Bad design. Bad execution.
In summary, it’s a very bad design that results in a huge amount of air leakage. The build quality is also lacking, which contributes to the problem.
This is to my knowledge one of the most expensive kamado grills on the market. A kamado grill is an exceedingly simple device that needs to perform merely two tasks: 1. Hold burning charcoal and 2. Tightly control airflow inward and outward. This grill fails at #2 spectacularly. The amount of air leakage into this grill is beyond excessive. I can literally see smoke leaking out from the sides of the metal panel for the air inlet controls. Controlling the temperature tightly is impossible as a result (I can never get the temperature to stay below 275F). And putting out the coals is outright impossible. I’ve attached a photo that shows one of the gaps and the smoke leaking through it.
This large panel on the front of the grill represents a potentially large gap for air leakage (which is probably why most other manufacturers don’t attempt this sort of thing). For it to seal properly, the build qualIty must be good and the tolerances must be tight. They are not. The build quality is poor and the tolerances are very loose. As a result, there are multiple gaps everywhere on this panel where air leaks in.
For a $1500 grill, this is beyond unacceptable. The folks at Vision are very nice people who are unquestionably eager to help, but the unfortunate reality is that great customer service cannot fix a faulty product.
I suspect I can fix this grill and make it work (ie by placing sealing materials that can span the multiple gaps everywhere), but I really shouldn’t have to do this.

The lid leaks.
Aside from the air and smoke leaking around the air inlets, the lid of this grill leaks. Again, this is simply poor design. Other brands have a different mechanism for closing their lids that results in the lid pressing flat against the body of the grill, and combined with gravity, the seal is thorough along the circumference of the lid. The Vision mechanism, in stark contrast, is a simple spring-supported hinge that does not achieve this. Over a very short time, as the black felt gasket compresses, the seal becomes inadequate and allows a lot of leakage. And there is simply no way to adjust the closure so that the lid seals more completely. You can tighten the latch at the front (which keeps the lid locked down), but this will only make the front of the lid press harder. The inadequate seal will remain at the rear half of the lid. As a result, I routinely see smoke leaking from the rear half of the lid (and smoke stains are visible on the back half of the rim of the lid).

Quality is there!
I was nervous for the price, but all the competitors are running about the same for a 24”… and it’s worth it. Solid frame, solid hinge and locking system, nice details with the seals & sturdy vent. But the biggest sell for me is the gas conversion!
