Being that I cannot afford a big layout of cash for a super-smoker right now, I've been looking around at the 22.5 WSM's... really nice units, butt one thing concerns me. The aluminum door/access panel. They seem awfully flimsy for an almost $400.00 smoker.
I stopped at a local hardware on the way home today, and saw one on display where the door was all warped and didn't fit well at all. Is this a common problem with these, or...??? Mind you, this one had not seen any heat yet, and there was already a nasty gap at the top of the door. It could have been a shipping thing, or maybe the trunk monkey that assembled it screwed it up. Anyway, it has me concerned.
Anything I should be aware of?
Also, how accurate/dependable are the stock thermos that come with these buggers? In my past experience with stock units (on other brands), they were crap at best.
Thanks for your thyme!
