Unit was easy to assemble and perform initial start-up. Seems sturdy and well made. Only defect i could find is the same I read about online. The various holes and threaded holes that make up the leg assembly dont all line up. At least 2 screws wouldnt have fit if I didnt own a tap/die set that allowed me to fix the issue. Apart from that, it seems like a great piece of cooking equipment. Oh and although there are many aftermarket choices available online, a grease strainer should be included with a minimum of 1 foil grease box liner.
