Default Does anyone have a big green egg nest like this?

I'm in the market for a large BGE and saw this nest? Anyone ever used a nest like this? It looks a bit more stable than the BGE factory nest.

We have been using the stock one with a modification to the wheels, which has made it more stable. That one is a nice nest though. From BGE?

I don't know who makes the nest but I don't think it is BGE. I'm going to go by the store later this week and I'll let you know.

I just bought a Large BGE, family is holding it for me, it's still in another town where I bought it on sale at sams, haven't been able to coordinate and pick it up. But I've been looking into the customized tables.

The best I've seen for a nest type (not cart) is the one on their Kamado under their own store brand Outdoor Gourmet at Academy Sport.

Just looking at that showroom flooring, I don't think any of those Eggs are very stable, no matter what nest they are in. Red flags!

I recently added Handlers to all 3 of my L's.

I wanted to be able to remove the BGE and roll it on its own if needed, so I kept the nest and wheel assembly together and secured it with these heim joint rods and screw in handles at the frame.

I picked up the setup yesterday afternoon. The nest is very stable and rolls easily. The salesman at the store didn't know who made the nest but he said they got it from a distributor, Paragon Outdoor Living.

I think eventually we will put build an area off the deck with paving stones for BGE. While the BGE is on the deck should there be a grill mat or something under the egg? If so, where can I get a one. Home Depot, Lowes?
