So I was just looking at some pellet grills that are for sale at a locally owned retailer and happened to find a MAK 1 star for sale in their clearance items. How long ago did MAK stop selling through retail locations? I'm wondering how old it is and if it's worth making them a lower offer than what they are asking? I don't really need a new pellet grill, but everyone raves about the MAK so I thought I might be able to score a really nice pellet grill for a good price. Any and all information and opinions are welcome.

I wanna say 2-3 years ago, but that is a guess. I have no idea. Get a serial# and calling the company and asking would be the best action.

They are asking $1100 for it. I'm guessing that it's absolutely worth that, but then I would likely need to spend money to buy the flame zone insert and other add-ons from MAK. I was thinking I could offer them 800-900 and see if they bite.

The older one stars had a smaller capacity too. I think your offer is fair

Any idea what the total sq. in. of cooking space is?
-
YouTube vid from 2016 says 380 sq. in.

Wow!! That is small. Kind of disappointing. I have a GMG Daniel Boone and was thinking it might be nice to upgrade to the Mak but I don't want to down size. Maybe I just need to keep saving and buy something else. Oh well. Thanks to everyone who responded.

I believe you can buy upper racks for these to double the space. I know I have them for my MAK 2 that is 8-10 years old. I have the half rack ones. I have two of them. They give me more flexibility in utilizing them. MAK doesn't have them on their site. It may be worthwhile giving them a call to see if they still have some in stock before you give up on this.
