I purchased a SM150 off of Craigslist last night. It was a whirlwind crazy afternoon, negotiating and driving 2 hours to get the unit. When I arrived the SM150 was humming along smoke coming out of the top. Temperature was holding at 225 and verified with my thermometer. When we opened the unit and the smoke cleared, I saw that there was a baffle in the bottom position!!! I asked him what it was and he said it helped distribute the smoke evenly and you could fry on it. I almost lost it! I had trouble containing myself to not laugh. He then showed me all of the racks that came with it. 3 Rib racks, the kind that slide in and are made from cookshack. 2 Seafood grills and 4 SS racks. The unit looks brand new. He told me he used it twice and put it away back in 1996. You can see in the pictures that he probably left the baffle in the bottom position during his 2 smokes, as the seasoning of the smoker only occurred below it. So basically I got a brand new SM150 from 1996.
