EssentialLump charcoal
Supermarket briquettes give smoke and ash; a kamado is built for large lumps that burn for hours. Marabu is the classic choice — hard wood, little ash, and what is left over gets reused next time.

Grill Guru
Original Compact
Compact in size, but supplied complete with a stand
€418.00
Too few measurements yetWe have only recently started tracking this price. Once we have measured enough days, this will say whether now is a good moment.
Grill Guru sells its Original range as "complete" by default: stand, side shelves and heat deflector are included. On a kamado that is not a detail. A frame costs between two and four hundred euros on its own, and at most brands it is not in the box.
Count that in and this compact changes character. Against a tabletop model of the same size it looks dearer, but that one still needs a stand — and then this is usually the cheaper answer.
The ceramic is thinner than the big three, which you notice when you want to hold a low temperature in wind. For grilling, pizza and the occasional long session that is no obstacle.
Who it suits: A small terrace where the barbecue has to be wheeled away and cannot live on a table.

This is what we know for certain. Measurements the manufacturer or the shop does not state are left out rather than estimated — a grate size or a weight that is not there is one we do not have.

EssentialFirelighters
Wood-wool lighters rather than fluid or chemical cubes. Lighter fluid is something you taste for the first hour, and in a kamado that flavour sits in the ceramic where it does not come out again.

Measuring
RecommendedMeat thermometer
The gauge in the lid measures the air at the top of the dome, not the meat and not the grate. For anything taking more than an hour, core temperature is the only number that counts.

Protection
RecommendedCover 13–15 inch
Ceramic copes with frost, but the hardware and hinges do not cope with months of rain. At this size a cover is the cheapest maintenance there is.

Maintenance
RecommendedAsh tool
Ash in the base blocks the bottom vent, and a kamado that gets no air holds no temperature. A hook that reaches the back of the firebox is the difference between two minutes of work and half a teardown.

Maintenance
Can waitGasket felt
The felt between dome and base wears, and a kamado drawing air past the lid can no longer be held at a low setting. This is the part that comes due after a few years, and it is replaceable without tools.

Can waitCharcoal basket (Grill Guru)
A basket keeps the charcoal together and lets the ash fall through, which reduces emptying afterwards to a single movement. It is also the easiest way to run on a half load.
