I bought this smoker and made some amazing things. But in a couple of months the digital control panel began to fail. It cuts out sometimes in the middle of a smoke and sometimes it just won't even turn on.
Bought a second one and the same thing happened. Now I have 2 junk smokers.
I love the port on the side of the smoker where chips are added.
I want an analog smoker with the chip port on the side but that's not an option. 
I guess my next smoker will have to be another brand.
