Thunder77 171 Posted April 3, 2019 I have just seen a Primo round version for sale. Any thoughts about this grill from anyone? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ckreef 19,229 Posted April 3, 2019 Primo's main selling point for a premium kamado (with a premium price tag) is its oval design. You basically loose that premium feature. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vanole 48 Posted April 3, 2019 Agree ckreef above. I would not worry about quality even if its a traditional kamado. Another Primo selling point to some folks is that its made on "okina shima" aka the big island USA. 1 ckreef reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thunder77 171 Posted April 4, 2019 (edited) It is on sale for $450. That was a big reason why I am interested. And if it's Primo, it's got to be good right? Edited April 4, 2019 by Thunder77 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ckreef 19,229 Posted April 4, 2019 Yea $450 is a great price. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vanole 48 Posted April 4, 2019 Find out condition? If issues exist with it ask seller if he is original owner. If he/she is see if owner would order parts under warranty. $450 is a decent price but ceramic pieces start adding up if need replacing. Good luck...

keeperovdeflame 9,621 Posted April 8, 2019 Sounds like a great deal to me, and yes if it is a Primo it is most definitely a quality kamado. Even if you have to replace some ceramic parts, I am thinking you would be way ahead of the game. Does it have an 18 1/2 " grate if so it is along the line of a large BGE, or a KJ Classic. should be more than enough kamado for normal use. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NOLA New-Griller 156 Posted November 6, 2019 for $405, I'd buy it to have a second round. I love my Primo. I've owned for 4 years now, sits in an outdoor patio uncovered. (Patio is covered, frill is not so still in the elements. The one thing is aftermarket for round primo is a bit tricky; I've ended up fashoning my own racks and cool zone separators (a box of fire brick from Ace hardware and some aluminum racks saved quite some money) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
