I am looking a little on the cheaper side just to help coax the wife into letting me get one. I had read somewhere the Visions were going for like 499 at Costco, then I looked they 699 so I have no clue what they will be "in season." I'm leaning more towards the Vision either way. And thanks for all the input, I just recently got into Q in the last 4 months. I've built a UDS and purchased a 22.5" OTG and can't seem to stop. Y'all have all been big help!

I know it may be considered a "wannabee" But, I love my Akorn and at the very least it has shown me what a wonderful cooker this style is! So very versatile. Dialing in the Akorn is not that tough after a couple cooks. So, if budget is a concern- as it is for many of us- not a bad bang for the buck IMO.

Love my akorn but I also want a ceramic. Hopefully towards the end of summer. I'm leaning towards the big joe or primo I would go for the egg but I think the green is ugly if they had a Big Black Egg than I would consider it.;)

If you are going to pay $699 might as well get the Kamado Joe Classic. I promise you that you won't be disappointed.

You have to ask your wifes permission to spend $300 to feed your family?
Be a man and buy something. |

I can't speak to the other grills recommended here, but I would also recommend looking at the big steel keg. They are the same size as the Large BGE and come standard with a CI grate, second level SS grate, stand and grill tool for less $. They won't break if you drop them either. I find mine to be very well constructed.

I did not see this extra size, in fact the XL BGE appeared to have much more room.
