Most Weber stuff is good, but pick a different cover Most of the Weber equipment is excellent (if pricey), but their vinyl covers are not very good. The material does not breathe, and while the latest versions have apparently eliminated the mesh air circulation vents which also allowed rain to pour onto the grill, they now presumably will have issues with condensation in hot weather… I have tried two of these Weber covers (with vents), and in addition to leaking, both have cracked after a couple of season’s exposure to the California sun…
Vents = terrible design I’ve had my S-470 for about 2 weeks without a cover and when it rains, water channels into the cabinet and into the drip pan where it mixes with the grease and overflows into the cabinet and anything in there. I’ve had to clean up disgusting messes twice already. This cover has vents in the top that allow water to come right in and allows this to happen even when it is covered. Why in the world they wouldn’t put the vents on the upper sides is beyond me, but you do not want this cover…
Weber Summit Gas Grill S470 I’ve had this grill for about a month and a half now and have used it quite a bit. Everything works like it should and I’m very happy with it. Of course, I’ve had to adjust the way I cook things. This grill’s interior temperature gets very hot (550+F without searer, 700+ F with searer) using high on the controls; so I’ve learned to turn things down while cooking. The rotissary works really well and the infarred burner provided even cooking. Indirect cooking is really good as you preheat…
