Amazon.com Review

What exactly are Flavorizer bars, you ask? They're a key feature of Weber's gas grills. By placing these long-lasting stainless-steel bars under your cooking grate, just above the heat source, you can impart mouthwatering flavor to meats. Their juices vaporize and turn into smoke when they drip onto the specially angled heated bars, so you won't lose a lick of cooking flavor. --Rhonda Langdon

5.0 out of 5 stars MUCH better than the porcelain bars.!, October 9, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Weber 9816 Stainless Steel Flavorizer Bars (Lawn & Patio)

My porcelain flavor bars rusted through each year. After replacing them yearly (although under the warranty so at no cost), I finally decided to forego the headaches each year and purchase these stainless steel bars. I've used them for a few years now and they are GREAT!

While this product is excellent it took me a long time to decide whether to purchase it. In the specifications, the length is listed twice as being 25-inches. This is incorrect.
The actual length is 22.5-inches, the length required for my Genesis Silver C Grill. I took the chance that the specs were wrong ... and I was right.

3.0 out of 5 stars Stainless Steel will Still rust out! Just takes longer..., May 16, 2007

Please be warned, fellow Weber grill-heads. These Stainless bars are 5 times better than those horrible porcelain enameled steel ones, but they WILL rust, warp and crumble...I guarantee it. My original SS bars on my Weber Gold B lasted into the 5th season before all of a sudden they got all warped and began to collapse. Upon inspection I realized that they were corroded so badly they literally crumbled in my hands.

If you want a better solution, check this out: There is a metal fabricator guy in Burlingame California who makes these bars out of the same stainless steel, only about 30% thicker and heavier. And for the same price delivered as what these factory Weber bars will cost you. I expect to get 7 or 8 seasons out of these thicker bars for the same cost and I grill 2-3 times a week on average almost all year round.

Grill on....
