Darren Middleton I have used this smoker three times in the first four days, smoking brisket, Tri Tip, and chicken wings. I love it.
The temperature control was excellent, so I set up four test probes to measure the temperature in the smoker, see how close it was across the grill, and see how well it correlated to the smoker's controller's temperature probe.
It was excellent, with even heat across the grill (—/+2 degrees) and well correlated to the smoker controller temp probe, which was rarely more than 3-4 degrees difference. However, at the highest smoke level (10), I imagine the temp swings would be wider (even if temporary).
It has a very simple but clever ash removal system: You pull a lever, and all the ash drops out (into a cup), and it takes just 1 minute to change. It also has a smoker box, which is great for adding more smoke via wood or charcoal chunks. My only criticism is that the smoker box is directly under the handle, which makes re-filling it during operation tricky.
I had a PitBoss smoker for a couple of years, but this is next level. Highly recommended.
