Default Re: Big Steel Keg

I'm going to call B.S on his claim. I don't have one but have checked them out in the store and they are built like a tank. If you used it everyday, did not clean it and left it outside with no cover in the winter then yeah maybe.

Don't get me wrong he was gushing about the Keg and didn't once steer me to the Big Green Egg, which he also sells for twice the price. So what gives? Do these things burn out quickly? I was hoping to see at least 15 years out of this. I've had some cheap propane grills that easily lasted 10+ years with a little TLC. I will definitely give the BSK the same care, but I'm concerned if they will inherently burn out from the in-side out. Is this something I should be concerned with?

Thanks.
