For those looking, check the lawn and garden centers, sometimes in the outer sections where the plants normally are. Some stores have pretty much cleared out all their grilling items, others are still working on it.

I've noticed a trend in the BBQ smoker market. Companies are releasing 'smart' smokers with features like automatically brisket feeding, and bluetooth remote monitoring of internal temperatures. The problem is the first generations are horrible. They put in thin sheet metal that rusts out, install plastic fans in 700F+ BBQs, flakey bluetooth hardware that isn't weather or heat resistant, and fail to properly shield and insulate electric components from the heat of the BBQ. So you have a BBQ that rusts out, has melting parts, and 4-5 electric components that constantly fail. I suspect we are 5+ years away from a 'smart' bbq that isn't trash.
At $200 instead of $600 it makes for a good toy. It would be a tictok style challenge to challenge a buyer to research all of it's flaws and impliment hacks to solve them all. Such as painting the sheet metal panels that rust out with quality high temp paint when it's new. Sheilding the electronic components with insulation, and such. It would probably still fail in the end. Too many problems with unclear solutions.
Here's a link to some of the cuts I've done in the past. Quality pellets definitely go a long way to getting a decent bark. I use it probably every other weekend. Not once have I had any issues with it going out and having to reignite manually.
I always empty the burn box/ ash after every use. I keep the hopper loaded even when not in use although there is a way to empty it using the built in mechanism.
Hopper holds about 20lbs so more than enough for just about any smoke at low temps. Ive only used it at temps above 250 a handful of times because it really eats through pellets at higher temps. I keep it covered with a nice cover from Costco anytime it is not in use. So far no rust. I'm in the Midwest. It's worked fine while getting rained on.
Holds temps beautifully within about 5 degrees of what you set it to. Bluetooth works but you need basically clear line of sight. It does not go through walls very well.
I'm happy to answer any specific questions anyone might have.

While it doesn't have that classic pellet smoker look, so I have been very impressed with the results. Only downside so far is the grill heats a bit uneven - which is extremely common with pellet grills. Bluetooth app range is also low (would prefer wifi).
This thing has tremendous build quality, huge hopper, cool features such as a griddle and sear area, good max temps, and a huge cooking area.

I love the food I cook on it and I love the ease of a pellet smoker, but I hate the design of my specific one. It's vertical and cylindrical, so the cabinet's much wider in the middle than the door is. I can't even fit a rack of ribs or a large brisket, and even a large pork shoulder is a pain.
I really want the Pit Boss Lockhart 4 in 1 but I missed it at the one store that dropped and the others nearby are all still full price. My local store has the 4 in 1 Memphis for $200, but as far as I can tell, the smoker component on that own requires wood and not pellets.
If you're going to invest a lot of money in a grill, spend it on a company that specializes on grills. Otherwise you're just throwing your money away.

Heating element, ability to set and keep a specific temperature, ability to feed new pellets etc.
