What are the differences between a OK joe vertical roaster and a Bandura.

I picked up a OK joe vertical roaster and am wondering what the differences between it and a Bandura. I have only seen pictures of Banduras.

depends on when they were built.. OLD OK Joes were built with the same design as bandera, but built a little heavier. I think the firebox was flat instead of domed.

The new ones are more like the smoke king deluxe by brinkman. Same grade steel, similar designs. I think ok joe may even be a charbroil product now(unverified).

It has only 4 shelf spots in cooking chamber and 2 in the fire box the cooking grates are all 2 piece shelfs.
