The design of The Good-One is so much better, though. I would suspect the Tejax 2430 to have a hot spot, right in the center. Its firebox is not as convenient, capable of being used as a grill, or lends itself well to using charcoal, as well as wood, for fuel. Temperature in the smoking chamber is controlled by the amount of oxygen allowed to the fire, like the WSM. The Good-One has a damper, between the firebox and smoke chamber, and a return path to the firebox - much better, IMO. But, that's why they still make Chevy's and Fords!
