    Recteq 590 Owners

    590 owner here and if you want the bad... just search this forum and Google for broken app notifications and other app related issues. If you have no desire to utilize the app then it's a great smoker built very well but maybe slightly overpriced for what you get. If you have a desire to use the...

    Conflicted Newbie

    If notifications are important to you (and they should be since you're paying a hefty price tag for an alleged "smart" smoker) you should do some searching on Recteq and they're known and widespread notification issues. They are ongoing and all but break the device if you value interaction via...

    Brand New Recteq Competition Cart for RT-590 Stampede Smoker (Northern Colorado)

    Nope, long gone.

    Buying new pellet smoker

    Until Recteq can figure out their broken notifications issue I can't recommend them in good conscience. If that's something that's important to you I would look elsewhere.

    Camp Chef thermo winter Blanket

    It's a trade-off. While magnetized cobalt will withstand higher temperatures it's also not as strong. So you may or may not experience issues in high-wind situations. I wouldn't trust magnets for anything critical when it comes to contacting a smoker drum as the heat can create issues. They also...

    Camp Chef thermo winter Blanket

    You do realize that heat and shock are both common adversaries to magnetized metals, right? I mean, it's like saying that they expect us to get water all the way to 212 degrees just to get it to boil.

    Looking Into A New Smoker....

    Don't forget that this all began when jcam222 chose to read something into a post I made that wasn't there and didn't let it go. That was over until forktender came along insinuating that I'm some sort of n00b to the world of smokers who didn't know anything and was soft as Charmin because I...

    So others are allowed to give their opinions (even if they're being aggressive towards me in the process)... just not me nor can I defend myself. Got it.

    Looking Into A New Smoker....

    Wrong. You assumed this is my first smoker and I know nothing of the art prior to choosing the smoker I chose for reasons I find important. I don't buy smokers to please you so I'm not sure why everyone has to share your opinion. We get it, you fell your own trees by hand to create the fuel you...

    Lots of assumptions in this post.

    Looking Into A New Smoker....

    If you end the statement at that point... yes. It removes ALL context though which is exactly what's required to put this teenager hissy fit on me as if I started it to try to deflect from what you attempted to start entirely unprovoked. What I suggested was to "read more recent posts" which is...

    Looking Into A New Smoker....

    Wrong once again? When was I wrong the first time? I'm confused. The purpose of my post was a simple exercise to explain why one device may offer advantages over another that other users may find valuable. I didn't realize I was talking to the only person alive who has never seen the value in...

    Or how 'bout you read my post again w/o the negative tone you decided to add to it for whatever reason and address me with the same level of respect you're demanding when I never accused you of anything. Maybe that's just "how you roll on this forum" huh?

    Making cheese is a relatively simple process too but my guess is you buy your cheese from the store due to time and convenience. Same concept. Nobody says I can't still drink a beer and eat some apps though but now I can focus more of my attention to those critical tasks.

    Read more recent posts before you parrot what was a strong vote in the past. They've got a deal breaking issue occurring more recently and their response to fix it has been very subpar to say the least. Excellent customer service my Boston Butt.

    Looking Into A New Smoker....

    Thank you. A good feeling it is not. There's been quite a few over on the Recteq forum with similar experiences so it's definitely not an isolated incident. The first time it happened & they told me it was a one-off I wanted to believe them. It's clearly an ongoing issue though & one they...

    Not too long ago I would have supported this post. Now, I can't. As much as I wanted to love this Recteq RT-590 I can no longer recommend Recteq in good conscience. I really really liked this thing when I first got it and I saw what all of the rave reviews were about. It was the significant...

    Trying to choose smoker for husband. Is it worth waiting for Memorial Day or Father's Day sales?

    Not too long ago I would have supported this post. Now, I can't. As much as I wanted to love this Recteq RT-590 (slightly smaller version of the RT-700) I can no longer recommend Recteq in good conscience. I really really liked this thing when I first got it and I saw what all of the rave...
