mpaek25 said:I'm just curious if anyone else has noticed this. I recently bought the stacker and my base came asymmetrically a little bent, shown below. I contacted Smokeware and Matt from their sales department said that it is designed that way to allow the top grate to set level. He assures me that every stacker has this bend. Anyone else notice this on theirs and is this normal like he said?

Didn't notice it on mine, but when you torque it down it will all straighten out.
Try installing it and see what you think. If you have an issue installed, I would call again.A bison’s level of aggressiveness, both physical and passive, is legendary. - NPS -
The only food I have seen in photos of this grate system is wings. I would love to see some heavier items to see how well this really works.

Thought about buying it but ehh. Price and appearance of quality seem suspect.
I have a smokeware table that's nice but the quality of the build leaves a bit to be desired imo-FATC1TY

Hey everyone! As some of you know, I work for Smokeware. The bend that has been mentioned it meant to be there. It is to keep the top grate level. It is a specific 8 degree lip to ensure the grill grate stays level. Matt put a lot of thought into this one. Also, over the weekend I cooked two pork butts - the one on top was 2.7 lbs and the bottom one was almost 4.9 lbs. Hope this helps with any questions! Thanks!Jacksonville, Florida - Large BGE & Large Yellow Lab...Just the three of us!

@Ozzie_Isaac - We are going to start making a larger grill grate for those using the stacker on the XL. Even more room!Jacksonville, Florida - Large BGE & Large Yellow Lab...Just the three of us!

@pgprescott - Good eye....It is a prototype that Matt has been working on for sometime now. It is hard to make at an affordable price but, we will get there. It's basically a chip and drip pan. Two pans - bottom pan filled with chips, top pan used as a drip pan. Check out the YouTube video Matt made. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jUuublcocPc
Hopefully we can get it out in 2017.Jacksonville, Florida - Large BGE & Large Yellow Lab...Just the three of us! -

Hey fwiw, I think you're overlooking an equally good selling point which is the smoking wood is separate from the coal, which means whatever doesn't get used in the LS cook can be removed for a non-smoke cook if desired. It's a common issue to have latent wood chips or chunks that are not desireable for the subsequent cook. Great idea you have there. Happy new year! -
Hey!!! @Carlyn2828 , we just met today! We were doing a "fire inspection". You guys were awesome and thanks for showing us around the smokeware shop. If you guys ever get hurt stop by the station and we will fix you up. Thanks again for everything!

The table is fine, except the casters are lackluster and the table doesn't firmly stay together despite having the bolts all tightened down. If attempted to move even slightly you can hear it squeak pretty bad and shift from square. It shouldn't fall apart, and had plenty of room on it. Heck of a lot nicer than the wood tables you see around.
But hey- I guess the point is, it's only 650 so it should be cheap quality, and if we are at it, smokeware shouldn't care- they didn't make it, they just sell it with their name on it. That should atleast comfort you a bit.-FATC1TY

Carolina Q said:Why not rotate the whole thing 180° so the pivot point is up by the handle? That way, you can swivel it completely out of the way. And drip even more crud on your deck or patio.
What's the difference between this one and the CGW thing people had so many complaints about? Hopefully, this one's better.
This is one gadget I know I'll never buy. I've never needed to cook more than one grid full at a time! Or had two grills going at the same time for that matter. Come to think of it, except for folks on these boards, I don't even know anyone who has two or more grills or a second cooking level on their one grill.

I can see where this build can get expensive.. That's ALOT of welding and CNC cutting on what I assume is stainless steel. Nice concept, I like it. Not sure what price point you guys are going after, but I would honestly pay around $65-75 for it.XL bge, Mini max & 36 BS Griddle. -
