Weber Premium Grill Cover for Spirit & Spirit II 300 Series, breathable UV- & water-resistant, with Velcro fastener for Attachment, Grill Cover, BBQ Cover - Black (7183)

It's a quandary how to review something that you know is likely double the price because it's the official cover from Weber, and not some less fitted alternative. We bought our new Weber Spirit II EPX-325s GBS BBQ in July - for a few weeks we used my in-laws generic mid-sized BBQ cover. It was fine, but it blew around and it was old and DIDN'T look right on my nice shiny beautiful new barbeque!! So, I had a choice to make. New random brand, usually from China - decent enough, but would be a more generic fit. Or the official cover (this item) that Weber recommend for their 300 series BBQ, but it should also fit some of the larger 200 series e-models. Given dimensions are 106.68CM H X 45.21CM W X 129.54CM D It's pretty expensive. I think it cost me around £95, but at the end of the day it's protecting something far more valuable than that from the elements. I paid near enough £1000 for my BBQ and so I want to make sure it's protected in the best way. On this basis I think the Weber cover that is more fitted will do the best job. So I took the hit on the premium I had to pay. The cover has a reasonable weight to it. Not heavy, but enough to prevent the wind blowing it off. To help with that each side has a large velcro strap, which not only secures the cover to your BBQ more snuggly, but it also gives leeway for the various sizes in the range. The material feels great quality. Rain beads nicely on the top and runs straight off it. The only thing we haven't dealt with yet is the cold. Winter is coming, so I guess we'll see how it holds up - but there's a temptation to move it into the garage anyway by then. The only negatives I'd raise are the straps. They feel a little cheap compared to the quality of the cover. They're fine, but I wouldn't be surprised if they're the first parts to fail. I don't think it's unreasonable to expect better from Weber, and a cover costing nearly £100. Other than that I'm happy with it. I feel more comfortable that the cover will protect the BBQ properly, and I feel that it'll last for years to come. You just need to ask yourself if you're OK with the premium. I was. Others may prefer to opt with the generic version without the Weber brand name.

Easy to fit, well made and keeps water out

At full price this is crazy expensive and I think very hard to justify the price given the amount of alternatives. Discounted it becomes a better option. It looks very smart with the logo and obviously is designed to fit well. It's secure in the wind with the straps done up, doesn't drape on the floor getting all mucky and allows airflow. Waterproofing seems good - water beads off. It's a decent thickness, but I have seen thicker covers. Overall, smart and good quality. If you have a Weber BBQ you will likely want the Weber cover. It will be a test of time as most covers I have end up disintegrating due to UV damage in our south facing garden, so will see how this holds up in a year or two. 4* based on high price unless you can get at a discount.

Worked well

Great cover for Weber Bbq. Holding up well through winter and now summer. Although more expensive than cheaper options this cover is much more durable and isn’t showing fading and wear and tear that others I have previously used did

Item was exactly as ordered

Quite expensive but good quality and fit. Paid extra purchasing a Weber cover in the hope it will last much longer than the cheaper alternatives.

This is well made and fits our Sprit II 320 perfectly. Weber stuff is always pricey, but buy cheap stuff and you’ll get rubbish quality that doesn’t last.

Die Weber Grillabdeckhaube passt perfekt auf meine Spirit 300er Serie und macht einen sehr hochwertigen Eindruck. Das Material ist robust, atmungsaktiv sowie UV- und wasserbeständig, wodurch der Grill super geschützt bleibt. Der Klettverschluss sorgt für sicheren Halt auch bei Wind. Die Handhabung ist einfach und schnell. Insgesamt ein langlebiges Produkt, das den Grill hervorragend vor Wetter und Schmutz schützt sehr empfehlenswert im Alltag.

The Weber cover is fantastic. It has plenty of room, is made from thick, high-quality material, and feels very durable and well made. Thank you!

Es un producto excesivamente caro para lo que es, una funda para barbacoa, aunque también hay que decir, que a tu barbacoa Weber, ninguna otra funda le va a quedar como esta. Adquirí otra funda previamente, en la que las medidas eran las precisas, y quedaba mal, quedaba por así decirlo como lo que es, una simple funda de plástico sobre “algo”; al final compré esta funda, y fue un salto de calidad, se percibe bien el material, aguanta la decoloración, ya que la brbq está en jardín (a excepción del Velcro, que si presenta una decoloración rojiza) y resumiendo, le queda muy bien a la barbacoa. Así que si tienes las brbq en un lugar visible, lo recomendaría encarecidamente
