I decided to go with the green 733 and got those bear claws, both the smoker and the 733 should be here when I get home tomorrow.

The boxes arrived yesterday and I'm looking forward to seasoning it after work.  The packaging/shipping were great! And the quality of the product is fantastic, this forum was very helpful. Couple questions, the little kid in me decided to unload everything without looking carefully how the smoke box was installed.  I assume the end that's flat should be toward the rear of the smoker? Also, should the locking wheels be on the rear or front of the unit?

The smoke box won't go all the way in if you have it backwards. If I understand what you are saying, the flat end should be toward the front. If it helps the lid should open to the left like a book. That is how I make sure I put mine in right all the time.

I put my locking wheels toward the front for easier access based on where my smoker sits.

+1    I have the wheel locks on the front as well, and yes, the smoke box only goes in one way.

Hey Katz,

Welcome also ordered the 733 with the bear claws, but just upgraded to the 735 which has a nice app for the Iphone and Android.

For me the 735 with the app is easier to setup, but both are great.
