We got this and spent about 1 hr assembling it.

The first problem was that it was mising about 3 screws and washers.

I had read some reviews where they complained that in a short time one of the hngles popped off.

After our assembly, we took it out for it's first seasoning run.

Guess what. One of the hinges popped off.

So we took it back and got a refund.

BUt what a waste of time.

We just received our model in the mail, and it is not as big as it says. We bought the larger model for larger turkeys, it said 22x25..it's more like 16x14! We may as well have bought the one for $100 less. We are keeping it because we need it for smoking the Thanksgiving turkey, but we are very disappointed in the size for the price we paid. We will update and let you know how it works. We had the Smokey Mountain series smoker for years but the regulator just blew out, so hoping this model will at least smoke us up some good meats and fish!

We're really happy with this smoker. It was easy to assemble, maintains a constant temperature over long periods (8+ hours), and is easy to clean. Assembly was straighforward and nothing was missing. It is not, however, a huge smoker. The internal "floor area" is 14" x 12". But this is more than enough for most fowl chicken and duck. A goose would be a tight squeeze as would a big Butterball turkey. For the price, I couldn't have asked for more. A very well-built and well-designed unit.

Honest reviews on GrillPro 31845 Heavy-Duty Vertical Propane Smoker

I have been smoking ribs for years using a regular gas grill; this is my first dedicated smoker box. Generally I give it high marks. I can do 4 racks of ribs at one time (more than enough for my needs) if cut into 2 or 3 sections, first. All parts were there and easy to assemble. It is slightly off-square (my assembly?) so the door does not close tightly (small issue). It is a bit difficult to control the temperature as low as I would like (300F) but again, not a big problem. It comes with the best wood tray on the market (as far as I can find). It is 8x8 inches and almost 3 inches deep; stainless steel. The size and depth are important for using "chunks" of wood rather than chips (I always use both) so as to get long lasting smoke. Unfortunately, I cannot find this to purchase a second one, even at Grillpro part sites. Having a second is important to be able to swap in a new tray once the first one is exhausted.

First, it was missing parts (no knobs). The faceplate of the gas supply was scratched. The thermometer was horribly off by 150 degrees. Finally, after the 3rd smoke, it stopped working. The flame just sputtered out. I tried cleaning it to no avail. DO NOT BUY!!!!
