Shipping was prompt and assembly was straight forward. I've had my grill almost eight weeks and I love it. I have four other grills and smokers I will be selling. I've cooked beef three times, pork twice and chicken three times. Everything tastes great and was tender except for an economy beef roast and it tasted great was wasn't as tender as I would have liked. Well worth the money and the thermal blanket works great and looks good also.
