Pid controllers are excellent for holding accurate temperatures. They adjust feed rates and fan very accurately. Smoke flavor comes from smoldering pellets, caused by fluctuating temperatures. Pid controllers create less smokiness.
Pellet grills are good grills, not much smokiness when grilling. BUT, they stand out when you barbeque things for 3 to 20 hours. It is set and let it go. Just run a thermometer with a remote. I usually put things on the day before and let it go. My master built electric smoker made a little stronger smoke flavor, but I have to feed it wood every hour. Pellet grills you just let it go till the thermometer beeps at you. I use a tp20. It's absolutely cheating. Temps run from 150 in smoke mode to 500+ on high
My pitboss 820fb gets used 2 to 3 times a week. 2 1/2 years in I've had to replace the ignitor and flame pot. I'm using it right now. I use an old shop vac and vac it out one a month to clean it and use a grill brush on the grills and difuser/flame broiler . The grill grates are ceramic coated and don't rust and are as good as day 1. There is a p setting on non pid models, lower means more accurate temps, higher causes more amoke. Flame broilers are used 2 ways. Putting a.sear then slowing the cooker. Or slow cook and then putting a burn on it in a reverse sear. They are much better in not drying out meat when cooking.
You will not regret a pellet grill. I won't be going back. There is a small learning curve but once you figure out what you are doing. They are great. Get the cover.
Hope my beer drinking bbq session helps someone.
If you want some comparisons take a look on bbq forums or on reddit and consider the warranties and what they cover compared to how you plan to use your bbq.

Many of us got the previous model Pit Boss 820 smoker for $225 recently. That was a steal.

It works well and keeps the temp stable. When it's cold it will drift a bit more than a traeger, but not much more than is acceptable for a home smoker imo. I've done several briskets, butts, dozens of racks of ribs at a time for a party (it has 5 huge metal racks in it) and it has performed flawlessly.
Mine has done OK in the rain as well which can be a challenge for some smokers, but I have less surface area facing the rain than this would. Not sure if this one is made the same way, but the hopper steel is all rolled to sheet range away from the cover and the receptacle on mine. I still, however, use a metal sheet pan to cover it because I like to be safe.
I think for the price these are the better value by far.

For those who don't actually mind input and other poeples opinions, here is a great site for smoking food. Link goes to a review of the Traeger Lil' Tex Elite 22 inch.
