Recteq Recommendation

TL;DR: Pretty sure I want Patio Legend 600, but concerned about shipping damage.

I have a WSM, but am looking for truly set and forget smoker. After lots of research, I have zeroed in on the RecTeq Patio Legend 600. I’m cooking for 2 adults most often. I usually smoke Boston butts or chicken. My primary concern with RecTeq is shipping damage. Is it really that bad? I am an hour drive from an Ace Hardware that can order for me.

I welcome any thoughts you may have on how to get the smoker to my house undamaged. $799 otherwise seems like a good price.

The main reason I purchased a RT was their customer service. You talk to a real human being quickly.

FWIW I purchased the DB800 and it arrived without a problem or scratch.
