Give Rec Tec a look also I would suggest. Traeger is the company that got me looking into pellets grills and through lots of research, somehow I found Rec Tec and almost a year later, I couldn't be happier.I bought a Traeger last year when Home Depot was blowing them out. I ended up having issues with the flame going out and the pot overfilling if I was trying to run it lower than 250 for any decent length of time. They provided me a Pro Controller for free under warranty and it's worked great for the last two cooks running at 225. I was ready to dump it on Craigslist. Right now I'm content. If it starts giving me problems again, I'm just buying a Weber SmokeFire.

The Weber SmokeFire does look very interesting and I will be watching when people get them and start using a lot. I've always been a Weber fan and cooked on a gensis gasser for years.
I would just wait to see how some "real" "real" use is with the Weber. I've watched the videos from the BBQ guys that got to do a test run and it looks impressive but remember this is with a brand new grill. Personally, I'd want to wait 6 months to a year.The Rec Tecs are nice, but I was set on a Yoder YS640 until I saw what the Weber could do for the price.
