Have worked this unit hard for 2 years now and it has done well. No issues with assembly and came together in about a hour after unpacking. Has done everything expected, slider grates are great for indirect heat cooking after you sear. Issue to watch is that it does not seal well and heat control can be a issue. Once going you could close all 3 dampers and due to leaks it will not slow down. Also ash try is very shallow and it spills over while shoveling out and causes a floor mess.
