I found a MES at the local Sam's club that was the last one in the store -- it was the display model. I got it for $188.31!!! (plus tax)
It is stainless and in pretty good shape with just the minor scuffs of a floor model and a small piece of the black plastic trim on the bottom of the door broken off. The model number is 20070407. The Sam's club item number is 904335 (to look it up on Sam's website). Is this the 30" or 40" model? It does not say anywhere, and it's measurements do not exactly match anything I have found online.
It is outside now turned up to 275 and giving off some very noxious smoke from whatever they put in it at the factory. It was so bad I must have checked four times that I did not somehow leave some plastic inside!
When the fumes stop it will get a couple hours of hickory to season. Should I spray the inside with oil or something for seasoning, or just use smoke?
Thanks for any input.
