When I started to assemble it, several pieces were bent so bad they would not fit together.  First time I burned some charcoal in it all of the paint blistered and peeled off of the bottom of the grill - and that was will the charcoal grate two notches above the bottom.  Works okay for grilling, but not suited for smoking which is ironic since it is in the grill name. Leaks everywhere. The charcoal grate is so flimsy it has bent and warped so the charcoal all rolls to the center. I'm researching buying a replacement for it. I saw the grill as being a good buy - inexpensive - but, it is true that you get what you pay for.
