I received this for a birthday present from my wife.  I buddy advised her of this.  I thought I wanted a Green Egg, but the cost of those were just too much.  I am so happy I got the AutoKamado.  Regulating the heat and controlling it from an app is amazing.  The only add on I purchased was the ceramic heat deflector.  That is flat and able to hold an aluminum pan under it catch the grease.  I cannot express how happy I am with this unit.
