This seems to be a decent model if its your budget. I'd personally try to save up for recteq.
I'm a bit biased being a Recteq owner. The Hey Grill Hey YouTube channel speaks highly of Camp Chef smokers.
Compared to the better brands, the PID controller probably isn't quite as good and the walls/construction is a bit thinner/cheaper, and you miss out on features like cabinets, front shelving, wifi, etc. But you more than get what you pay for with the Camp Chef. Great accessories available, huge hopper, good performance, PID. And the ash cleanout system is honestly great, not even the expensive grills have it.
If you want to make a complete left turn, take a look at charcoal gravity smokers made by Masterbilt. Those seem pretty great; it's an actual charcoal smoker that works similar to a pellet grill.
I own an older camp chef pellet smoker, been going several years now and probably 1k+ lbs of meat smoked. They're workhorses, especially for the money.
Agree that you get what you pay for and if you'd like to splurge, definitely go for a recteq.

My impression from talking to people into pellet grills is either splurge for fully American Made (which RecTec is not) or go with a good value Chonese made like Green Mountain or even cheaper with Camp Chef or Z Grills. (I splurged for a pricey one.)
For the money, this is a solid choice for someone who doesn't want to spend 4x as much for American made.
Spend $200 more and get the sear box. Great addition! Smoking a boneless ribeye than searing it will leave you with no regrets.
