" ... After burning it in, I ordered a heat gasket designed for smokers and applied it to the seal of the lid and the seal of the door, it took less than five minutes and cost about $12 on amazon, it sealed everything perfectly. ... "

" ... I did order this one during a Gold Box deal so I snagged this one on the low end. ... -Assembly - I was able to assemble the whole thing in about 15 minutes, the most difficult part probably being the legs ... Also, one of the catches for the bottom latches isn't straight so it sometimes takes me a few tries to secure the bottom ... I also applied to two additional areas: Under the lid where it mates to the rim of the middle section and to the edge of the underside of the top vent that sits directly on the lid. ... -The built in thermometer shouldn't be trusted, but this is true for pretty much all bi-metal thermometers ...

Yes, I had to put a little bit of work into it with some additional cost, but even with all of that, I'm still well below the monetary cost of the competition. ... "
