I have a traeger and have had zero issues. It needs to be cleaned and vacuumed out about every 2 or 3 cooks.

I purchased 2 Pit Bosses in the past and ending up taking both back for a refund. Absolutely the worst customer service and pieces of junk I ever purchased. After much research, I bought a Green Mountain Daniel Boone and love it.

Rectec,2 BGEs and a weber table top. If abundance of wood was free around me I'd drop the coin and get on Aaron's list for his stick burner.

I have one that uses the wood chips. I like it set it / forget it.

I have a Pitt Boss Pro and have had 0 issues. A buddy has one and it has given him trouble from the start. Someday I want to upgrade to a Pitts and Spitts. Top of the line but expensive.

After much research, I bought a Green Mountain Daniel Boone and love it. Just bought a Daniel Boone 1-2-21, electrical wire connection went bad, under warranty so got a replacement then the igniter has already gone out, its under warranty so I ordered a replacement and they are months out. So I'm having to light my pellets manually with a torch, not a big issue other than that, I love it.

I have had a Pit Boss 820 for about 2 years. If it goes bad today I would buy another ASAP. Love it.

I bought a Pitt Boss a year ago and for 6 months it worked great. It is now in the dumpster. I will say they are the biggest POS out there. I am going to pull the trigger on Yoder or RecTec today or tomorrow. I can get the Rectec today or put a deposit down on the Yoder and wait 4 Months.

One of the things we have figured out on the PittBoss Pro's is you have to clean the thermostat often. The one we have at the ranch would catch fire and blow. Replaced the Thermostat and it works fine now. On the newer Pitt Boss Pro's its a easy fix/replacement.

I have a Pitboss 820 I got for Christmas and I like it. I have used it 15-20 times. It is no replacement for my old stick burner as far as taste goes, but I can't get myself to spend all day tending to a brisket on the stick burner any time soon. The sldiing plate feature is kind of a waste-- it needs to be cleaned often to be able to use it.

I have a Louisiana 900 and it's been smoking for 7 years without an issue. I didn't want to pull the trigger but I'm sure glad I did. My small grill is a 1972 PK, best little grill ever!

Get the Yoder, I doubt there is a better pellet grill out there, now I did not say that there was not one as good, I said better, now my butt should be covered.
