    @Gym Try calling this number at bed bath and beyond. Maybe they will help. Considering that your thread is about to become thrashed by people getting on my case for pointing out a pretty reasonable observation. Sorry you had such bad luck.

    What genius told you to buy that at bed bath and beyond? You won’t get any help from bed bath and beyond most likely. That’s a store for freaking bath towels and bed sheets. Why didn’t you get it from walmart or amazon? You wouldn’t have any issues getting a replacement from them. At this point try calling, not emailing blackstone and see what they can do. I dunno if they will do much since you bought it from a 3rd party. I’m not trying to be a jerk. It’s just that a blackstone is a huge outdoor griddle. Buying it at bed bath and beyond is like buying fresh meat off amazon. Sure they sell it, but do you really want to???? Good luck I hope you can get it worked out. Blackstones are a fun addition to the egg.
    Wouldn’t matter, you’re being a judgmental ****.

    Excuse me again, but if you bought it unassembled in a box, then how did it get so damaged, much less bent all to hell? Wasn't it rather difficult to assemble it since it is so badly out of of whack that the holes couldn't have lined up too?

    What the f*ck, dude?  Stores sell sh!t.  Whaddya think the "Beyond" part of "Bed, Bath and BEYOND" means?  You seriously think you have a viable argument with the towels?  None of this is helpful, it's a reputable business and however you think you're not being a jerk, being a jerk definitely crossed your mind.  I'd stick with that first instinct before you rail against someone in your high and mighty faux consumer advocate devil's advocate self-righteousness.

    Chill the f*ck out.

    Like creating multiple fake accounts on a bbq forum to harass people? You would know all about that wouldn’t you FlyOverCountry? Or is it ConwayTwitty? You have so many I forget.

    @TEXASBGE2018 what the hell man? I bought my 36” blackstone at bed bath and beyond and it wasnt bent to hell. Why ridicule this guy and other members here about helping the OP find a solution? You cant hate on a guy and get all defensive when your crap gets called out. 

    go cook a 1/2” steak and I hope it sucks.

    Hate to tell you slick but multiple people have clued me in on your little troll accounts. I’m curious what type of grown freakin man creates multiple accounts on a bbq forum to harass people? Clearly someone whose winning life’s lottery. Sleep well. I’ve got a job to go to tomorrow.

    Where did I say that all blackstones bought at bed bath and beyond are bent up pieces of crap? I simply was saying that wouldn’t be my 1st choice to buy it. Maybe I came off as an ahole but that wasn’t my intention. I gave the guy several suggestions on how to potentially fix his problem. I said call blackstone, call bed bath and beyond. I even gave him the customer returns phone number and wished him luck. I guess if doing that is being an a-hole then I’m an a-hole.  Since so many others on here gave such great advice and all.

     Isn't a man already grown? Pretty sure child =ungrown and man = grown.  No need to say "grown man".

    I would rather light a candle than curse your darkness.

    Hey here is a thought.Maybe don’t tar and feather “short timers” just because they haven’t gotten drunk with you at Butt Blast or whatever eggfest. Attitudes like that are why tons of people have left this place. Some people on here treat this website like it’s a freaking fraternity. The smart old timers on here don’t get caught up in the bull crap. Sometimes I wish I took their lead. So far in my “short tenure” I’ve been treated like crap by a lot of people. Why would you tar and feather someone for pointing out that several people on here like to harass people with fake accounts?

    What you say makes perfect sense.  But if Ron Swanson says it, there must be a reason.  He's Ron Swanson.

    Full disclosure here, I don't have any troll accounts.  I did get thrown off the forum once and borrowed someone's account (conway_twitty) until I got back on, but I'm not FlyOverCountry or any of these other troll accounts that you guys are thinking of.  I have another account but lost the email and pw years ago.  Big_green_nola.  That's it.  Anyone can say I'm this or that account, and I keep them confused, but I'm not those accounts.  I'm honored they think I'm all these trolls that I'm not.

    Your modus operandi, based on your posts, is to quickly judge people you don't know, formulate opinions that, in my estimation, help elevate your sense of worth.  You denigrate people that behave exactly like you do, which tells me you don't think before you post, you don't formulate abstract relationships well, and you are angry at society and you apply a filter that takes little thought but results in a public regurgitation of your self-righteousness.  Boosting your self-worth by calling everyone you impulsively don't like or agree with idiots is pretty common behavior, and clearly has defined you.

    It's astounding how hackneyed this online persona has become, and to see another of you makes me feel sadness in the general human condition.

    Point-in-case: Your defense mechanism has you type: "Clearly someone whose winning life’s lottery. Sleep well. I’ve got a job to go to tomorrow." 

    You should really spend more time learning about people and listening.  Perhaps you're incapable of empathy.  I'm a kind person if you get to know me.  How well can you know someone on a forum like this?  Not that well.  So go out and meet people.  I've had people at my house from the forum who happened to be coming through town, I go to fests, throw my own.  

    Conversely I can be a weapons-grade world-destroyer. I will help people that you will formulate an instant negative stereotypical opinion about because of your internal filters. 

    I feel like I have won life's lottery.  Hope you win it too one day. 

    I have a job, congratulations on yours.  Been at mine for 27 years.

    I feel like our relationship will be fun.   Your pal, nola.
