Leship 15 in Grill Grates Replacement for Weber Spirit & Genesis

In this review the Leship 15 in grill grates are judged on fit, build and cooking performance for older Weber Genesis and Spirit models. These cast iron cooking grids aim to replace OEM parts like 7521/7522/7523 and offer a heavy feel plus strong heat retention, so the single biggest reason to buy is their ability to produce professional sear marks while fitting a long list of compatible Weber models. The reviewer found them a solid replacement for side-control Spirit E-200 and S-200 series grills and appreciated the upgrade in appearance and grill performance.

Key Features

• Exact fit for many Weber models: Designed to replace Weber parts 7521, 7522, 7523, 65904 and 65905 and to fit numerous model numbers for Genesis Silver A, Spirit 200 and Spirit 500 series with side controls.
• Heavy cast iron construction: The grates are built from cast iron, which retains heat well and helps develop strong, even sear marks on steaks and burgers.
• Two-piece pack: Each order includes two 15 x 11-1/4 in grates providing a combined coverage of 15 x 22-1/2 in for most replacement needs.
• Durable finish for cooking: The surface is suitable for high-heat cooking and, when seasoned, offers improved nonstick qualities and appealing grill marks.
• Wide model compatibility: Works with many model numbers listed for Spirit E-200, S-200 and E-210 (side control) - useful when original parts are discontinued.

Who It's For

These grates are best for owners of older Weber Genesis Silver A and Spirit 200/500 series grills that use a side control panel and require the standard 15 x 11-1/4 in cooking grids. Grillers who want more pronounced sear marks and better heat retention than thin factory grids will appreciate the cast iron upgrade.

Those who have Spirit 200 series grills with a front control panel, or who need exact OEM no-change parts for newer model variations, should double check measurements and model numbers before ordering; this set is not intended for front-control Spirit 200 variants.

Pros & Cons

• Sturdy cast iron build delivers excellent heat retention and bold sear marks.

• Two-grate package covers a typical cooking area for the specified grills.
• Customers praise the fit and build quality compared with original parts.

Cons

• Cast iron can develop surface rust if not properly seasoned and maintained.
• Not compatible with Spirit 200 series grills that have a front control panel, so careful model checking is required.
