More consistent burning
I purchased this basket for a Kamado Joe Classic I grill. The fit is perfect and it seems to have resolved an issue I had with coals being directly on the ceramic and splitting into two barely smoldering halves. I do have to stop down the venting a bit to keep from overshooting my target temperature. The quality is great, being that it is solid stainless steel and not some chrome plated steel that will quickly degrade. One other plus to using this basket is since the bottom plate is removed and the ash basket is exposed you can toss in wood chips later in the process to add a bit more smoke.

High Heat Necessity
2nd year into using my Joe, and never got the super high heat for searing steaks, or doing pizzas. This is the missing link. Creates more surface area, and greater ventilation - resulting in higher heat. Makes for easy clean up, and easily allows hitting the 750 to 900 degree temps. Downside is hard to do slow and go without almost shutting down vents completely. So I go back to stock grate when smoking, and use the basket when I'm looking for the higher grilling temps. Sturdy build, and should have lasting power. Clean and store when not using, so not in the elements when not being used. Pricey, but to be expected with all Joe/Green accessories.

Airflow, Airflow, Airflow !
I've watched video after video on Kamados, and have always noticed that the Pros use baskets for better airflow over the stock cast iron grate. I could never get the types of sear temperatures they talked about... until I switched to this. Awesome !!! The packaging explained how to do a slow burn, and then up it for searing. Worked perfectly - smoked a roast before searing it, for a perfect, tender, smokey, medium-rare tenderloin. CON: Very expensive for the Big Joe, but the only one I found that works for it (plenty of reasonably priced options for the smaller kamados).

A great addition to my Kamado Joe!
Cleaning the fire box on my Kamado Joe was never fun. It was a pain getting out the small pieces of charcoal that remained. I was watching a video on cooking and saw the Kamado Joe owner used one of these baskets and decided to give it a try. It is a perfect fit into my Kamado Joe classic. You do have to do some disassembly, but that also gave me a chance to get the shop vac out and do some cleaning. Now that I have it installed it is super easy to give it a shake (or a stir) and both the ash and small pieces drop into the ash collection tray. Just add more charcoal and you are ready to roll!. I did read some reviews that noted you have to relearn your vent settings for temperature, and I have found that to be somewhat the case. It isn't as different as I expected, but it does allow a lot more airflow. Overall this is a great addition to my grill. Super happy I did it.

What a Difference!
I have been wanting to get one of these for a while now for my KJ and I finally pulled the trigger, and I'm glad I did!! This makes for much easier temperature control and much easier clean up! I wish I had gotten this a long time ago as it just makes cooking on my KJ more efficient and easy! Only reason for not giving it 5 stars it the high price. I feel like it should be closer to $50.

Game changer even if a bit pricy
I seriously love this thing. Having the Kick Ash in my grill has not only made cleanup super easy it has also improved my airflow. Having this has prevented those pesky ash buildups and has helped in keeping my temps consistent for long hours. My only complaint is that the asking price is quite high although not as high as KJโs first party basket. Overall great buy and Iโm glad I got it.

It works as intended
Arrived as described. Works as described and does the job. A bit pricey but until there are more options out there, this is a good choice to purchase. Well made and sturdy. Would purchase again, but hopefully this one will last a lifetime

I don't write a lot of reviews, but this is worth it. I know it is just a simple basket, but it is a game change for my Akorn grill. My grill doesn't normally allow enough air flow around the sides and I couldn't get proper searing temps. This completely solves my issue and makes cleaning and coal changes sooo much easier. It's heavy duty stainless and should easily last me a lifetime.
