There must be a Costco buyer lurking on the forum and soaking up the mini love. Just saw their own version at Costco for $199. Doesn't appear to be as well made as a BGE and the metal components aren't as good, but imitation being the sincerest form of flattery, I assume we'll see more like these.

Did you notice the brand? I know Costco sells the classic Vision in the US, we get the "it just doesn't work" Vision Pro model in Canada.I think Saphire has a tiny model - similar to the mini.Delta B.C. - Whiskey and steak, because no good story ever started with someone having a salad!

That's interesting. I'll have to swing by Costco to see what its like, mainly to see if any of the accessories can be hijacked.#1 LBGE December 2012 • #2 SBGE February 2013 • #3 Mini May 2013A happy BGE family in Houston, TX.

Costco and Trader Joe's probably account for 2/3 of our household spending. Well worth the annual fee, even though we're out of the diaper years.Mamaroneck

The specs say its a little bigger than the mini. 87" cooking area versus 78".

Part of the mystique and controversey surrounding the mini is paying up the $400 to get one.
It puts the battle lines up for some funny arguements about it being a " real egg " or being a rip off.
$199.... That's it... :-\"Seattle, WA -
With this forum being funded and administered by the Mother Ship, I wonder if they mind threads that feature competitive products. If it were my company, I don't think I'd want it.Just sayin '__________________________________________Dripping Springs, Texas.Just west of Austintatious

I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

Still, they tolerate CGW and CGS as active participants here. Maybe it's tacit acknowledgement that they build better multi tier products than the official ones.Mamaroneck
