Don't know anything about it, but it is a cool looking grill.

That is a nice looking unit! And it appears to have a dedicated flame zone to the right.

Controller looks like my Memphis model.

The searing zone is electric.

Looks good, and it has some nice new ideas incorporated into the design, but I don't need anymore grills.

Well I am not so sure about the searing grates. They are basically just creating sear marks. Not a true flame zone with high heat.

Still a really nice sized pellet grill for the price.

That's pretty much what I was thinking, plus I'm not sure it's something I'd want to have to replace when it eventually fails.

Very cool. Like Muebe said. Curious about that dedicated sear zone. Looks like a gimmick, as it states it goes to only 500 degrees....not my idea of a great sear.

Well I got the number and called them up but no luck on a visit :( :(   The operator said yes they make them in another part of the city but no way could I get anymore info that that  ::) guess they don't need the word spread around about them.

To bad I was ready to go for a visit and get pictures and a good story.  Look like a good grill to

Have Googled this unit and I've been unable to find the manufacturer's website.  Did find the video that's posted.

I have noticed, however, that you can buy this unit online from Costco, Home Depot, eBay, Amazon and various dealers/stores.

Has anyone found a their company website?
