Golly Gee there are some fine cookers on this thread. I love my WSM and the mini that a whole bunch of us made. Then Weber got smart and copied the idea.

I got mine a year ago and have not looked back. Easy to use, weber quality and makes great food...

Have been enjoying rotisserie cooking on the 14.5.

Very Nice!

My wife and I downsized to a new (for us) home about a year ago today. I have noticed since day one that our next-door neighbor has a covered WSM that I have never seen her use. I have a PBC, but thought I might offer to buy the WSM for extra space and for experimentation. What do you think would be a fair price? It looks to be an 18 inch model.

Thanks!

If it is well taken care of I'd offer $175 and consider paying up to $200. If it looks like it has't been loved I'd offer no more than $150 maybe less depending on the condition.

I actually ran into my neighbor this evening while walking the dog. I asked her about the WSM and she said it is her sister's smoker and she confirmed it is rarely used. I told her I might be interested in purchasing it if her sister is up for it. Will let you know what happens. Thanks for your feedback on what to offer!

Rotisserie Tri-Tip on the 14.5.

Hung a small brisket in the 14.5.

I love this little cooker!

I'd start at $100 and go up if necessary. Of all of the WSMs I have acquired over the years, I have paid $100 or more for two of them. Gotten WSMs for $10, $20, $50, $60, $75, $80.

Dmakkk · 09-15-2016, 08:06 AM

I second this. It seems like the value of these is driven by sentiment and not demand. I paid $120 for my last one that was brand new in box. I would shoot for between $50 and $100.

Here's my "arsenal". 22 WSM and a 22 OTS Kettle. You can see the kettle gets pressed into service during smokes as a work surface.

I spent too many years with my modified ECB trying to get it to run right. Constant fiddlin'. But I sure learned a lot. When I finally got the WSM it was a revelation. During my last couple of cooks it has rocked along all day at 280 with no adjustments required, save for an occasional tap on the legs to knock down some ash.

Dmakkk · 09-15-2016, 12:36 PM

Set it and forget it...

troy64 · 09-26-2016, 12:05 PM

Definitely worth every cent and the modifications double that!
