Warped Heat Defuser - Owned 1 month

Is it normal for the heat defuser to be already warped after 1 month of ownership?

What's the max temp that you've ran it at? There is a simple fix for straightening it out. It involves putting a piece of rebar across the deflector near the firebox side.

I warped one at a high temp. I got it fixed and now I just keep it under 325 with the deflector in.
