    Yes, that's my dealer, Capital Appliance et BBQ, bbqing.com

    That's a nice system, I've seen it in their showroom. It is actually not bad of a deal...

    :-O LBGE, frig & kegerator :-bd add a small hand wash station/sink. Is it $800 with it as pictured minus the BGE of course or is that just for the metal frame work? $800 as pictured minus the egg would be a great price.

    The fine print says:
    Stone, countertop & Appliances not included ( Appliances available to purchase)

    Unless I'm missing something, after stripping off the appliances, egg, countertop and stone facing, all that's left are the framing studs left in last photo, $800 for that? No way. I don't see any stainless panels.

    @Canugghead‌ didn't see the "fine print" viewing it on my phone (& didn't look too hard either). So its $800 for tubing frame and some mig welds? =))

    @NPHuskerFL , that's my understanding, hence my post title "$800 framing studs?"

    Looks to be aluminum studs. What a bargain. ;)

    Material for the framing using pictured materials would run the average Joe around $150-$250 + welds. That is unless you could weld it yourself. Higher if in T304 SS square stock.

    Maybe @allieash123‌ could make this design epic with some wood putty filler. :-?

    @NPHuskerFL how did I miss that one, thanks for the link and the laugh!  The putty filler reminds me of my rookie mistake - filling before staining  :\">

    Description is not super clear but it says it includes the bar top which, if I recall properly, is made of quartz. The framing for the fridge was arround 200$. Not clear if the cabinet door is included but that's another 300$. I did not notice that the side panels are not included but if that's what I think it is, I still think that it is a decent deal.

    I could build those steel frames all day with eyes closed, 20g studs 3-5/8"x 8' are $3.50 each, get a box of framing truss head metal stud screws, and no welding needed.
