Great little grill/smoker. Surprisingly capable for its size. Super skimpy on fuel, heats very quickly and holds a steady temperature once dialed in. Smoked a brisket flat for 12 hours and had plenty of fuel left over for plank salmon the next day. Eliminates the hesitancy of firing up a bigger smoker when you’re only cooking for a few. Combine all that with a great customer service experience and you’re left with nothing more to like. This little guy rocks!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I own one for 4 years now, and it's ideal. For Dutch standards it easily serves four. The dimensions are so smart. Whole chicken: fits. Two sizeable sea breams: fits. It's just the larger rib racks that need to be portioned and smoked sideways. The frame puts it high enough to operate by slightly bending over, and since mine is placed on a roof terrace accessed via a hatch, it's also low enough to be operated from within the hatch (half open) on a rainy low&slow cook. Light enough to be hoisted up 5 stairs. Heats up in no time. The only feature caveat is the absence of a weather proof vent. But I fixed that with a improv add on from the local hardware store. Recommended it to a colleague who then fell in love with the Classic II instead :-)

Bought this two months ago and have used around 4kg of charcoal (1/2 a large bag of charcoal) already. I light the unit using 4 tiki candles on a stick below the combustion chamber (I remove the lower grate so I can get direct flame onto the briquettes). So far it has worked well! Love the taste you get off of this unit and it cooks pizzas better than my gas bbq. It loses one star for performance due to the cast iron stand handles. If the handles were bent up so the Center of gravity was more balanced while carrying the unit it would receive five stars. With the handles set below Center of gravity it feels top heavy, and a bit tippy if you’re not watching!

I went through complete he’ll try to get one of these grills . I will not bore you all with those details but trust getting one of these is not the easiest thing in the world. Retailers lie about having them to get you to commit to buying then you wait weeks and weeks while they hunt down and get it to there facility then you wait for them to send to you . I love the grill but didn’t get the one I really wanted . Part of this I suppose is my fault but these grills are not advertised in enough detail explains the variables between the series 1,2,and 3 . I have the 1 series and it cooks well but I was hoping for some of the features that apparently are exclusive to series 2&3. I could have boxed it back and sent it back before building a fire 8n it but I was discussed with what I had already gone through to get the grill and I wasn’t going through it again or I’d have done with out . The grills are like tanks and they do there job. For long cooks I did purchase the Ultra Q Guru and it’s never been a set it and forget grill that worked any better .
