    I have been looking to upgrade my brewing setup. As of now, I do a three-tier gravity system with a ladder, a chair, and then the kettle on the floor.
    Looking at the available options it seems (as is the case with all brewing gear) that brewing sculptures are way overpriced. I found this on amazon:

    and although not made specifically for brewing, seems like it could work. This only has two tiers and two burners. Do you guys think it could work? Maybe using a pump to move stuff around? Any thoughts??? I would be totally fine to keep using a cooler as my mash tun.

    You could build your structure out of wood with casters and mount burners on that. I like gravity over pumps.

    What size batches are you brewing?
    BTW, a friend of mine is brewing with this set up and is happy with it, especially for the cost. 5 and 10 gallon batches. You'll need a pump.

    I brew 5 gallon batches. How would I use the pump? Could you walk me over his process?

    Pumps are serious over-kill for 5 gal batches IMHO.
