I pulled the trigger on one of these aftermarket burn pots sold by parts 4 less. Cannot possibly be any worse than the cast pot I purchased last season. After less than a full season the cracks are numerous and deep. Sections of the bottom are ready to break off.
it depends on who is making them for them and the quality of SS. The first one i purchase cracked within the first couple of months and they would not even entertain warranty... Second one is going on its 3rd season and it cracked midway though last season but not as bad as the first one..
New pellet pot arrived and it looks impressive. Looks don’t cut it though when it comes to stainless steel. Proof will be in the performance this season. My money is on the hope it’s got to last longer than the cast piece of crap I put in last season. We will see.
Public service update 😁. Initial impression using this aftermarket pot is good. Fits perfectly. My pellets flame up noticeably quicker than with the cast iron pellet pots. Air flow looks good as the flame is bold and bright. Will update conditions at the end of the heating season, unless the pot fails prior to.
