66797 & 66033 Flavorizer Bars 17-In Replacement for Weber Genesis II

In this review the WEMEIKIT 17-in flavorizer bars are examined for owners of Weber Genesis II 400 and Genesis II LX 400 grills (2017 and newer). The bottom line: these seven stainless steel bars are a practical replacement set that restores the sizzling and smoke capture lost when old bars corrode or warp, and they are particularly useful for cooks who want the grill to perform like new without replacing major components. Installation is straightforward and the bars are sized to match the listed Genesis II models.

Key Features

• Direct fit: Designed to match Genesis II 400 and Genesis II LX 400 series grills so owners can replace worn bars quickly without modification.
• Complete pack: Seven bars per pack provide a full replacement set for grills that use a bank of 7 flavorizer bars, avoiding partial coverage gaps.
• Stainless construction: Made from heavier barbecue-grade stainless steel to resist rust and maintain heat transfer better than thin SS sheets.
• Solid dimensions: Each bar measures 17 in long, 2-3/8 in wide and 2-1/8 in high, so users can check fit by comparing length and width to originals.
• Improved grilling flavor: The bars are designed with two half-moon openings on each side to encourage instant sizzling of drips and add smoky flavor to food.

Who It's For

This replacement set is best for owners of Weber Genesis II E-410, S-410, E-415, S-415, E-435, S-435 and the LX E-440/S-440 models from 2017 onward who need to restore even heat distribution and the vaporizing action that flavors grilled food. It suits regular backyard grillers who want durable stainless parts and a simple swap to bring a grill back to near-factory performance.

Those who should look elsewhere include owners of older Genesis I series or models with different control or side-mount layouts, since this set is incompatible with older side-mount control configurations. Also, buyers seeking cast or porcelain-coated factory originals for aesthetic match may prefer OEM parts designed specifically by the grill maker.
