Not if you're looking to use it LIKE a Slow N Sear. It's its own beast.

So the slow n sear actually helps with temp control? Compared to the baskets?

Check out this link. No accessories needed. Accessories make doing certain things more convenient but you can cook anything without them.

Yep. If you haven't checked it out yet, Troy has a pretty thorough review of the Slow n Sear.

http://weberkettleclub.com/blog/2016/01/04/slownsear-review-the-best-way-to-smoke-in-your-weber-kettle/

Now if you're looking to save money, I use a couple common bricks, and have pretty decent luck keeping whatever temp I want. I do everything from slow smoking pulled pork, ribs or brisket, to reverse searing steaks using $3.00 worth of bricks from Menards.  YMMV.

The baskets cN be used effectively,  however the SNS makes it easier. The SNS also adds the water reservoir to the mix for a moist cooking environment  more consistent than a water pan under the food.  That water reservoir also allows you to have meat much closer to the heat source without burning than without.
