Z GRILLS Wood Pellet Grill Smoker with PID 2.0 Controller, 459 SQ.IN, 450°F Max Temperature, 8 in-1 BBQ Grill, LCD Screen, Meat Probes, Rain Cover, Backyard Camping Bake and Roast, 450E

Great deal and works really well. I've used costco pellets and pit boss pellets with no problems. This smoker is better and cheaper than the trager version for the same size I assembled it in about a hour and wasn't very difficult of do. It takes 10-15 minutes for the temperature to stabilize and gives a good amount of smoke. I've cooked brisket, chicken, ham and jerky on it. All of it has turned out well. Cleaning is easy enough just vacuum out the ash and wipe down the grill. I do put tin foil over the heat deflector to make things easy

So far so good. I recieved this as an early mother's day gift and I'm already in love. The flavor isn't as good as a traditional smoker but it's a worthy trade off considering you don't have to baby sit this it's more a set it and forget it. Assembly was easy after I realized the real directions where in the manual. Dont do what i did and use the quick assembly directions and then have to start iver to put in all the washers. USE THE MAUAL DIRECTIONS NOT QUICK ASSEMBLY DIRECTIONS. Quick assemble directions are missing steps and do not label the parts and bits. Grill comes up to temp quick and outside rain doesn't seem to affect the temp control. The hopper is big enough to smoke a brisket at 225 for 14 hours it only went through half the pellets. This grill.is beyond functional and had supassed all my expectations minus smoke flavor. I used this grill for a total of 22 hours at 225 and will need to refill before my next cook. We got this on sale but I would absolutely have paid full pri w for this grill it's a great value. Advice, use Manuel instructions, and always start grill on smoke before use. You will need to vaccume out the ash before each use and need to use the shut down option to ensure the life expectancy of the grill. The warenty is great at 3 years and if you can get an extended for a total of 6nyears to cover all issues.

I'm a beginner at smoking and I wanted something that won't brake the bank but something top of the line it was very easy to put together toke me around 45 mins when it came down to using it very easy heated up quickly and keep temp. I keep it in my garage when not using it's not heavy and good design legs are strong don't fell like there going to brake off when moving around. The amount of smoke this little thing put out is crazy and the flavor it put in the meat

This is a very heavy duty pellet smoker. Even the lid is thick and solid so it doesn't bend when you open it. It took a little bit to assemble but it was not terrible. After looking at many other smokers which were much more expensive, we decided on this model. We like the size because for my wife and I it just right. We really bought it because we enjoy smoke beef brisket and it does a great job cooking it. It came with a very thick cover and also has 2 temperature probes that we use each time. I love that it has a digital screen that is easy to read from far away. The 2 things I wish would be different is the probes are not wifi with an app that I could read on my phone without having to go to the smoker to look, especially at night if it is a long smoking time. I often wake up from bed to go and check it. Also the feeder that feeds the pellets into the heater is a little louder than I would like. It sounds like a loud sewing machine when it feeds the pellets. I wrote to ZGrills and they gave me many things to try but it still sounds the same. My friends Traeger is much quieter than mine, even though ZGrill makes many of the parts for Traeger. But other than that it is a heavy well built smoker that should last for years.

My husband absolutely loves it. Works fantastic. Great purchase
