For those that have assembled the large, XL or XXL Eggs, how much do you think the top weighs?

Looks like total weight on these models run from 205-270 pounds total so I'm guessing the lid alone is 30-50 pounds? Don't need a precise answer, best guess responses welcome.

Thanks

Might be a little more but probably not too much. I just looked at my kj classic. The lid is about 1/3 of the total height. Based on the shape though I'm guessing its somewhat less than that percent of the weight --maybe 1/4 of the total of the main unit. You'd have to back out the weight of the stuff inside -- firebox, ring, grate and cast iron charcoal plate first. Maybe 40 lbs for that? In your range for the large, probably a bit more for the big ones
