Bull Brand New Bull!

learnmedia · Sep 17, 2022

Hey Everyone,
New to the forum here and just wanted to quickly shout good vibes to you and share my newly assembled RT-700! It’s gorgeous. Can’t wait to put it through its paces. In complete transparency, I didn’t put it together. Since I purchased through Amazon, it came with free assembly. Happy Smokin’!

I just saw the Amazon deal you got, great deal!

Same price as the RecTeq website but also included free assembly?!?! SCORE

Have fun with the grill. Best advice is to let it do its thing. Opening and closing the door, changing temps back and forth will cause issues. Let it stabilize and it will do its thing and do it well.

Enjoy

Thank you! Yes the free assembly was great and eased the sting of purchasing the day before the 10% off Labor Day sale. Buying via Amazon meant Recteq couldn’t do a price adjustment, but true to their legendary customer service, they comp’d me a rubs and sauces bundle. Love the continued value adds!

Congrats on the new grill and welcome to the forum. Looks like you’re off to a great start.

How does the “free assembly” thing work? Does Amazon schedule someone to come to your house and do the assembly? Or, do you have to find someone and get reimbursed. Just curious.

Thank you!

Yes, Amazon schedules an assembler and they communicate the appointment via email and text message with reminders. Very friendly, professional and experienced. The gentleman who arrived yesterday works for National Assemblers, Inc. He claimed he does up to 20 assemblies a day including bicycles, grills, and more, and that the company has 7,000 employees nationwide. And it is truly free. $99 fee in the shopping cart is reversed at check out. Even the assembler was surprised when he saw there was no cost to me.

Very interesting; thanks for the information. I didn’t realize such a service existed.

No. It was assembled at my home.

Welcome to the Forum and the RecTeq Family
Sorry to hear you missed-our on the fun of assembling your Grill

Surprised one Guy did it alone
Would liked to have seen how he moved / lifted the thing by himself

Thank you! I’m enjoying the friendly environment. But don’t worry about me missing out on assembly fun. Like our friend who went at it alone, I did a solo assembly on a 260 lb. stick burning beast two days ago to complete #2 of my new 3 grill arsenal.

Yeah, I remember assembling my Stick Burner .... alone
But that was 20 years ago

I did my Bull by myself.

I also set it back down by myself to do the wheel mod. Called the wife to help me stand it back up. I wuz pooped.

Would like to see that Wheel mod on the newer 700! I'm on the struggle bus (new 700 and an old bullseye on a cart).

Here's my wheel mod - LOL just the comp cart.

In hindsight, I coulda/shoulda just bought that instead of doing the Mod. If for no other reason, the aggravation factor (with the wheel Mod).

Here you go..........

In hindsight, I'd just buy the Comp Cart. Cutting the spindles out of the legs was a major PITA. I never did get all of the spindle(s) out of the legs, hence the angle on the wheels. There have been no negative side effects of the wheels being angled so far.

thank you...i'm right there w/ you. Lot of PITA to do that mod. I had to put my bullseye on a DIY cart to get it grownup height. Thanks for the reply
