Weber 26 inch kettle cover?

[ColonialDawg]

Can anyone recommend a good cover for the 26 inch kettle? I know Weber makes one for $40 but I am hoping to find one cheaper. It's a head scratcher that Weber includes a cover with the WSM but not the kettle.

I actually checked into that one and it won’t fit. The Weber 26 inch kettle is 32 inches in diameter.

I bought covers at a Grocery Outlet store for 5.99. They work fine.

I just called Weber and asked why they don’t include a cover with their grills like they do with the WSM? I have never purchased a grill or smoker and not had the cover included.

Well, I wasn’t blown away by their customer service. In fact, let’s just say that Weber customer service is crap. The guy basically blew me off and was a complete jerk. May be the last Weber product I buy.

Hey brother, the 26 is a pretty serious investment, play the $40 dollars. I have one, it's excellent quality - you won't regret it. Merry Christmas - Tim

I've bought a lot of grills over the years that have come and gone. I cannot recall ever having the cover included. $40 is not bad for a quality cover that should last for a few years.

That’s what I ended up doing.
