This is my second Masterbuilt 30" smoker. I bought the same one I had before because I really like the way it works and is big enough for what I want to do, although this past weekend I could have used a second one but that is only because I catered my son's wedding. Made 4 8# pork butts and 200 poppers I made it work. I personally like that it has a solid door and not a window I feel it keeps the temp better with an insulated door. The only thing I am not 100% happy with is the chip tube is quite a bit smaller then my older one.
