Great smoker for beginners! I’ve tried several smokers in the past that didn’t hold up, but this one has been perfect every time. It’s easy to use, even if you’re new to smoking, and delivers consistent results. I’ve used it multiple times already, and the food comes out great every time!

I have used this alot so far for smoking salmon. Smokes much longer than the one I had. Larger wood chip tray than the one I had. I like that you can set the temperature lower than I am used to. Works much better at the lower temperature.

Bought this for my husband. He is a beginner and so far it has done really well! It’s easy for him to use, and the food tastes great! Unfortunately it’s hard to get the right temp in the cold weather which i have discovered is a common thing with any smoker! Overall great buy!

25 years of competition championship bbq cooking! Certainly cooking would be an embarrassment! I am pleasantly surprised! It’s small , but is safe and suits me in my retirement! Easy to operate and reasonably doesn’t get hot as a grill! It was very painful to put together! One you get started , it’s a learning curve! They say don’t soak the wood chips and I disagree! I also use four briquettes on each corner! The smoke box is painful to move in and out and you might to want to reload it during cook! It’s dependable! Haven’t caught on fire yet!

It came here with a dented door. And then found out that it's outdated. And you can't get replacement foil pans. Totally discussed I'll never buy pit boss again

After using for a few months I find it to be sturdy and it functions very well for the most part. Out of the box it was easy to assemble for someone with a bit of a mechanical background. There is much about this unit that i like; easy to access wood chip box, good door latch, good temperature range, to either smoke, grill or roast your meats, and/or veggies. Thermometer conveniently located on door. I have smoked Boston Butt, chicken, and baked potatoes, all to my families satisfaction. My one minor issue is the touchy burner control. This unit has a two stage burner. Obviously for two different temperature ranges. There is no indication on the adjustment knob to let you know when either one or both burners are ignited. The flame is impossible to see with the wood chip box in place and the door closed. One must watch the built in thermometer for a good while after start-up to see that the correct temperature is maintained. Once it is stabilized it will hold the temp., at least the temp. I use most for smoking, 225 F. I mention this so maybe the designers will take note and make modifications for future models. All in all it is well built, sturdy, and I look forward to many years of service. I will mention that for years I avoided smokers with glass in the doors, as it don't take long to cloud up. After using this model with glass in the door I find that after smoking, a quick cleaning of the glass from the interior side with paper towels and glass cleaner keeps it clear and ready for the next use. I would recommend this smoker to any grill master or novice that loves smoked meat, fish and veggies.

I use my smoker 3-4 times a week. Good quality and build. Easy to use. Temp control runs 20-30 lower than my gauges but I think it’s due to the position on the smoker. Easily holds 12 lb brisket on a shelf. Cleaning is super easy. Great value and would buy again!

So of course to start with its a cheap smoker so you have to accept it won't be the best thing out there but you still expect certain things.Cons1. The door came scuffed up yet the box was perfectly fine...either the quality control at pitboss is horrible or this is a return masking as new.2. the door seal was a joke, leaks everywhere. Going to try and fix this with a lavalock gasket3. Just might be my preference but I wish the wood chip holder opened at the handle so you didn't have to completely remove it to reload chips.4. Grease leaked down onto the wood chip holder, missed the water pan all together and crusted up on top of it which cause a bit of an issue pulling the tray in and out...going to investigate how that happened.5. The gas knob is very cheap plastic.Positives1. I felt assembly was easy and the instructions were correct.2. Even with the seal leak the temperature was controllable for the most part3. Decent space inside for the small form factorOverall it should work for me for the time being and is an ok smoker for a beginner....I do see why people pay a lot for the great smokers though.
