Upper, Lower and Charcoal Grates for Weber Smokey Mountain 18"

These seem to be heavy duty grates for my smoker. They fit perfectly

Not like the original in sturdiness but very adequate

Product had no flaws, it fit the smoker, was easy to clean up.

My OEM grids were a mess after a couple of years of wear and tear and admittedly poor care by me. By mistake I left them uncleaned in the smoker for a couple of month! Even after I cleaned them they had significant rust and baked on deposits.These replacement grids seem of similar quality and construction as the OEMs, but measure about 10% lighter metal. I measured then with my digital calipers.At about 50% of the cost of the OEM replacement grids they seem a very good value.

Although not as heavy gauge as OEM grates, it does get a couple improvements over the original. All three grates fit nicely.1. Both upper AND middle grates include handles.2. No more charcoal escaping through the sides of the charcoal grate! On the original grate I would always get a couple of escapee charcoals on the 2 edges of the grate. Not enough to ruin my day but enough to annoy me. THIS replacement includes a couple more bars to eliminate those holes. Hallelujah!We'll see about durability and value. If it rusts or comes apart in short order then I'll come back and blast it accordingly.$62 for a few grates? I know I'm cheap but it does seem a bit much (I guess that's a different discussion.)So, the improvements and the fit earned a 5 star from me. We'll see how it holds up.

Good- as advertised!

I got these as “used but good condition.” They would be excellent value at regular price. They are sturdily built (lighter the OE, but plenty stout. For what I paid? No way I could less than five stars!!

The new racks are awesome. They fit my smoker and I can now cook comfortably.
