I LOVE MY KAMADO ARE THEIR ANY PRODUCTS OUT THEIR THAT DO NOT FAIL?
I HATE THE KAMADO COMPANY. I WONT GO INTO DETAIL AND ANGER MYSELF. BUT MY KAMADO HAS FAILED BY THE SUPPORT BRACKETS AND CRUMBLING TILE.
THE SERVICE IS HORRIBLE. I CAN NOT BELIIVE THESE IDIOTS ALLOW SUCH A TRAVESTY TO CONTINUE. WHY NOT FOLD UP SHOP AND OPEN UP UNDER A NEW NAME.
RICHARD, RACHELLE AND TONY ARE LIARS. THEY TOLD ME THEY WOULD REPLACE MY KAMADO AND THEY DID NOT. NOR DID THEY RETURN THE 20 CALLS I PRESENTED TO THEM.
WHAT A NIGHTMARE. DO NOT BUY THEIR PRODUCT IT SUCKS. |

| Failed, you ask if there are any products that do not fail. If you want a tiled cooker that is the ultimate, look at Komodo Kamado. They are a totally different company and run by an honest person who strives to make his cookers as perfect as he can get them. Check them out. |

| It's going to be hard to replace the grills of all the people who thought they were buying a ceramic grill and discovered they got a lump of portland cement and lava rock and chicken wire. |

I have personally never seen any of those, but that is not to say that it is not possible. We have been busy going over things and will continue to improve our product to provide a quality Kamado.
...besides, we have to start somewhere. |

| That's about all RJ ever made. What material do you think the current cookers are made from? |

Well then, go ahead and click on the section of this website called "Wall of shame" There are a few examples in there to get you started. OR you can come over to my house, and I will show you one up close and personal.
Now this begs the question - if you have never seen a cement Kamado, EXACTLY WHAT ARE YOU MAKING YOUR GRILLS FROM?
And please understand, that if you say ANYTHING other than CEMENT we are going to want to see some photographic proof, because RJ has already worn that lie out...with all sorts of bullshit ranging from Rhodium to magic F'in pixie dust.
So if your not using CEMENT, lets see some invoices for materials...lets see a picture of a pallet or two of real refractory, some MSDS sheets from the materials? |

Hope this helps? I cannot figure out how to attach a file to a post, so I copy and pasted the product data information. This what we will be using along with some magic effing pixie dust...haha. After talking to our rep, we were told that it actually will get stronger through heat cycling and is actually overkill for what are needs are as well.

• Outstanding hot strength.
Uses: • Ideal for cyclical temperature applications where thermal shock resistance is needed.
