Weber Grills last FOREVER. They are well made and understandably expensive. I have had my Genesis Gold C for over 20 years and the only thing I had to replace was the cover. The cover is nice, lightweight made of newer materials than the old one. Seems to keep the rain off my grill as well. But...It is not really a fit for my grill. I was recommended a size that was supposed to fit by a customer service agent and I ordered it. And it fits. A bit baggy and so long it scrapes the ground. It just looks sloppy.  If you make a product that is supposed to last, you should also carry accessories for that legacy product.
