I feel the other reviewers rated this incorrectly. This is not the top grate for your food, rather this is for putting the charcoal on in the bottom section. There is no flip-up side option for this, there is no alternate sizing either. It just goes on the bottom of the kettle bowl so you have space for your coals. It is extremely heavy duty, my original grate from 1980 is almost rusted through and I have no need to replace it. But if you do, I'm sure it can last another 20 years.

These are pretty good, but you can make them better by getting two of them. No, I don't get a commission from Weber! This tip is mostly for those who use lump hardwood charcoal, which has a lot of irregular pieces. With a single grate, you lose a lot of small pieces through the grate. But if you get two grates, place them face to face, with the grill bars offset by a half (I hope that made sense) . The effect is a grate with twice as many bars, and much smaller gaps. Problem solved. You still get good airflow, but you get to keep those small pieces where they need to be - in the fire.
