Can you post a pic of where it came from? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Moisture accumulation under the tiles is likely what caused them to come off. Like i said tho, grout tech has advanced quite a bit over the years. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I’d say you got good service from that guy. If you do decide on a new one, between the advancements of grout materials, and getting it covered full time, my guess is that it’ll be your last one. I have one from 2012, not exposed to the elements, that still looks as good as my new one. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

So, did yours live outside, uncovered? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

How’s the other one doing? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I have to admit, as I get older, I do notice the weight of the grate on the 32, but I don’t think it’s enough to be a deterrent. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m not quite sure where you’re going with some of this, but the first thing I’ll say is that you don’t need a deflector to prevent flareups when cooking hot, particularly if you’re using the top grate. I only get them when cooking really hot, 750° ish, and I want a flareup, like cooking steaks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You’ve pretty much covered everything. I have a 19”, a 23”, and a 32”, and they all have their virtues. I got the 32” most recently, just when the 38’s were released. I really thought the 32” would be more than I’d ever need, but once I got it, I sometimes wish for the 38”. I’ll say this, the grates on the 32” are fairly heavy, and I understand that the grates on the 38”/42” are multi pieced, which could be an advantage. In your situation, I’d have way more fun with two 32’s, given the extra flexibility of two completely separate cookers. The big grills are designed such that they can cook like a small one given the basket splitters, which I believe are standard on the 38” and 42”. Either way, you’re going to really enjoy your cooker (s), whatever you decide. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I believe all dimensions are on the website. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

The 38” is still relatively new as far as there’s not been much posted about it. All KK’s are excellent, so there’s no reason to be concerned about any issues. The lids of all KK’s are spring assist, so no difference in felt lifting weight. I also understand that there’s not a lot of weight difference between the 38” and the 42”. My usual thought would be go as big as you care to, not that the 38” isn’t big. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just a little more info, mine originally came with the single gasket. The next evolution was the additional gasket on the horizontal of the lip. Finally, the one piece version of the two gaskets, which is what i have now. Previous to all this, i believe the gasket was a fiber material. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I’m pretty sure the physical design of the lid/body seal hasn’t changed, and this is the newest design. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Maybe an opportunity for someone? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No, i turn off all but one valve, then close the last one about half. I could probably close it more, but I’m liking not having to check if it’s still lit. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I bought a higher volume air pump and haven’t had further issues. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Not a Kramer, it’s a Kenichi Shiraki honyaki. Many havent heard of him, but he’s a true master, the teacher of some of the current big dogs. I saw where the knife Bob Kramer made for Anthony Bourdain auctioned for over 200k. That’s a bit out of my price range![emoji38] Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Almost done!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Doing Christmas a bit differently this year. Garlic, thyme, rosemary and oregano mixed in the butter, I cut the bones off and reattached on the spinalis side, unfortunately I have to take it to medium, but otherwise I’m looking forward to it! Merry Christmas everyone!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
