Curly Posted August 17, 2007 Report Share Posted August 17, 2007 Re: KK for My own Mine is the Supreme Plus Dark terra blue,charcoal grout. Haven't thought of a name yet( maybe the Karnivore Kooker) arrival date is on or about Aug 24. I think I have a name, let me know what you think---Kobe'---the beef not the basketball player. Hmmm, that would make this a K KK!? Ah-oh, hope you aren't gonna drape that thing in a white cover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greggd Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 I did it!!! As I was reading this thread, it struck me that it would be extremely unlikely to hear of someone selling their KK and replacing it with a Kamado. I wonder if anyone has any stats of the respective "conversions" from one brand to another... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greggd Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 Firemonkey: I voted, and am not surprised at the responses to date. (I am a K owner that wishes to upgrade despite having no problems) However, don't give up your day job to replace Gallup. I don't think that you have the objectivity factor nailed yet.

Firemonkey Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 I remain objective up until the point that I glance out my back window and see my crumbling POSK sitting next to my rock solid KK. Objective or not, I am a realist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think waiting 6-9 mths on a cooker may help to strengthen the bond you have with it. Liken it to carrying a child for 9 months And having a love/hate relationship probably helps with the co-dependence syndrome that so many seem to have with the other tiled-cooker company You may not get the hate part (and that's the crucial part) of the relationship with Dennis...maybe you can shift your co-dependence to another area of your life. Can you live with this choice knowing these facts? If so, you may be cured, or at the very least, well on the road to recovery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tkline01 Posted August 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 Scheduled for delivery Wednesday between 11AM - 3PM!!! Comparison: Mexi-K ---> Paid 50% took almost 10 months to get and it was missing several accessories. KK ---> Will arrive 13 days after I paid in full.

Firemonkey Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 Richard can try and copy every feature and detail he can from the KK, but the bottom line is he will NEVER, EVER be able to come close to that kind of service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
U2PLT Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 Dad's Delivery My K-9 & K-1 were ordered in Oct 2003, they were delivered in Dec 2004. The K-9 had both bands installed wrong. It took me 6 months to get the replacements, and then I had to fill 3 holes in the lid and then drill 3 holes placed perfectly in the top part of the bottom. After I paid for my new OTB Supreme I had mine delivered to my place in 7 days. Richard had 50% of my money for over a year. Dennis is obviously ashless with his system!!!!!!!!

Firemonkey Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 The glaring differences dont stop there, either. Check back in after you cook on your KK for a month or two, and really see what you have been missing! BTW, if anyone in Central Florida wants to see the differences up close and personal, they are welcome to stop by. RJ wont respond to service inquiries, so I figure I will get my moneys worth by showing of fhis handiwork. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point, I've got a K7 and a KK sitting on my porch also if anyone wants to see this difference in person...it ain't no small difference.
