BGE news
Heard through the grapevine today that there is about to be a price increase. So if you're on the fence, you might want to pull the trigger.
Also was told that BGE now has a firebox with a gap in it to prevent cracking.

I don't understand what the gap would look like. Does anyone have a photo of one or a diagram.

Weird - got my large egg two weeks ago - no gap in the firebox - one solid piece..... As far as price they're 1100 up here - ridiculously overpriced compared to what you can get one in the US for. Would have driven down to get one but if I buy in the US they won't honour the warranty in Canada..... Sucky eh?
But still think regardless of price, it is one awesome cooker....

Hmmm hard to raise prices right now (unless you work for an Oil Company).
Anyone have one with the Gap I would also like to see what it looks like.

A very strange company. I wonder what the going price for them here is now. I was given a large BGE, so I don't know how much mine cost. |

I guess i lucked out at Christmas when i bought mine for $599. My local dealer had 10 large BGEs they wanted to sell before Christmas.
Of course, now i'm already wanting another one . . .

I think its just the firebox has a 1/8 inch-ish slice down the side as opposed to two separate pieces. This allows for expansion. I wonder what the success rate is. Still on my first firebox...
