" ... So many everyday things are great to cook in a smoker, such as pizza or salsa! ... "
" ... The neiborhood is smelling great!😍 It is nice seeing your food cook! ... "
" ... My smoked chicken is wonderful ... "
" ... bought this smoker to smoke my homemade sausage, works very well. ... "
" ... So far I’ve smoked pork, chicken and beef with restaurant quality results. ... "
" ... I have cooked ribs, chicken, burgers, tenderloins, salmon and everything turned out great. ... "
" ... From all research on smoking time, I found that it would take 5-6 hours for a 3.5 pound roast. ... So, I went to plan B for dinner. ... As it is, I would be hesitant to attempt cooking any food in it as drying out one pork roast was enough. ... "
" ... My family & I went in on this smoker for my husband's birthday, we had the family over tonight for dinner & smoked a pork roast in the new smoker, perfect pork, great investment, I would recommend this smoker to anyone! ... "

" ... I was able to return the unused cover and wood chips . ... "
" ... I used the smoker twice and then it broke. ... After second use, the back panel with the handle broke away from the body of the smoker. ... "
" ... Yet another broken part. ... "
" ... We discovered item had 2 different parts broken while we were putting it together. ... "
" ... The cylinder to add the wood chips was sloppily welded, so has come off due to the bad weld job. ... Pretty annoying to see certain places on product were made shoddy on an otherwise solid product. ... The metal slide that holds the water bowl also came off due to the bad weld job. ... "
" ... There was a pop rivet inside the sealed cover to the power terminals - lord knows how that didn’t cause a short circuit and start a fire. ... So I took off the pop rivets off the sealed back plate to see if I could determine what the issue was. ... "
" ... There were scratches and rub marks in the stainless steel finish. ... I found in several spots inside and out of the smoker where the foam insulation leaked at the seams. ... There are a few bumps in the metal also. ... "

" ... I have washed the grates in the dishwasher and the water pan and cleaned up great ... "
" ... I complained that the supplier for their grills left a remarkably thin chrome coating that very soon wore thru with standard cleaning. ... "
" ... Unless you are the type of person who will definitely spend the time and effort to clean it thoroughly after each use, it's a waste of $100 for the window. ... "
" ... There are a lot of little parts as expected but they clean easily when used and we’ve fed many people using this. ... "
" ... It's easy to clean and does it's job. ... "
" ... It fogs up heavily, so if you want to see inside to your grub, also while making sure you have clean racks, have BBQ cleaner handy. ... "

" ... I cooked a pork loin Yesterday and it turned out great, the remote control made it so easy ... "
" ... I like the fact that I can monitor and adjust the system from the House with the remote. ... "
" ... Pretty good for the price, good quality and heat isolated, the remote control is a very appreciated plus, in the cons ,the heat distribution is irregular, hotter in the bottom and colder in the top so if you are smoking the same kind of food you have the risk to have uncooked food in the top and charred ones in the bottom, at the end I have to open the smoker and rotates the position of the grills, so heat is lost for a while. ... "
" ... Especially the remote! ... "
" ... Oh, the remote control worked great! ... The remote allowed us to check the cooking temperature as well as the meat thermometer temperature. ... "
" ... I love that it comes with the RF remote. ... On the RF remote hit meat probe, then light. ... "

" ... No problems for a couple of years then the element stuck on without the control panel on. ... "
" ... After 6 months the buttons on the smoker don't work. ... "
" ... After using the smoker once more, the control panel stopped working and became unreadable. ... "

" ... I like the smoker because in even in winter, I just partially open the garage doors and smoke all year long. ... "
" ... Again, do this at your own risk: I put my smoker right inside the door of the garage so it's protected from the wind on 3 sides (I have machine shed type doors that slide side to side, not up and down), and I opened the door a bit to let the smoke out and some cold air in. ... "
" ... We've just been taking the temp when opening the door so far. ... "
" ... Same with window, but its built like a little submarine with its door so no heat escapes through it. ... "
" ... I live in a condo and run a extension cord and put it right out in front of my door. ... "
