It looks like they took their roto ring, cut a hole in it and added a thermo and handles.

I had no idea, until just now, that they (onlyfire) built a roto ring with a full lip on the bottom.
I have, and only had seen, the one with the bolt on clips that leave a gap around the bowl edge.

I wish that I had seen the type with the lip when I was looking.

Isn't that the same company that ripped off the slow n' sear?

That was my initial thought then I couldn't remember what it was they ripped off recently.  I think you are right.  The rotisserie I get and don't really get mad at them making a rotisserie that is cheaper then weber's rotisserie, but then they ripped of the slow-n-sear and now the kettle pizza.  Kind of shady in my mind and I think if I didn't already have a Kettle Pizza I would still not consider the onlyfire since they are trending towards ripping off more and more hard working American companies.  One of the coolest things about unboxing things from Kettle Pizza is the card that is in the box that says everything is made in the US.

I don't know anything about the slow and sear but I got my Onlyfire Pizza ring today.  It is heads and tails above the Pizzaque that I have.  The lid fits correctly.  It fits the kettle perfectly.  It is well finished and easy to assemble.  I have not used the KettlePizza but I have used the Pizzaque.  I know they are borrowing a concept but they have improved it.  I feel the same way about their Rotiserie Ring.  It fits the kettle better than the others.  I have not seen the improved version of the Weber Roti ring. but it seem to be about the same but in stainless steel.  I have a problem with companies that blatantly copy but If they improve, I'm all for it....

I made pizza on my Onlyfire Pizza ring last night.  It dropped right on my SSP. No interference, No problems with lid bail to table.
I made the pizza on parchment, trimmed to pizza size and launched it on the parchment.  4 min later I pulled it out, rotated 180 and removed the parchment.  4 min later we ate pizza.  I used a full chimney of KBB and 6 chunks of hickory.  The Onlyfire fit the SSP much better than Pizzaque.  No clips to maneuver. More support for the stone.  Good Pizza!!!

Post some pics of your Onlyfire ring. I have a Pizza Que in the box and haven't used it yet. (could get gifted!)

I was given a 22" Stainless steel and an 18" black Onlyfire rotisserie rings and the fit is pretty sloppy compared to the Weber and Cajun Bandit rings.

I had an only fire roto before I was able to swap it out for a Weber roto when I agented a grill purchase for someone.  The only fire roto did have a bit of a gap around it, but I got some high heat gasket (the one for the Big Green Egg) and that really helps close up the gap between the roto ring and the kettle.

All of this Onlyfire product is china made, and even china owned.

Mike rock the red, you obviously had the early version of the onlyfire.  Check out the latest website. 
I will not get into a pissin match with you guys about Chinese crap.  I have stated that I own a Pizzaque.  I have only observed the Pizza que.  The Onlyfire, while made in China, just like the computer you are writing on, was far superior in construction than the other units I have observed.  I make this statement as a 35 year Stainless Steel fabricator of Winery equipment.  As I have stated, the chinese have no great love in my heart.  I partially blame them for the demise of my business.  You cannot believe the astonishment at discovering my products cloned and on somebody else's website.  No improvements, no changes, just
copied.  But as I have stated, If the product is improved.  Have at it....

no pissing match desired.
i don't consider "chinese made" to be a signal of quality at all. Plenty of high end things are made there.

In this instance, it's more about business practices and innovation. I'm certainly not defending any pizza que...

Being made in China is not the issue. The rip off cloning of American made products is. I would not purchase anything from only fire.

I purchased a pizzaque and like it but best I can tell, it is it's own design and not a copy. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. I'm not aware of anything else like the pizzaque.

   Well lets see Onlyfire make something original for grills instead of "improving" what an american company took the time to start up from scratch. Not gonna happen requires to much R&D. The best way you can say thank you to these american companies is to buy their products and avoid these leeches 100%.
   I'm not one to wrap myself in the American flag but the type of work I do requires that your tools and clothes be of good quality or your work will suffer. So if the metal is thinner and a lower quality dont waste my time now if this were a high quality product where a true apples to apples comparison can be done I welcome it. Ok I'm getting off my soapbox.

That's fine guys, but competition breeds improvement.  The Onlyfire may be made in china but it is Heads and Tails in quality above the Pizzaque.  Remember I own both.  The Pizzaque needs improvement.  It neither fits the kettle properly nor the lid.  The lid is always in peril of falling off.  It doesn't fit a kettle with a table or a lid bail.  The cheap charcoal fence should last at least 6 uses.  If you make a mistake and shove the pizza a little to far it falls off the back of the stone and you are screwed.  The Onlyfire has none of these problems.  If Pizzaque wants to compete in this market they are Very Welcome to make improvements to their products.  The Kettlepizza seems to be much more substantial but still has some things that could be improved.  The Onlyfire improved them!
I am sorry some of you don't like improved products.  I for one will buy the best products for my $

Now, If Cajun Bandit wants to jump into the frey,  and can keep their $ in the $125 range. I would love to see their product and would have nothing against purchasing one if I can see an improvement.  I could see only one improvement on the Onlyfire and have made it on my own unit.  The Onlyfire unit has the grate too low under the window.  The clips they supply are asking for trouble.  A little reengineering and the grate could be contained in the ring.  It would then be perfect.  I hope some US company could do this.  I feel that Cajun Bandit already had the tooling and capability.  It would be a natural.
