I saw one of those at Academy a couple of weeks ago.  It looked really cool.  I am interested in hearing what an owner thinks of it as well.

We sell them at Academy. I have looked them over and they seem well built and have some cool features. To be honest I think I would stay with a Weber kettle grill (maybe just because I already have one, who knows).

I do believe Smoke was off the TendaRub when this event occurred. I think it was bacon or burgers, rather the grease, may have caught afire and the center charcoal basket fell/melted out. Good thing nobody was injured!

I think Stok has some really innovative ideas but quality control isn't there.

I tried a Stok kettle and while it looks cool and is well thought out.....the cheap materials make it a 2 summer grill at best.
