    Weber 70th Anniversary Kettle Collection

    In 1952, our founder George Stephen introduced a charcoal kettle grill that started a cooking revolution. This limited-edition Collection celebrates Weber's innovative spirit.


    Now these are pretty slick looking! Guessing the price will be crazy but I love the colors and some of the details on them.

    I wouldn’t be surprised if they ask $375-$400

      Exchange rate is around $1.35 us to the pound........so even more than shown.

      Uncle Bob I looked up the exchange rate right away too and saw it was closer to $500. I was reserving a final verdict given that it’s overseas and may be a little more expensive just due to that, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s that much when it gets released here. That’s quite a bill for a dressed up kettle that offers no cooking advantage over their standard models.

      yeah they have VAT built into the price and their tax is higher so it will be a little less, but still pricey. You can look up the cost of a normal weber to compare

    Cool, but I don't love the colors.

      It’s cool, but, I myself, would never be able to justify to myself purchasing a new kettle because of a color or some cool emblem on it. I do kind of dig that rock and roll blue though.

        I totally dig Limited Edition stuff. Almost as much as Beanie Babies (can't get enough of them!) and Barney!!

          There's a really interesting documentary on Amazon Prime about beanie babies... I watched that and the Lula ro or whatever ones. Humans are fascinating... also I really kinda like the crappy green one, though the wife will say no.

        Oh yeah baby! I can see myself buying one of those. My wife will roll her eyes, but I can live with that. Either the blue or green.

          Got a feed today on FB. They are delaying the celebration. Reason, what is happening in Europe. No opinion, just stating the facts.

          Oh, I do have one but....

            Two nostrils, two ear ducts, one mouth, better get my drill out.
            Looking at that lemon drop one.

              I just wish I had bought a few of their Simpson's grills and stashed them away.

                  Oh man..... I so don't need another Weber kettle, but if they aren't too overpriced might end up with the yellow ones. I do wish they were real wood handles, but they do look neato.

                      Yeah, not sure about those colors. The teal one -- I mean "Rock and Roll Blue" might grow on me, though.

                      I like the showcase of prior Kettles near the bottom. This is the one Weber should have brought back!

                        I’m in the market for a new kettle and really like that yellow. I may hold off a couple months and see what the price is on these before I pull the trigger.

                          Well, I'm of the firm belief that like the Model T, kettles are black!
