alimac23 Posted April 13, 2018 Report Posted April 13, 2018 Hey all, as a few of you would know, I’ve been waiting to purchase a KK for a couple of years now, well the exiting time is nearly here and I was always set on a 23 ultimate. Taking to the wife today about the purchase and we were originally planning on getting a 23 ultimate and a pizza oven, but we’ve now decided to ditch the oven and just get a 32 big bad instead I’m 8 weeks away from being able to pull the trigger, I cannot wait already for the day it arrives in Perth!! A question for Dennis, I really like the dark terra blue tile but can only see two on the web store at present, do you have more in stock that you can send pictures of?

Pequod Posted April 13, 2018 Report Posted April 13, 2018 First, excellent choice. I have both the 23 and the 32, and can tell you the 32 is the better of the two. You chose wisely. It is the cure for buyer’s remorse. Second, I’m not Dennis (sorry!), but he often has more available than posted online. Call or email him directly and you’ll get them sent right to your inbox.
alimac23 Posted April 13, 2018 Author Report Posted April 13, 2018 Thanks pequod, I’ve been trying to convince myself that I’ll be happy with the 23 for a while but there was always a little voice saying go the 32.I’m part of a bbq team and the guys are all keen to come over and do lots of cooks on the new KK so the extra space will be very useful!Just sent Dennis a WhatsApp message. I really like the lighter terra blue tile that is on one of the 23” KK’sSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1

Looking forward to seeing your purchase when it arrives. If you don't get hold of Dennis via WhatsApp, do what I do: lurk on the KK website and send him a chat request or ring him when the chat app says he is online. Usually sometime between 5pm to 9:30pm UK time.
alimac23 Posted April 13, 2018 Author Report Posted April 13, 2018 Thanks tekobo, no rush at all for comms back from Dennis as my wife and I are in the Maldives on our honeymoon Absolutely stunning place!!!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2
Pequod Posted April 13, 2018 Report Posted April 13, 2018 You're...ummm...online looking for advice on a grill whilst on your honeymoon? Okay, well as long as you're here, I missed the part about Perth above. The grills posted online are "forward deployed" in a warehouse in Los Angeles. Your grill is most likely to come straight from Indonesia, in which case you definitely need to get your options straight from Dennis.

Haha the wife is in the spa getting a massage and I’m sitting at the bar with a beer, only place there is wifi on the island, so thought I’d come and do a bit of pre-sale “work” All good, I’ve messaged Dennis and will hopefully hear back from him shortly.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 2

tony b Posted April 13, 2018 Report Posted April 13, 2018 Congrats on both decisions - the wife and the KK! Now, go off and enjoy the rest of your honeymoon! 1
Bruce Pearson Posted April 13, 2018 Report Posted April 13, 2018 Congratulations on the marriage and on your purchase of a new KK I think the 32 is a great choice. Looking forward to seeing the arrival pictures and pictures of the first clock. Happy honeymoon and happy grilling

A honeymoon sounds like the ideal time to maximise your KK buying potential! Congratulations on both counts.
MacKenzie Posted April 14, 2018 Report Posted April 14, 2018 Thank goodness for those "little voices". You must be on cloud 9, you are on your honeymoon and you just settled on a KK.
alimac23 Posted April 14, 2018 Author Report Posted April 14, 2018 Thanks all, a very good time indeed, the honeymoon is spectacular and the KK decision has topped it off!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1

On a side note, today is the wife and my 30th anniversary. Been together so long we're starting to look like each other...her mustache is phenomenal! 2 6
EGGARY Posted April 15, 2018 Report Posted April 15, 2018 The 32” is a great Choice! A few of us have both , speaking for myself, I got the 23” first as the 32” wasn’t available. Then I got the 32” last year. Personally I like having the space to do more. 1
