    I had a large nest sitting around so I tried and it fits well in it. I have a medium which isn't assembled that I'll try too. Looks like it will to with the measurements I took.
     
    My back hurts just looking at that photo, dayam that'd be low to the ground!
     
    What's the diameter of the MiniMax compared to the Small?  It looks like an ideal size for cooking on a 14" wok....

    The Mini Max cooking diameter is the same as the small.

    It is a tad heavy but not bad. The handles make it easy to carry.

    @badinfluence - I would be curious if the firebox of the MM would fit the small since the grid is the same size.  I have one of those smalls that have trouble getting really hot.  I thought that the MM firebox might help.  Since you have both, I thought you would be the guy to ask.  Would please see if it would fit?  Thanks!

    I just noticed your signature.  Do you really have all of those?  Awesome.

    I feel a whole lot more like I do now than I did when I got here.

    Most excellent.


    I am pretty sure i'll have mine by next week.  I have been told about the numbers being shipped out west (en route to CA) and there will be a stop in AZ;  like I said, I already paid for mine and am pretty excited to get 'the Call'.


    Come on BGE, get those out here!  You made us wait this long, put them out there at a higher price and now the anticipation is nerve-wracking!

    BGE hasn't even updated their website to register the MM for the warranty, I emailed them earlier today to let them know.
