I got this unit to give some flexibility with cold smoking and also to reduce the amount of times I needed to add wood chips during a 12-14 hour smoke. I am satisfied with the unit BUT the mounting isn't the best. I have legs on my 40" smokers so this wont use the feet and sit flush on the ground. I was losing so much smoke off the seams I decided to change the installation. I drilled two pilot holes at the top of the unity (after measuring the inside of the smoker itself) I ran two short bolts from the smoker into the wood box and secured it that way. I still used the "tent stake" hook but that wasnt doing a thing, I then applied 3M heat resistant dbl sided tape to the edges of the smoker box. I have now a great seal and I am not losing smoke all over the place that never got into my chamber to add those wonderful nitrates to meat I was cooking. I highly recommend you to this very simple fix to add stability and quality.
