Youtube assembly instruction video.

Seems to be a large sized mid quality pellet grill for a cheap price. Assembly instructions were included but there is an assembly video here: https://youtu.be/10VAiAxpL4w

Oakford 875 smoker

Easy to assemble. Easy setup to season and get started cooking. Temperature control is stable and first cook was pork steaks that were cooked just great.

Dean B, thank you! Easy assembly, a smooth seasoning process, stable temperatures, and perfectly cooked pork steaks on the very first cook is an outstanding debut for a pellet smoker. We are so glad it delivered right out of the gate. Please call us at 1-800-913-8999 to register your warranty. Here is to many more great smokes!

2 Down, Many More To Go!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I cooked on my smoker twice already and love it! The temperature swings are minimal and actually pretty accurate and the pellet hopper easily ran for 15 hours without having to replenish the pellets! Overnight smoke went off without any issues!

EXCELLENT BUY!!!

EXCELLENT SMOKER/GRILL!! I've had this a couple months and have nothing but great to say!! Perfectly smokes, and turn up to 500° and it grills perfect!! Easy Cleaning, nice finish that wipes right off. big storage for pellets, and a durable cover that blacks all the weather. This is the total package for a reasonable price. I was blessed to find this with $100 off promotion at Sams, so I only paid $399!!! I order my hardwood pellets from Sams at $11 a bag and they burn perfect. I even got two food-grade 5 gallon buckets that seal tightly for storage of pellets for $7.00. I LOVE SAMS!!! ❤️

PAMELA, thank you so much! Perfect smoking, great grilling up to 500 degrees, easy cleaning, large pellet storage, a durable cover, and scoring it at $100 off is about as good as it gets. Your pellet storage tip with the sealed food-grade buckets is genuinely brilliant and we know other owners will appreciate it. Please call us at 1-800-913-8999 to register your warranty. Enjoy every smoke!

Does Everything!

The Oakford 875 Pro is hands down the best outdoor cooking appliance I have ever purchased. The build quality is very good, and it is sturdy. I have cooked your backyard staples like, ribs, burgers, brats and they are great, but one of our family favorites is chicken breast. We also love smoking/grilling things like frozen pizzas and even apple pies. I love trying new food in it every chance I get.

Awesome Smoker

We gave this to my husband as an early Father's Day gift and he loves it. Very pleased with the quality and very easy to put together.

Awesome Product. If you love smoked meats and outdoor cooking, the Oakford 875 Pro is a solid investment. Its generous capacity, reliable temperature control, and authentic wood-fired taste make it a grill that can elevate any backyard barbecue experience.

Am Excellent, Reliable Smoker!

​I recently purchased the NexGrill Oakford 875 Pro, and after putting it through its paces, I am incredibly happy with this grill/smoker. My family is going to enjoy a lot of great food from this in the future! ​Assembly %26 Setup ​Clear Instructions: The manual was very easy to follow, which made the setup process seamless. ​Solo Assembly: It took me about 45 minutes to assemble the entire unit completely by myself. ​Performance %26 Cooking ​Fast %26 Stable Heat: The grill heats up very quickly and maintains my selected temperature exceptionally well. ​First Cook Success: The day after assembly, I smoked some baby back ribs and hot dogs, and everything came out fantastic. ​Massive Pellet Hopper: I absolutely love the huge pellet hopper capacity. You don't have to constantly worry about refilling it during long cooks. ​Note on Probes: I didn't use the included meat probe, but only because I prefer using my own wireless probes. ​Cleaning %26 Maintenance ​Clean-up was incredibly easy, which is a massive plus for a pellet grill of this size. ​⚠️ One Minor Critique ​Lid Clearance: Keep an eye on your forearms when operating the lid. If you aren't careful, it's easy to accidentally burn your wrist while opening and shutting it. ​The Verdict ​If you are looking for a reliable, steady smoker that feeds a crowd and doesn't require a headache to assemble, the Oakford 875 Pro is a great choice. Highly recommended!

Hurley, thank you for this incredibly thorough and well-organized review! Clear instructions, a smooth solo assembly, fast and stable heat, and a pellet hopper big enough for long cooks without constant refilling are all things we are genuinely proud of. Your note about lid clearance near the forearms is a great safety tip we will make sure reaches our team. We are thrilled the baby back ribs were a hit on the very first cook. Please call us at 1-800-913-8999 to register your warranty. Here is to many more great smokes for your family!

Looks good!

I give it 4 stars just because is mandatory to complete the registration and haven’t really used it yet. But overall, it looks good and was easy to set up! Some details on the process for the “before first use” are a little confusing and contradictory to some YT videos I’ve watched, but for now… It was a great buy for a first smoker.

Laura-<br /><br />Copilot said:<br /><br />Thank you for your feedback. We&#39;re very sorry to hear about your experience, especially since this grill was a gift and your husband&#39;s first pellet grill. We understand how disappointing it must have been to have the controller fail when you were excited to use it for the first time.<br /><br />We apologize for the frustration caused by the lack of replacement controller availability.

While we understand that returning the grill may be the most convenient solution in your situation, we recognize how inconvenient and disappointing this experience has been.<br /><br />If you have not already completed the return, we encourage you to contact Nexgrill Customer Service at 1-800-913-8999. Our team would be happy to review your case and determine whether any additional support options may be available.<br /><br />We appreciate you choosing Nexgrill and regret that your first experience did not meet expectations.
