Was at HD and ran across these. That's a heck of a price IMO

I have the one with the folding tables. More compact but i think i would prefer the cart

Definitely. Having owned a Weber Performer and a Kamado with folding tables the cart is by far superior. It's sturdier, more spacious to work on and makes moving it around way easier.

The cart is awesome. It makes things much easier. This is a great price and I'd suggest anyone even remotely interested in Kamado cooking to jump on it!

Ya great deal! Awesome just to pick up if someone needed it and especially for someone looking for this type of cooker that may not have one. That is dirt cheap and would even be a good used price :-D

That is an awesome price for most of the time I see them between 275 and 300.

I have the one with the folding sides and love it. I have done overnight cooks on it without any problems. Hold temps with no problem.

One of the best grills I've ever owned. I didn't have The skills to make it smoke. Fun cooker.

Funny you say that, I've often think the same of my bubba keg... BUT I have cooked some amazing slow cooked Q on mine. It required some patience and extra care not to let it get too hot. Nowadays my WSM and Assassin 36 get the call for long cooks.

No matter what I did, it would eventually climb to 350+. Did all the mods, all the different lighting- she just wanted to run hot. Some Brethren have mastered theirs' and do awesome low slow smokes. That's a great price.

They are showing $299 on line. If I could get them to price match, I'd buy one tomorrow.

Which store were these in?

Bummer. I've smoked brisket and butts successfully on mine at 225-250 with no mods.

At that price it's tempting to buy one and keep it in the box until needed.
