Having used several Kamado smokers, there are definitely pros and cons.

Pros: great size, love the two grills that come with it. Overall good construction. Great price (at least when I bought it.)

Cons: the most annoying thing was airflow control. The bottom slider isn't tight so it seems to leak air. Had to wedge a napkin in to snuff the fire. The top leaked a bit also. Doesn't come with heat deflector.

This may have been bad luck, but my firebox cracked 8 months after I bought it. Fortunately there it was under warranty.

Bottom line, great smoker, but there are better ones.
