    JK- with two LBGE I would go for a smaller cooker-SBGE or MM.  Plenty of threads here on the pro's and con's for each.  
    And just to add more confusion-many here have branched out into the world of stick-burners.  As long as you can get away with another outdoor cooker of any fashion-go with what you want.

    Minimax was the best idea when I needed a new egg for my large. Got it when they launched and never looked back. I can use the small crap in my lump bags. Quick to light and works great for smaller cooks

    Depends on your cooking style and needs.

    My third, after two larges, was a small.  I'm not a huge fan of the MM, and its design vs the small.

    depends on how many you regularly cook for but my small gets 65% of my cooks.

    I'm going the other way.  I'm selling my stickburner, UDS, kettles etc and getting another egg.

    I have a mini and a minimax. The minimax gets my vote.

    I really want to go the @cazzy route and get a really nice cabinet, but don't see myself going through enough product to justify it just yet. I have a Large, Medium and Small. MD and SM get 90% of the work these days. Large was my first.
