I love the ease of use, the sufficent water tray and smoke box. I am cleaning the window after every use, good suggestion from another owner, and - smoking is a pleasant experience when you set it and leave it. The propane usage is low - economical when you do a 12-14 hour butt roast or turkey.
Don’t waste your time with this smoker.
Update: the propane gauge also doesn’t work. I contacted Masterbuilt 4 days ago and they never responded. Their customer service matches the subpar quality of their product
Assembly: Follow the directions!
I rated this 3 stars because it some of the assembly is a real pia! Not a deal breaker - you are getting a LOT of smoker for the money! Take your time. Plan on spending a few hours putting this smoker together. I began by sorting all the hardware and there is a lot of it. I do a lot of mechanical work so every group of nuts, bolts, screws got its own magnetic tray and label. This helps a lot. No trays? Use cereal bowls or something. I installed all sheet metal type screws BY HAND (as in no screw gun, even though I own several), to avoid stripping them out. Even so, I chose to up-size the short ones (maybe #8 x 1/2") to a #10 size. Most parts lined up fairly well.
In the short time I have had this smoker I've done ribs and one pork roast. All came out excellent. If you are new to smoking, seek guidance via the Internet, friends or a good book as this smoker comes with nothing. I was surprised by this, expecting to find at least a basic getting started type booklet. The Masterbuilt website has some good info.
CLEAN THE WINDOW!! EVERY TIME!!
I am NOT a fan of the window and one reason I held off buying this smoker when it first came out was I was hoping for a model without the window. It isn't needed. In fact, visibility drops when the smoke gets going and continues to degrade. After 3-4 hours you can't see much at all. Smokers don't need windows!
I would absolutely buy this smoker again. It is priced well, probably because the customer does all the assembly work! It also works quite well. I have not needed to contact Masterbuilt for anything so far but I hear good things about them. Buy it - you will like it!
