This year, Weber has returned the favor by releasing their Genesis II SE Series grill only available to a few of their select Weber dealers, including Designer Appliances. You won’t find this model at your big box home improvement stores. Uniquely tapered burner tubes provide consistent pressure, including alignment from front to back, which provides a more consistent flame and even heat profile.
Burner holes (also known as “ports”) have been made larger and more extruded. As a result, the new Genesis II burners are more resistant to corrosion and clogging issues that can sometimes plague other grill models and series. If you run out of batteries for the display, you have no quick way to check the temperature of the grill. One underrated move by Weber with the redesign of the Genesis grills was the switch in wheels. Now the grill rolls on four swivel casters, two of which lock to keep your grill in place. Now you can move your grill around more easily while also locking it into place for grilling.
It also comes with a 12,000 BTUs per hour side burner, perfect for warming sauces or cooking side dishes. The Genesis gas grills support both in Liquid Propane or Natural Gas fuel format. Just make sure the ultimate SKU you select matches the fuel type of your home. Upgraded burner tubes that allow even dispersal of heat across the cooking surface. This is courtesy of the reversible and tapered nature of the tubes, which correct issues with uneven heating that Weber grills have sometimes suffered from previously. While versatility may not be the first thing that comes to mind when you think of gas grills, the new Genesis line is built with the new CRAFTED Outdoor Collection in mind.

While the Spirit line is full of modern features, Weber has stepped up their game with the new Genesis models. Weber also made the warming rack expandable leading to a maximum cooking area of 787 square inches. The warming rack itself is over 100 square inches larger than the previous model, making it much more useful for cooking more food.
On the other side of the size spectrum, the new Genesis series features grills with four and six burners for those who like to do some serious grilling. You can likely see the difference between these two sets of images—the old burners became more easily clogged, as well as suffering from uneven temperatures from the front of the grill to the back. The most common issue was a hotter front of the grill than the back as a result of the gas pressure not reaching the back of the grill. The new Genesis II burners solve both issues with a tapered design and larger, protruded openings to address these concerns with aplomb.

The new E2i electronic ignition system is more durable and more reliable compared to previous incarnations. We believe that the E2i system is the most superior ignition system Weber has ever created. Below is an up-close picture taken after we dismantled one of the Weber II grills to its most portable bbq basic components. Additionally, replacement of the LP tank is now far easier than ever before in the new Genesis II series, marking a significant improvement to convenience and ease of use over previous models. If you have a large party the extra space and cooking power will be handy.
