Dragon Fire cookers
Reply with quote

Hello and thanks to all for the forum and the helpful information it offers.

I'm considering the purchase of a BGE or a Dragon Fire. The Dragon Fire seems to be a better deal (About $100 cheaper) and even seems to have some better features (stainless bands), but I cannot find ANY reviews regarding quality, heat retention (efficiency) etcetera. Is the Dragon Fire just too new to the market? For me $600 - $800 is a lot of money and I want to spend it wisely.

Any help / guidance is sincerely appreciated.

Rob

No worries - I just moved this to sales, parts & repairs...

I just saw the Dragon Fire site for the first time yesterday. They look very nice in the brochure: Dragon Fire

But they are so new I have heard nothing about service or longevity.

I like all the features. They mention the exterior is glazed, implying these are a fired ceramic and not a castable. The springs look a little weak for the long haul, but provided the warranty support was sound, this would be very tempting.

Anyone else heard about these?

Looks like a nice piece. I like the lid damper and the stainless bands as well. Pretty sure thet there was a thread on the BGE forum last week with some feedback. Do a search there.
Whatever you do---do not buy a cement Kooker from RJ and his band of crooks.

Thanks for the tips. I took a look at the 'Eggheads' forum, but found no reference to the Dragon Fire. Do you have a link?

Thanks again.

The egg forum wraps pretty quickly. Also, discussions of competitors is usually frowned upon, so it might have been deleted.

Went back to the BGE forum but could'nt find anything, don't have much time to look though. I believe the post was titled "Knock off" or something similar. There were quite a few replies so I don't think it was bumped off.
Even had a link to the sales brochere. No one there had seen or used one of these either FWIW.
