Title: Is this a good deal?

Saw this at sam's club today. I wasn't sure of how good a deal it is. I don't know how much these usually go for. (http://i1178.photobucket.com/albums/x372/Bradsanders99/IMAG0947_zpsc1a6c238.jpg) (http://s1178.photobucket.com/user/Bradsanders99/media/IMAG0947_zpsc1a6c238.jpg.html)

IMHO...

This grill is pretty small at 201 sq in cooking area.  The Vision Model B has over 600 sq in area.
The AKORN at Lowes et al has a Grill Surface Area of 310 sq. in.  I have cooked 2 butts therein.  NO, it is NOT the largest cooker you can buy, but at $299, I find it fit my budget and my needs quite well.  I STILL enjoy using it, especially with this cooler weather.

just sayin'...

Agreed.  I have a Classic B that I occasionally wish had a little bit more space, and this one (I have seen it in person at the club) is tiny in comparison to the B.
