Ok
So have decided to get a kamado. Kamodo Komodo is the dream but just cannot justify the spend. Kamodo joe is great but cannot see why it is more than the smoke King. I want something to slow cook, make pizzas and sear steaks. I want a traditional style kamodo so primo xl is out.
The only concern is the size? Is the smoke King big enough? I have a weber otg now

I have the Primo XL, the main thing for me was to be able to do large Briskets. If you want to do these then go for a 23inch / 57cm. I think the Primo XL and the Big Joe cover this size but not sure about the Smoke Kings?

Yes Smoke Kings are very similar to the majority of them. I chose a Saffire for the chip feeder and Smokekings flexible system fits it perfect (18")
Pick which one you want and make sure the accessories are included. IMO a deflector is not a 'extra' one company catches people this way...

I thought Smoke King stopped selling Kamados some time ago.
Anyway you can buy the same thing from Bunnings now for $800 as both Kamados where from Auplex. https://www.bunnings.com.au/chargriller ... r_p3180816 The main grill is 18 inch diameter
If you want to have some fun cooking and try out the Kamado style of cooking you can't go past the value of the Akorn for $499 from Bunnings. You get the deflector, grill extender, side tables and cover in the price. It is easy to buy one as there are plenty of Bunnings stores to drop in an have a look at one. They are made of metal and tough. The main grill is 20 inch diameter. It is between large and XL size Kamado. Because of the low price if people want to cook more they buy two Akorns. You can buy three Akorns for a price of name brand large Kamado.
