    Honestly I just can't see why anyone would buy it. 2 XLs has more capacity.
    A steer?

    At $5000, I would rather pay a little extra and get a 32" Komodo Kamado and I could pick the color tiles.  The 32" KK is well over 800 lbs.  No need to replace the Gasket and one more thing, to open the Top Lid on the KK is a lot easier than the XXL.

    If your looking for a tempurpedic they had them at the Atlanta home show a month or 2 ago all beds half off. They travel around to all the big home shows and had the $5000 dual adjustable bed for $2500. They were all sold I plan on going the first morning next show.

    Sorry doc. Didn't mean to hijack the thread.
    I had my mind made up on the sleep number till I laid on it. Felt like an air mattress. Now it's between the temperpedic and sealy's comparable foam mattress. Same price basically same warranty.

    @Jeremiah‌ we have the Sealy. It is awesome. I'd highly recommend it. We've had ours for 5 years. It feels just like it did when it was new.

    In that range for a grill, get the Komodo Kamado's Big Bad 32.

    It is worth the extra money if you are looking for a grill in that size-range.

    I saw in one of their promo pics that an adult human can fit in a XXL. I haven't cooked human in quite some time but it's nice to know you can.

    It's a bit expensive. Currently $100/lb at Walmart (blue light special).
    Isn't the "blue light special" a K-Mart thang?

    And a $100/lb and the average human >100 lbs, that's bit pricey.
    How much does just the backstrap go for?  I think if I'm going to roast homo sapiens, I would want just the tenderloin.

    sealy and tempurpedic have merged as of last fall.  that being said I have a tempurpedic cloud and wouldn't live with out it.  Now is the time of year they are closing out old models for this years models.  Often times when that happens if you find the right retailer you can pick one up for significant savings.  The prices are set by the manufacturer so typical retail is the same at every store in the market but during closeouts they authorize the biggest discounts.

    We bought the Costco version of the foam bed. With adjustable frame $2300 for a king. Really two real big twins. Excellent.
