Word to the wise, save up a little longer, buy a BGE or KJ, get much better cooks and it'll save you money in the long run when this things rusts out. The real brands will not.
It's also more efficient (saves money on charcoal) and is not as fragile and heavy as its ceramic counterparts.

Add this to your cart FIRST
(If you own a different Akorn grill you can substitute any cover)
Add the Akorn Jr Kamado orange [chargriller.com] next
At checkout add code: FREECOVER

The Jr is enough for 4 people and I used it for years, but now I usually use the bigger model.
I'll slow cook many different meats all day for meal prepping. Today I cooked a pork shoulder, a beef roast, a meat loaf, and 8 chicken legs all at the same time with out them touching on the larger model.
Also it's nice to be able to make a large pizza in the full size model. On the Jr I was making six or more 9" pizzas. I actually prefer the Jr for making pizzas as it worked really well, but it was time consuming.
The Jr is big enough for a whole chicken or even a small turkey, but it's tight.
There's stainless steel heat deflectors on amazon..I recommend these over the smoking stones, because they last forever...the smoking stones break.

Yes, the more expensive grills are nicer and generally more convenient, but if you want something to really learn how to grill and smoke with charcoal on, I really don't think there is anything better out there for the price. It's really a matter of putting in the time to learn.

If you aren't sure you want to jump into kamado cooking, the akorn is where to be. I'd rather spend $150-$300 on a grill to find out if I like the cooking style than $800+
I haven't bought the akorn jr, but of all the small kamados I feel like it's the only one that makes sense to buy. It's the only one that's actually portable. The ceramic ones are way to heavy.
But if you have a spot to store it indoors when not in use, the thing is fantastic to cook with.
