After a few years of use, the original rack on my Gold C grill was rusty and unusable. This is the exact replacement and fits like the original, making the grill that much more usuable again.

I use my Weber Genesis Gold C gas grill year-round. Due to the climate where I live, there is a fair amount of condensation inside my grill. After four years, about 30% of the warming rack has rusted and scaled off. I recently bought replacement stainless grates, flavorizer bars, an igniter, and warming rack. The burner tubes appear to have a lot of life left in them, so I didn't buy parts to replace them. I'm using the original stainless grates and bars until they fail to maximize their life; but their replacements are ready.

I installed the igniter and warming rack, and since they are just like the original parts they work fine. I just wish Weber would offer stainless warming racks.

In addition to the warming rack reviewed here, that fits in the four slots in the back, my grill came with a swinging rack that fits in the hood. I haven't been able to find a replacement for that part. I used some Stove Bright high temperature paint to touch up spots where the aluminum casting showed through. For less than $100, I brought my grill back to nearly new condition.

Warming racks are useful if you are a griller. When you are trying to grill 24 chicken breasts and 10 of them are catching fire, it is nice to have a place to put them before they turn into charcoal. The worst problem with warming racks is that they are usually stuck to the "bonnet" where they swing wildly when you open the hood, or they rust so much that you are afraid to put food in or on them. Not so with the Weber. This rack sits on the bottom of the grill in two little slots, and really doesn't have a problem with rust. And you can remove it in the middle of grilling in case the height cramps your style. This rack is one you can actually use...

You know when I first got my grill, I put away the warming rack for fear of rust, and lost it. I bought this replacement, and have loved it ever since. Before, I would just turn off the back burner, and move the food there. The rack is better, because it keeps you with more grill surface for active grilling. So, if you've lost your warming rack, or if yours did evenutally rust (it is probably inevitable, although mine has not yet after a year) try this replacement set. I'm happy with mine.

Amazon service and Weber quality. Replaced a few cosmetic items to get my grill back to like-new condition. Product was exactly as promised and a perfect fit in my 15 year old Weber grill. My grill is up for another 15 years of great grilling!

I abandoned my Weber grill in 2004 due to a move and deployments with the Army. I decided a few weeks ago to refurbish it, as I had found it to be a great grill that was consistent in results. The grill was full of flaked paint, spiders, and crud... But the biggest problem I had was identifying what type of grill and what parts...guidelines and dimensions listed are not always right... ultimately the Weber site provided a step-step guide to determining correct parts. This wire rack is perfect, though its part number (3631) wasn't listed in the weber tool. I know they rust, but so what... delivery was fast and though price was about same as delivery charge, i couldn't find the rack locally, so i'm a happy camper.

Everything was easy and straight foward. Product arrived when promised in excellent condition. "Life should only be this easy"

This item was too long for our grill. We requested an alternative unit. The vendor offered to get the correct item, but has yet to ship the right item or send return instructions for the one we received.

The warming rack is useful only on a shelf above a gas grill. Unfortunately, neither a photograph nor an explanation was supplied by Amazon, rendering the product useless for my charcoal grill.
