After having an eye on this Pellet Smoker over the holiday season I was able to snag it on close out for $199... I cannot state just how happy I have been with this purchase. After four separate cooks I've had zero issues thus far. Once I figured out this item is made by Trail Embers I managed to download a copy of the manual and now know where to go to troubleshoot should the need arise.

I bought this 2 weeks ago and it cooks amazing. The box was a little dinged up, and after putting it together, I realized the knob was broke off the temp controller. I though oh know, but after contacting embers grills, they rushed a replacement in 2 days! Other than that, this thing cooks awesome! Couldn't be more pleased!

When I first got it the box was a little banged up but it wasn't bad and the grill was super cheap. I ended up having a bad controller but it was promptly replaced after contacting their support. It's been a while now and it's still working great. Size is much better for the price. Plus you get the fold out tray. Some expensive models don't even have that. Great grill for the value.

I am very happy with this product. The pellet smoker concept is GREAT and this machine is very good and I highly recommend it and pleased I purchased especially for the price. There are somethings I don't care for but they are minor and for the price easily overlooked and my success smoking so far makes them a little mute. 1. there is no seal around the lid so there is smoke escape that I'd rather not have. 2. the hopper needs to be a little bigger. 3. the biggest problem for me is the temp. dial has set temps so if want a different temp I can't get it. This is actually a problem because I like to go lower longer at times and can't. But good product well worth the money.

I have used this grill almost every night since I bought it. Great features and easy to us once you get use to it. No recipes come with it but there are plenty online. I don't think I would go back to a gas grill after using this one. Can't believe I didn't buy sooner.

Although I haven't yet fired it up, I was very impressed with the steel thickness used. Everything fit well when putting it together and instructions were good. The one negative is that I need help to hold things (legs mainly). I could not hold and reach on the fasteners on inside by myself. The price was fantastic for the quality of the product. I am very excited to fire it up and hope it works as good as it looks.

I love the grill. My only complaint is that the hot rod went out the second day I received it and used it. Ive cooked on it twice and thats all. Had to call the company and they are replacing it but I hate to purchase something and then have to fix it two days later. I love the product but that needs to be addressed. Hope it works ok when I get the part.

I bought this grill, put it together which was pretty simple. The next day I started it up and made some very good burgers. Two days later wanted to smoke a turkey and the grill would not come on. Imagine my surprise. Had to call the company for assistance and they shipped me out a new controller panel. I had to put the controller in.without any instructions, and now the grill is working(so far). Very frustrated that I spent $300 on something I had to work on after one use.

This smoker is a great unit for the price, have used it for the past month with no problems and temperature system stays at set temp. The only thing that could improve it would be a bigger hopper for pellets as it only lasts about 5 hour, but smoker needs to be checked at about that time so not that big of an issue.

I was skeptical about the quality of this grill since similar models of other brands were twice the price, but I'm happy to report that this thing is heavy duty! The shopping box arrived fairly mangled! But nothing was damaged. I opted not to pick up in club because it is very heavy and I didn't want to deal with getting it in and out of the car. Assembly took about an hour. I followed another reviewer's suggestion and unscrewed the grate that goes over the hopper to feed in the pellets in case I ever wanted to empty it. We've used it a handful of times and have loved the results for all. If you're in the fence, go for it! You don't regret it!
