Yeah, even the narrower grate is a bit of a pain
to install in the firebox but it's not that hard
to do with a little practice. I wonder how many
phone calls Charbroil gets because they provide
two 16" wide grates and one 15" wide one without
mentioning in the instructions why one is narrower ?

I wonder if they'd sell you a narrower firebox
grate cheap enough if you called them?
