The quality of the product is unbelievable. It is very well constructed and incredibly heavy durable material. The customer service was excellent was the staff willing to go through all of the items with recommendations and were very patient to make sure everything was explained and then I understood. Product was shipped quickly and very well to protect the items. If I am looking for any more accessories for my Big Green Egg this will be the first place that I will check

Worked as it says. Easy to build following the video. I helped my mover lift it off the stand. Then two movers used it with shoulder straps underneath but said they didn't really need them after they moved it. The Chariot was absolutely 100% needed to move our grill to a new home.
I was looking for an alternative to to the KJ heat deflector I have had to replace several times. This arrived quickly and appears to be more durable than the KJ JR deflector. Time will tell.
This was a major improvement over the OEM smoke stone support bracket. Fits my Vision B Series perfectly.
Perfect fit for big green egg. Cover it with foil and keep your ceramics clean. What more could you ask.
If you have a Kamado Joe Jr, this is a must have in my opinion. It works great and is so much easier to manage with the handles! Great quality. The solid ring is a lot more steady when using a full diffuser or half for indirect. There's no chance of anything falling in the fire. Easy to add charcoal. Love it.
Inexpensive and works great as a drip pan. Quick delivery!
When I received box, it stated that the band was for "2008 and newer". Before opening, I called and was told there is only one band and it should work. I proceeded to install band on a 2003 egg, no problem. Never have problem with CGS customer service.
I very rarely give 5star .that being said it went very well the removal of the old seal took me about 2 hours and another 15 minutes to get the new seal on . Then I did as described in the video and allowed the egg to heat to about 270 to 300 degrees for two hours then cool down for about 1hour . Not bad just took time to get theold glue off
These guys are AWESOME. They helped me figure out what my (only) option for an older BGE XL.
I highly recommend them!
I grilled a leg of lamb and it was a hit. Thank you for the availability notification and quick shipping.
Update, took some bigger lumps out and back filled with Green Egg smaller chunks, fit fine then. The double indirect was great, no burnt bottom, 275-290 with the egg genius foil boat at 165, had run out of pink butcher paper so foil boat. Moist and nice flop brisket. Highly recommend this double indirect set up. I will try ribs or a pork loin next. Before: Starting a brisket point cook and filled the firebox with FOGO XL premium lump up to the fire ring and when I put in the double indirect set up the pizza stone hit the charcoal. Any less I may not have enough for the cook. Let’s see what happens. Maybe a better set up would have been putting the pizza some on top of the plate setter and spaced it 1/2”-1”.
Howdy Mark,
Thanks for taking the time to write a review! A couple things I’ve learned from cooking on the Large EGG:
I prefer standard-size lump. The XL chunks often leave “dead spots” since they don’t burn evenly, which affects how consistent the heat crosses over the grid. With standard size, I can pack more into the firebox, and the tighter fit creates more points of contact so the fire carries better as it burns. If you’re using Fogo, their black bag works great—it’s essentially the smaller pieces that don’t make it into the premium bags.
On indirect bbq cooks, space is your best friend. You want distance between the deflector & cooking grid. The goal is even heat—where the radiant heat through the deflector(s) and the rising heat around the deflector(s) balance out, giving you consistent temps both above and below to cooking surface. The conveggtor can make this a challenge, as it limits how we can use prime space in the large EGG.

A bit tough to install initially but looks good performs great and a nice upgrade compared to the stock KJ Junior event opening.
extremely happy with my purchase as the products were great, and the basket offers a much higher level of cooking and cleanup satisfaction.
Awesome product. Fits my Joe Junior perfectly and offers easier access to install the heat deflector.
Works great. Adds another dynamic to the Big Green Egg. I have done one whole chicken and a 2 and a 1/4 pound pork loin roast. The temperature was easier to regulate than I thought with the lid slightly open.
Great product. I thought they might be too small but they are a great size. Huge improvement from the original Side tables from when we first purchased the XXL egg in 2006. Great update.
