I'm through with this.

Because he's done it. He said it and Paul doesn't post BS on this forum. Give the man a little respect.

Paul, good luck with whatever you decide but let me add what I know to your knowledge bank. The Weber Director of Internet Marketing told me that the Searwood will be released at a later, unnamed, date. A manager of one of the Weber stores in Australia told one of our FB group admins that he...

When I had my rt300 one of the guys on Pellet Fan gave that a positive review. I cut oak hockey pucks and put them on top of the diffuser but they didn’t last long enough.

Jon, I still don't like the outward appearance but I am really excited about what's inside. That big flavorizer bar works. I like the side pellet hopper and new pellet feed system. I like the grease management system and I like the cast Aluminum. I wonder if the lid is insulated. Did you...
