The forum is my glue. It keeps me green. It's always teaching me something new. The warranty is a huge issue though. That can easily sway a person's decision on what kamado grill to buy. I just kind of find it funny that Big Green Egg has updated their salt and pepper shakers but in the 13 years I've been here Big Green Egg corporate and dealers still point fingers at one another for warranty work. Why hasn't this been addressed or at the very least cleaned up and simplified? This doesn't fall on any single person. This is a Big Green Egg corporation issue. I want my family, friends, and neighbors rocking Big Green Eggs. One of my best friends just sold his pellet grill for a red kamado this week. One of the main selling points was the ship to door warranty. 

I was lucky in the past to have an excellent BGE dealer fairly close by. I've also been lucky, because of all the Eggfests I have attended, to know people at my BGE distribution center, Paragon Distribution in Dallas, so replacement parts were never an issue and always replaced in a few weeks. 
My local Dealer closed during Covid and my last BGE replacement part took several visits and several months with Ace Hardware. Everything you said above is sooooo true, but someone still dinged you with "dislike" instead of providing a reason they disliked what you said. 
Bottom line...Getting service after the sale should not be so difficult. But it's similar to posting on this forum and "seldom" ever getting help from anyone affiliated with BGE. And if and when they do, it's basically anonymous as their user names does not show them as a BGE employee.

The Haribo bears are too hard imo

Just get the sugar-free instead. Try a bag and report back. 

He said the bears were too hard, he didn't say he was backed up.

L & S was one of our favorite comedy shows back THEN when we needed a brief relief from our stressful lives (jobs). You know...30 minutes here...30 minutes there...

Score! I am not in the market. I did go to their website and see no such sale. Maybe you got the last deal!  Let us know how you like it.  Are you upgrading or is this your first vacuum sealer?

discount applied when you check out...

UPDATE:  customer service at BGE was no help, told me there was nothing they could do, I had to go through the warranty process with Ace Hardware.

And some people complain about Kamado Joe's policy of manufacture shipping replacement parts direct to your front door...lol

My next one will be red. 

No worries-you have such a bourbon connection and collection that the colour (nod) is of no matter.  See ya here on the red side.

Smoked up some Sonoran style dogs.Bacon wrapped all beef Nathan Frank's. A little bit of mayonnaise, fresh homemade pico and guacamole on a steamed buns from the anova oven. We have ice on the ground right now in Northeast Texas. So it sure was quiet outside when I was cooking.
