I put it together (My wife went out and bought the gas line to connect to a propane tank)
the boy was excited
Father's day we cooked a rice dish with shrimp and squid and some assorted leftovers. A video follows, most memorable for the boys comments on labor relations and poisonous frogs as much as for the cooking commentary.
But first:
Rice... short grain bomba rice
Parsley, garlic and red pepper
Grated tomato (I covered it against flies and missed sauteeing it, which should be done to decrease water content)
Green beans cleaned and chopped
Shrimp, squid and red pepper.

I love the new setup, bigger pan. Thanks to the family for the present

That paella cooker looks to be on the unstable side.. it doesn't look like it would be stable with a large pot on it for boiling shrimp or say, making a batch of home brew.
A cajun cooker might be better.
I wouldn't say it is unstable, but I wouldn't put a big pot on it either, you can buy an attachment that gives you a raised edge (probably just for such a thing) but it would limit your paella pan size. A cajun cooker would probably work fine as you point out, (pretty much the same thing just lower to the ground)
