So there are tons of reviews out there comparing the 2 however, the couple primary differences are:

1) Soome say the Rec Tec gives smokier flavor due to exhaust system of one compared other. This has to do with how the smoke is exhausted however, i believe the Traeger comes with an ultra smoke option which ultimate lowers the temperate so the smoke has more time to "soak" into the meat.

2) The materials of the Rec Tec are just plain better. Stainless steel all around. Traeger powder coats steel. Now if you cover the Traeger and it's under something (patio, etc.) protected from elements, this may not be as big of deal but I think the materials allow Rec Tec to retain heat better.

3) Pellet hopper is bigger on Rec Tec. You buy a 20 lb bag of pellets and can only put 18 lbs in the Traeger. Doesn't make much sense since Traeger sells 20 lb bags. This may be moot as you likely arent using 18 lbs in one cook (low and slow is like 1lb an hour); however, who wants to keep an almost unfilled bag of pellets around

4) The Rec Tec (while the same number) is a bigger grill. The Rec Tec number system is just the flat large surface without the "second shelf". Traeger size includes the second shelf.

That being said, Traeger's auger system is on point. Probably one of the best out there. Also, Traeger can easily empty the hopper via a flap vs. Rec Tec which you have to "scoop" back out.

That being said, I almost bit on this smoker on Black Friday but decided against. For this cost, I may be a buyer

Overrated and made in China. When my pellet grill needs replacing it won't be with a Traeger. Between not being made in America, them saying using any pellets other than Traeger will void your warranty, and the Traeger pellets being random hardwood flavored with oil I don't ever plan on buying any of their grills.

Recteqs have all stainless barrel and internals. The steel gauge is pretty thick too.

I have a Rt-700 and it's a seriously heavyweight, solid piece of equipment. It's noticably more robust than my Weber Genesis grill. The lid is super heavy.

I've kicked the tires, so to speak, on the Traegers I see at Costco and Lowes. They are super flimsy and even janky compared to my Recteq. Considering their premium price, they do not in any way feel like a premium product to me.

I'd probably spend $200 more and get a Recteq RT-590. Much better build quality than Traeger.
Cons, no traeger sticker. Pros, get to grab the bull by the horns

Yeah when I was looking into buying a pellet grill earlier this year, I initially started looking at Traegers. They are the most famous, and I thought they were a very premium product, so that's what I figured I'd get. I figured I would just get one from Costco when they go on sale.

Anyways, once I started looking into things, I decided to either get a Recteq or Grilla. I decided to go with the Recteq since they seem heavier duty and more robust than the Grillas. More stainless steel with the Recteq too.

But yeah, it does seem that Grilla makes a great pellet grill at a good price. They are just a bit cheaper than Recteq too.
I agree. I saw my first Recteq the other day in person and the thing was built like a tank. It reminds me of my made in America Weber Genesis back in the day. As for the Grilla or the RT, I don't think you can go wrong with either one of them. Great support and customer service.

Great deal for a Traeger. I love mine, but I have one with the Super Smoke feature which this one does not.
Some people have been throwing smoke tubes in for more smoke. Just a tip for others.

Yup, that's the Genesis that I have, an older stainless S-310 with the knobs on the right side shelf, back when it was still made in America. I would say my old Genesis definitely seems stronger than the new ones I see at the store. I guess the new ones use thinner gauge steel?

Anyways, I would say the RT-700 still seems quite a bit more robust than my Weber Genesis.

You are correct, probably more robust it just reminded me of how beefy the old Genesis felt. This one was a Bull, and it was huge! Only problem is I have yet to eat off of one of them. :-)

Can you grill pros give me a suggestion for a regular grill? Pellet grills are meant for smoking and slower cooking, right?
I currently have an aging 3 burner Weber and am ready to upgrade.

I know its not on the same level as a higher end pellet grill but I picked up a Camp Chef 30and Sportsman's sent me a 20% off coupon which made it a super Slick deal. $449 on sale and then rec'd another 20% off that price!

I jiust thought the Trager wasn't that much better to spend the extra cash

I have about $500 in gift cards from home Depot, also about as much in rebates from Menards. I am willing to spend another 300 to 500 on top of this. What would be the best option for me? Definitely looking for a grill with Wi-Fi option for temperature changes and notifications. Thank you in advance grill gurus!
