    Back panel of MES30

    Has anyone experienced the back panel warping on their MES30? If so, what did you do about it? I had mine off for component replacement and now is the time to straighten it out before screwing it down. Thanks!

    Please...help me choose an MES!

    I've been reading for days trying to choose an MES that won't be a poor reliability investment. I've been smoking for about a year on my Weber propane grill that I temporarily convert.  I'd like something more set-and-forget and something dedicated for smoking. I'm convinced 30" is about the...
