ANOTHER NEW CONTENDER:

Enter Dictirdy. Yah, it's a pretty wacky name, but the product is exceptional. Recently showing up on Amazon at 50% off, this has to be the most unbelievable price ($39.59) for an almost perfect set of super heavy, 304 stainless, 9mm grates. They check just about every box. About the only minor negative is that if you are a Chargon user (like me) you have to navigate around a center support. This is identical to the equally nice 9mm grates from Qlimetal, but one place where grates from Dave Santana or an old Summit are perhaps nicer in that...

Josh, the more reviews the better! Other than the center support that gets a little in the way of using my preferred Chargon cleaning tool, I can't see anything to fault in these incredibly priced grates. I will be very interested in what how your comparisons come out.

I probably won't do a review since you covered everything already. I didn't realize you already did a review. Thanks again!

I haven't even opened them up to look at them yet.

I would compare them to a new set of Qulimetal 9mm because that's probably the closest comparison. I have several sets of new unused grates to compare. I can definitely side by side compare them to new sets of 9930s and Dave's also.

The 9930's are probably still superior just from the standpoint of having no center support, which I complain about all the time on these grates. So, I'm actually going to use these and see if and how much that bothers me keeping in mind of course how much they cost.
 
The 9930s are pretty much identical to Dave's which makes sense because Dave modeled his grates off the 9930s. If I mixed them up I wouldn't be able to tell the difference. I like either of those two best because I know and trust the quality of them to last at least several decades and likely beyond my lifetime. I like that they are 3/8 thick which is equivalent to 9.525mm and with the bar being thicker but still the same number of bars per grate means the gaps between bars are smaller. Also as Steve mentioned no center support making them easier to clean especially using a CharGon. I don't mind spending that extra money for either of these two options on my forever restoration grills that I will have for the rest of my life.

I can also say that I have been more than happy to use Qulimetal 9mm and 7mm on my grills that aren't going to be with me forever and I'm pretty confident I will feel similar about these new 9mm SS grates. I have purchased several sets of Qulimetal 9mm on sale for $79 so if these new ones are similar for half the cost that's a great deal and I think a nice option for any grill.

Also curious what you guys think of these Laser Cut 1/4" thick SS grates? I have considered getting a set but the only thing holding me back is the look. I don't think they look bad but I like my vintage restorations to stay pretty much looking original or at least looking like it could have come that way from the factory.

I have to say that I don't like the way they look either, and the price would stop me in my tracks if I did.
