Struggled to decide whether to get an XL or L for a couple months, decided just to go for it. 
My son really makes it all worth it. He's 20 months old and already wants to help.

I love my xl you'll be happy! Welcome to the forum :-)“There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body.”

So wish I had that much space. This Sunday will be another day I will regret going L and not XL
Just bought an Egg? Here is what you get to look forward to now:
Plate Setter, FlameBoss 200, Spider, PSWOO-CI, Additional Rig Shelf for dome cooking, Thermapen, iGrill2, Cast Iron, Blackstone, Cooking Accessories for the Blackstone, Cover for the Egg and the Blackstone, shopping for Rub like a fine wine or IPA, and a new fascination with lump and what brand is the best-all to be debated every Friday Night.

Congratulations on the XL. You know the old adage, the bigger the better. That's a fine looking little helper you have there as well.

Congrats on the acquisition. Any egg is a good egg to have. Clearly you have more need for capacity than I do....which is why they make some many sizes. Enjoy it....as I know you and the family will.Ellijay GA with a Medium & MiniMax
