People often ask, "what is the difference between the Weber Spirit II and the Weber Genesis II?"

It's much easier to see the differences when the two BBQs are side by side, so here is a photo of the two BBQs in our showroom.  Yep, in the background you can see some really old Weber BBQs and even some custom made ones.  We are Weber nuts and this is why people come back to us for all their Weber needs.

As you can see, the Weber Genesis is considerably bigger.  Scroll down to see the main differences.

Both of these BBQs are built to the usual standard that you'd expect from a Weber BBQ, so these will not fall apart after 5 years.   With care, these will last you in excess of 20 years.
