Weber 7436 Hinged Cooking Grate For 22-Inch Charcoal Grills

Its us a Weber product. Heavy duty, great finish. As usual the fit is perfect. Love the hinges. makes adding charcoal so much easier. I have owned this grill for years and have to replace some if the working parts every couple of years but this grill gets a workout. Used year round

I was very impressed with how the Weber grate was packaged for shipping. The box was sealed with packaging tape and then the box itself was secured with plastic strapping to ensure the box would not split open during transit. The grate is a Weber and it was purchased to replace the grate we did not like that came with our Weber grill. Very well made and is absolutely perfect for our needs.

Does the job it is meant to do. I like the hinged parts to add charcoal as needed. It is lighter weight than the grill with the removable center, which I like. I don't have a need for the accessory piece and always was frustrated by it falling out when the grill was removed. This model works better for me.

This was a replacement for an older grate. On the first day I got this grate I had it hanging on the side of the grill while I prepped the coals, like normal. However, when I bumped the grate and it fell the 2 or so feet to the ground, one of the handles came flying off. Looks nice, but it is incredibly fragile.

Why do they rust ? This is my 3rd replacement grate for my grill. Kudos and Compliments to Weber for the quality of their product even though I also ordered replacement ash/air vent covers for they too rusted after several years. But why does the grate rust so fast?
