" ...  After seasoning the smoker, as suggested by manufacturer, and then smoking some burgers (total time the smoker was on was about 4 hours), the coating on the inside of the smoker started to peel off! ... The burgers turned out fine, the smoker works fine, and the temperature gauge was quite helpful.  ...  "

" ...  15 smokes in now the inside sprayed black latex coating but cement stuck or whatever is driping the latex right onto my meat and i have to cover with tin foil always and the tin foil is always covered in the black dripsing of chemicals they sprayed the inside with that cant even handle the temps of a smoker  ...  "
comment
" ...  The smoker legs won't go on. ... The bolts are too large and stripped out when trying to assemble.  ...  "
comment
" ...  The wood chip pan also got really hot and melted the back wall of the smoker where it touched. ... Why put a coating on the inside if it's just going to come off when it gets hot?! ... It was also pretty easy to put together, although it didn't come with any instructions, I just guessed which nut/bolt went with what part.  ...  "
