see a 26” performer?
I bet that they would sell pretty good.
I know I’d buy at least one.
