I see several Craigslist scores on here and I've been waiting my turn. Well, I think it finally happened! It's a 18.5 and they were asking $175 for it but I got it for $75. It had everything including the cover. I already replaced the door with the Cajun Bandit, installed a Tel-Tru in the dome, and gasket kit.

I've cooked on it three times so far and it rocks like a champ!

So what do you think? How'd i do?

i like that door, my 18 has virtually no smoke/heat loss from its door, it does suffer some from the lid though. this morning i spent about an hour tweeking the door on my 22, it was all over the place when given a close inspection, ive got it real close all the way around now but its far from perfect. probably going to have get one of those nice ones like you got.

The CL posting was for $175. Come to find out that they were having a yard sale and it was the second day with no interest in it. I called and offered $75 and they said if I came right then it was mine. Within 30 min we were on our way home.
