    2nd gen 40" vs 2.5 gen 30"

    They're tricky about it. I went to the Canadian site a few weeks back, saw the prices, was about to order, and then noticed the small print stating all online prices are in USA. That would have been a shock on the credit card bill.

    2nd gen 40" vs 2.5 gen 30"

    The 2.5 40" is available on Amazon, but at $500 before tax. Bass pro is the only other Canadian retailer I found selling it, and it is $660 after shipping and before tax. I generally just cook for myself and my wife so the 40" for another hundred seemed overkill to me. Edit: $499 cad is $377 usd

    2nd gen 40" vs 2.5 gen 30"

    OK, I will edit my title. I notice no mention of a built in meat probe. That's too bad. I have a meat probe I can use (running the wire through the vent) but with the built in one I figured I could track two different meats at once. So, being a six year old model but larger, would you pay $30...

    2nd gen 40" vs 2.5 gen 30"

    So gen 1 also came with an rf remote? Hmm, does anyone know what gen model 20070311 is? I thought two because it was a remote and the window less30" one home depot added was specified as gen two in the description (this 40 inch with window does not specify the gen). Maybe I'm thinking this is...

    Hello all

    Hi all, I'm new to the forum but not the site as I've lurked off and on for a couple of years. I bought my first smoker two years ago, a Cuisinart electric that was based on masterbuilt. It died after I owned it for 13 months. I tossed it as it was out of warranty and then a short time ago...

    2nd gen 40" vs 2.5 gen 30"

    https://www.homedepot.ca/en/home/p.elec-smokehouse-40-inch--all-ss-wwindow--rf.1000830351.html This is the fourty inch, I believe it is second gen because it uses Rf, not Bluetooth.

    2nd gen 40" vs 2.5 gen 30"

    Hello, Edit: it is a first gen 40" MES, not 2nd. Thanks Bearcarver. I've been planning on getting the 2.5 gen MES 30" from Home Depot once it went on sale but then yesterday Home Depot stopped selling them and replaced them with the 2nd gen 30" models and 1st gen 40" model, 30" no window...

    New MES Bluetooth Digital smoker

    My bad, I wasn't clear. I didn't mean running it at those temps, I meant cooking when the outdoor temp was in that range. Does it still heat up/retain heat when the outdoor temp is low?

    New MES Bluetooth Digital smoker

    Thanks Bear. I'm not quite through the Thread yet so apologies if it's been asked but how does it do at cooler temperatures? Say, 5,10,15 C?

    New MES Bluetooth Digital smoker

    Hmm, when my element went all I could find online was that they were shoddily manufactured (Cuisinart made them based on masterbuilt specs design, masterbuilt themselves didn't make them) and once the element stopped working they were done, nothing you can do due to how they were welded...

    New MES Bluetooth Digital smoker

    One more post asking about the longevity of the smoker :) are those who bought it last year happy with with it? No problems with it dying on them? This is what I'm looking at getting (30" 4 rack variant, as I suspect it will go on sale at home depot for less than the 6 rack variant at bass...

    New MES Bluetooth Digital smoker

    Hi all, I'm looking for a new smoker and this one is top on my list (once it goes on sale). I see a few of you have had it for awhile, any thoughts on it? Happy with the purchase? No problems with it dying on you? . I had a very similar Cuisinart model (looks to be exactly the same as the...
