This item clearly states in the description, and on the product packaging, that it fits on the Genesis Silver. It doesn't. As other reviewers have noted, it's too short.

The body of the basket itself is about 23" long. The short wire extensions that would mount to the grill lid's bracket make the total length 24 1/4"

If the inside measurement of the interior of your lid at these brackets is longer than that, it won't mount. Mine needed to be more like 25" or 25 1/4"

As another reviewer stated, these wire extensions are easily bent to make the basket fit. They're just steel wire, albeit 1/8" thick, bent a bit beyond 90 degrees. I clamped each end in a bench vise and bent it out to 140 degrees or so. Now the total length is about 25" and it fits perfectly. If you're not interested in a custom mod, don't order this.

Now that I have it, I realize that I've never really known what to do with it. Buns and rolls tend to get both grease-splattered and dried out up there. Not big enough or shaped right to keep most grilled foods on it after cooking. In retrospect, I would probably just throw away the stock basket and not replace it. Guess I'll have to be creative and find a good use for it.

I am an idiot for not reading the reviews before buying this product. But, it's really BS that it does not fit the Genesis Silver. Change the frickin' description! I realize that I could manually bend the ends to force it to fit and perhaps I will eventually (as the cost to return it is almost the same as the refund I would get. But, that is not why you choose to purchase a product. With all of these reviews saying the same thing, it is really unfortunate that the description is not modified to accurately describe the product and which grills it will fit.

Good product. I bought the wrong one -got a 2002 Genesis Gold C. Thought it would work but it does not. The version that I need is a tiny bit longer and the only place I have found to order it is by calling Weber -they don't even have it on their site.

Honest reviews on Weber 7514 Warm-Up Basket

You will need to buy the #99248 direct from Weber unless it shows up on Amazon. The 7514 is about 1" too short. Also if you want the small flat upper rack order the #7513 or #80633 otherwise you will have the same problem......

Had to return this one. It was too short to fit and I did not try to bend it to fit. Figured that once I bent it, it was mine whether it fit or not. Decided to return it as I am of the opinion that if something is sold as a replacement part it ought to be right without having to make any modifications. Grill works fine without it, so I will just grill without it! Can't say I miss it.
