RT 590 or Camp Chef woodwind Wifi 24 w/ sidekick

[noahbaine21]

I simply cannot decide. My GMG that I've ran hard for 8 years died on me a week ago. I'm torn between these 2 grills! I was saving for the smoke fire and that is a disaster so I'm down to these 2 and cannot pull the trigger. I was leaning towards the camp chef but wasn't sure about its build compared to that of the RT 590.

My son bought a brand new Camp Chef:

Big Rec Tec fan here - so that is my vote!

590. You can get a sidekick also and attach to the 590. Seen it done.

PID controller and an extra year warranty on the 590. Other than that, I think you would be well served with either. Good luck on your purchase.

Being a Rec Tec owner I have to say Rec Tec.

But I can't be objective as I have never owned a Camp Chef

Sorry I know not much help.

I went from GMG to a Rec Tec bull. Hands down a much much better grill. It’s warranty, customer service and the way it can hold a temp is very impressive

CC Woodwind Wifi has PID as well, but the extra year warranty is something to consider.

How is Camp Chef's customer service vs Rec Tec's?
