I have, it works fine, just a little tricky to handle wiggly tender racks - with some good gloves it's not an issue.
Yes, I have seen the post of some people having issues. Problem is i feel like unless you spend over 1k you are going to see issues even then you still may. The amount of modification i had to do on my propane smoker is crazy.
Haha not yet. I do see the PG24DLX on amazon for $500. Still doing some more research though.Metsfan,
Unless you find it on sale, the DLX 24 is about $700 and you'd be looking at maybe a couple hundred more for some essential accessories (cover, front shelf, maybe an insulated blanket if you live in the snow belt). The XT 24 is $575 plus accessories. And the SE 24 comes in at $500 plus. All are MSRP.
The SE 24 does NOT come with an upper rack; the other 2 do come with a single rack. My Woodwind came with a double upper rack. Normally you can put 3 racks of baby backs on the main grill and 1 rack on the upper rack in what you're looking at.
If you live near a Cabela's store, you might stop by and check out their pellet grills. They used to be built by Camp Chef but aren't any more. They have a lot of good features and are slightly lower in cost. But I have never seen them rated or talked about on any of the Q forums.
So, have you decided yet?
If it works it works haha. Blanket i might need have to see. But i can always pick it up later.
The main purpose of the insulated blanket is to keep the outside cold air from sucking the heat from the grill. The grill will still work but will require more pellets to burn in order to maintain the grills internal cooking/working temps. When the outside temp gets below about 35, the blanket is a good thing to have. And of course, just about any fire proof insulation material/blanket can be made to work. But I'd rather have the custom fitted one and look cool - don't cha know?
That i understand. Just don't normally cook when its that cold. If I do turkey for thanksgiving then it will be cold. But normally don't smoke in the cold months here. But that may change and i will pick one up.The main purpose of the insulated blanket is to keep the outside cold air from sucking the heat from the grill.

(just trying to add a little humor here and NOT belittling hardhead)
Like I said i'm not worried about fixing things or modifying things I am very handy. Just don't want to be spending more money fixing things. As long as they provide me with what I need that is fine.I think so. I had one very minor issue with mine at delivery and called them about it. They were ready to ship me a complete new grill immediately. I already had it out of the box and assembled and would have had to disassemble and repack it before returning it and I had already cut up the box it came in and tossed it. So I took an engineering look at the problem, tried a couple of ideas and was able to fix the problem. I've called a couple of times since then with questions and they have been very helpful and provided answers immediately. And the best part is that the customer service is NOT off-shore. They are in Logan, UT and they ALL speak English as a first language. How cool is that in today's world?
I'm sure hardhead will disagree.
And I respect that given what he has had to endure. But I would rate them a 5/5 so far.
I have called and emailed for weeks. Finally getting a controller send, for $900 I should not have to fix myself
I understand that, but no product is made perfect and theirs always going to be bad units.
