temperature is about 20-25 degrees off. set at 225 but thermometer shows about 202. had to adjust when setting temp. easy to use but app doesn't always work. have to delete and load again. besides that food is great and super easy to prepare
I bought the unit back in May which replaced one of the old 30" model that I had used one the last 5 years. The bigger size is definitely nice...can fit a whole brisket for example and could not do that before without putting something underneath it to bend it. Aside from the larger size the best feature by far is the new smoking box with independent heating element offering 5 temp settings and taking any size or shape from chips to chunks, allowing you to smoke constantly for up to 2 hour without refilling. . The next best new feature is the larger/stronger main heating element which significantly speeds up both pre-heating and re-heating after opening the door. I have recently ordered a number of other add-ons such as the upper broiling element and rotisserie...which worked well for the rotisserie chicken which was able to be smoked and broiled simultaneously.
Was very excited about the new purchase as this is my 3rd one. When I unboxed it the right back was dented and also I was missing a meat probe also the smoke box door leaks smoke and does not seal tight.
Bought this as a birthday present to myself, not overly impressed so far. Arrived with missing and broken parts which took nearly two weeks to be replaced, fairly typical QA from China based manufacturing. The Bluetooth functionality is finicky and the app is not terribly useful. The only test run I was able to make ended up having to move to the oven because the system kept crashing and throwing an error message not covered in the manual, and did not send the alert to my phone. went through wood chips way faster than it should. Door latch is poorly designed and harder to operate than it should be. Display on the unit is difficult to read in daylight. Instructions say to keep it 10 feet away from combustible surfaces but unit only has a 5 foot power cord
We had used this twice and on the second time it presented with an Er r 2 code during the cooking process. (see other reviews). This is not addressed in the manual. There is no resetting it. Upon looking into it this a defect that Master built has not addressed. They provide a number to call and it is only automated and does not address concerns. I have a brand new smoker that does not work at all.
