Patriots BBQ pipe smokers?

[sidpost]

Who has experience with Patriots BBQ pipe smokers?  What I see on their web site looks good and a phone call to them was well worth the time spent.

How would you compare them to Lang and other reverse flow smokers, or other premium pits in a similar price range (Gator Pits, Klose, etc.)?  The pictures don't really show the welds, hinges, handles, etc. so I'm looking for construction comments as well.

TIA,

Sid

They look well built but I doubt there's a big following seeing as they are only a few years old.  BTW -- I'll be surprised if that link survives the night.  It's against Jeff's rules to link offsite.

Thanks for the hint on the link (deleted).  I include them for convenience, not for commercial reasons like "deal spotting" or "shill" posting.  But, it's not hard to google most manufacturers so, not a big loss.
