Pros
- The only built-in SKU on the page that ships with the support its warranty requires — the Table Nest is in the box
- Big Green Egg publishes a dated one-page built-in drawing: hole, drop to the shelf and rear-wall distance
- Tested more than any head here: Serious Eats found "the on-lid thermometer matched our external probe the whole way through"
- Sold direct at biggreenegg.com, so the Authorized Dealer receipt the warranty asks for is the order confirmation
Cons
- Ash comes out from above: Serious Eats "had to remove all of the internal parts of the grill to clean it, a task that was easier with the Kamado Joe"
- The warranty does not cover an EGG hung by its shoulders in the countertop hole — "attempting to suspend the EGG by any means other than an approved BGE Nest or solid, non-combustible surface under the base"
- The spec sheet demands a "non-combustible environment" while the warranty allows a wood table with a Metal Table Nest; build to the stricter one
- Warranty replacements ship at the purchaser's expense, and lighter fluid voids it
- Not on Amazon; no independent owner base to read
No independent owner base exists for this package. The documented catches are in Big Green Egg's own papers: the suspend-the-EGG exclusion, the non-combustible line on the spec sheet against the warranty's wood-table allowance, and replacements shipped at the owner's expense.

Pro review “It maintains a target temperature beautifully thanks to the ceramic construction, and the on-lid thermometer matched our external probe the whole way through.”— Rochelle Bilow, Serious Eats
