Location at Bell and Tatum in Phoenix AZ had 3 available yesterday, they were already assembled with no box available. I passed since these were stored outside and we got some heavy rain over the past month. I bought this 4 months ago at $299 and I love it so far.
dude, i think i snatched the last one this morning. i only saw one inside the BBQ area next to garden. Didn't see any rust but that was my hesitation with taking a pre-built model. Just saw someone put one together and I think I am good with the prebuilt.

Anyone have experience with this? Indirect grilling since fire is not directly under the food?
It's basically a large version of the masterbuilt portable grill. It works well as a smoker, but you have to make sure it's clean if you want to crank up the heat because it will start a grease fire quickly.

How does it work as a smoker? Do you add wood chips to the coal?

You can add wood blocks instead of chips to the hopper. You can layer it, put in some charcoal, then some chunks, and more charcoal on top.

Quote from dealmeister3000 :
Store inventory is accurate with one caveat. They don't count the floor model in the website count but their in store employee inventory will show it.

When I checked the indoor area it showed a tag for the clearance price but there was no grill there.

The floor model had been moved out to the garden center and had a tag with something like $399 on it. There were two other boxed grills showing in inventory. They had to hunt around for them and we found them in the area they keep grills that are to be assembled.

If you are going to get this deal hurry. It looks like they are assembling them and then going to stick them out in the weather with no cover.

If your local store shows no inventory just go in and see if there is a floor model either indoors or somewhere outside.

Anyway great deal. I paid for one and had them store it at will call so I can pick it up later. Make sure to tell them NOT to assemble it if you don't want it assembled by them.

As always DON'T CALL Go in in person and check.

Home Depot is so disorganized. I am glad at least for an item like this their in store inventory seems to be 100% accurate. But the associates are usually clueless and price tags are frequently wrong.
How often is it updated? Last YMMV Home Depot sale for hoses showed 13 in inventory in my local store. I went and the shelf was empty completely empty. Employee said they did not have anymore more.

After a smoke session just burn it off. I have a ton of cooks in my 1050 and zero fires.
The portable is kinda like its big brothers but sucks. Too small, temp control bites, not good at smoking. If I didn't have the 1050 I would be all over this. Just so its clear these are great smokers not grills

Thanks. Got one in Houston. The cashier told that they offer free assembly every Thursday. I am sure other locations have it too but they aren't disclosing it much. Has any of you seen its cover somewhere for an ok price?

So how does this work.. if you see that "ship to store" has "9 available" and then you go in person to buy one it will be at the 150$ price? Stores near me have "ship to store" items but maybe I need "pickup"?

Right under that, there is check stores nearby. You need to enter your zip and see if there is any available at the store nearby. Ship to store will not be clearance price

Found one at Thorton, CO. They still had 3 left, so their app inventory was accurate.
It didnt fit my VW ID4, so had to rent out their truck van. Their rental needs you to use "Clear" verification system & for some reason I was having issues with camera selfies processing & it locked me out. Thankfully had a friend who was able to input his number & start the process again.
