Man, I am sure it's just me, but not liking them. I have done so much work fixing up my old Performer over the years and now need a new bowl. Finally rusted through! No big deal as it comes with my abuse. I have replaced several parts over the years but when the bowl let loose in a few spots I figured I would go the my local box store and do some snooping on the new Performers. Haven't looks at them in years. Man, I just don't like a few of the things I see. The lid handle feels VERY cheesy now that it is a cheap bolt on part. Seems like the handle is so tall (probably because they had to add a heat shield to it or whatever that is). Seems the geometry feels all wrong. They did something to the lid bail too. Seems it is a pain to flip up the lid and store. Weird.
Still love all my Webers, but just dropped some bucks on a new bowl from eparts. All they have is black, so won't match my lime green Crate-And-Barrel edition, but that's fine by me!
It was that dang slow-n-sear! Got so hot she finally belched out the last bit of rust she had left over! Love it! Went ahead and bought a Craycort cast iron grate as well. Gonna be fun!
Wish someone would have told me they were changing all that stuff up!
