    weber 22 kettle mod . unknown hinge vs weber bail ?

    amazon link shows $99.99 in black for me and $119.99 in SS . "... Fits Weber 22-1/2-inch charcoal kettle grills and other similar kettle grill. ( Do not fit 22" WSM cooker) ..." i didn't know they were different sizes . no biggie , a rotisserie isn't on my radar .

    weber 22 kettle mod . unknown hinge vs weber bail ?

    i just got a brand new premium from amazon last week and it doesn't have the bail , just the hook under the lid . the master touch and above have the bail and the performer has the more vertical bail . i'm strongly leaning towards the bail .

    weber 22 kettle mod . unknown hinge vs weber bail ?

    soooo ... i'm clumsy sometimes , i have a 22 inch premium kettle and i can too easily see me missing the lid hook and the lid falling and bending and loosing it's seal . was looking at the unknown hinge and it looks very solid and durable ... but i think i like the bail better because the lid...

    Difference between Weber kettle and the performer?

    clifish that's what i was expecting . the p vents were a pleasant surprise . mine came from amazon . i guess weber recently decided it saved $ not having to make two different bottoms for the same size kettle .
