I have a couple friends who love their Traegers. I almost bought one, but I refuse to buy something that will live outdoor, and is not stainless steel. Traeger was built in the US, but no longer. Now they are made in China. Cheap and tinny in comparison.

I'm looking at a smoker now. Saw one at the local Sam's Club. Stainless steel, Bluetooth. .. Under 400 bucks.
