Pros
- The same maker and the same 2-year terms as the Longhorn for a good deal less money
- Owners describe it as sturdy and "thicker gauge steel" than the thin offsets they learned on
- Its 2026 critical tail is two reviews out of 64 ratings
- Sold by Amazon itself; the four marketplace sellers on the same listing all ask far more
Cons
- Stock has been patchy: Amazon and oklahomajoes.com both showed it out of stock on 2026-10-09; both had it again on 2026-10-17, with Amazon quoting delivery 9 to 18 days out
- Amazon lists it as non-returnable, citing hazardous-materials shipping rules
- Not the Highland most reviews describe: the older 15202031 had 619 sq in and 178 lb by its reviewers' spec tables, this one has 616 and 156
- Both 2026 critical reviews: paint peeling from the firebox within weeks, and a new slide-out ash catcher that lets air rush into the fire if anything sits under it
- Owners who rate it five stars still list the mods: gaskets, a charcoal basket, a baffle and a stack extension
Finish and the new ash drawer. One owner: "5 weeks and the paint is peeling", a bent lid, rust in the exhaust lid and metal "bending with the heat", with the maker offering a gasket. Another, coming from the older Highland: the new slide-out ash catcher will not close "if even a TINY PIECE of anything at all is in between", letting air into the charcoal side "at a high rate of speed".
