I watched a Kosmos Q video on it the other day, looks like a great way to get more people into smoking.

I am living in an apartment atm. You think it'd be alright on a balcony? I have the room but I'm worried about the ashes.

I think it would be fine on a balcony. You'd also be fine with the ashes as long as you can dispose of them, you don't have to deal with them until the smoker has cooled down.

So are you just getting flavor from charcoal smoke? Can you put wood in it?

I use charcoal and you can add wood chunks, you can put them in the charcoal hopper or ash bin.

It's a very impressive smoker. It burns really clean, is very efficient, cooking temps remain stable (mine was between a degree or two), and you get a nice, smooth, and deep smoke flavor. I'd recommend lump charcoal, with wood chunks going in the ash pan. This way you can control the amount of smoke and wood consumption. You can also use a natural briquette in lieu of lump, but keep an eye on it because of the amount of humidity that's being trapped in the charcoal chute.

I'm reviewing my lease for grill restrictions and have googled the local fire code. That being said, this complex is rife with charcoal, pellet, and gas grills. Not that I'm jumping off a bridge with everyone else.

If you just put wood in the ash pan it does catch well enough to overpower the charcoal smoke and impart flavor?

Yes. The charcoal is your primary heat source, and the wood is really just secondary heat and is your primary flavor.

Not gonna lie, the reviews make me want to get one.
