Hi-

Have an opportunity to scoop up a good deal on Marketplace. The seller really doesn't know what they have and continuing to ask questions just isn't making the sale any easier. It's 2 hours away btw so I'm hoping to know what I'm buying in advance of the long drive.

Can anyone tell if this is a Premium or Master Touch from these 3 pics? TIA

    Premium. Master touch has black handles, bigger wheels and a rubber thing on the top vent handle

    Premium.

    Different wheels, no rubber cap on top damper handle, ash catcher pot isn’t black, lighter duty grate.

  3. Awesome. They’re advertising it as a Master Touch which I’m looking for due to the extra height. Thanks for saving me a trip!

    My Master Touch came with the charcoal baskets, and grill grate with the sides that flip. That looks like a Master Touch that they stuck a basic grate on, and kept the baskets.

    It’s a Premium. The Mastertouch, in addition to the black handles, also has a black colored bottom wire rack.

    I have the exact same model and she is going on 20 years old now. 
    One-Touch Premium, a little older production but far better quality than you get now.

      If that tag “100” is the price, that grill is worth every penny in that condition.  I would take that grill in a heartbeat over a master touch built this
    morning.

    not a premium but still a really great grill!! just the bells and whistles is the only difference. cooks the same just don’t pay that premium price for the one below. also go to your local place and see how much they are. it may be better to pay a few more dollars, depending on how much he’s selling it for and get a shiny brand new one. nothing like s shiny new kettle!

    Premium. Master touch has the place to rest the lid.

    This is a premium. I have the same model from 2014.

    Note the 2 side handles on the bowl. And the position of the thermometer relative to the top vents. This thermometer placement is better than most, as the therm will not be directly over the fire in an indirect setup.

    This will be better made than a modern master touch, and the only real difference is the height and the cooking grate.
