If anyone owns this can you tell me what the heckin heck this has in it that justifies the price? I looks just like a model that's a third of the price.

There is an Ironwood 885 that's bigger and $900 too from Ace Hardware. The difference is you have to pick it up vs this being delivered to your house. This is big and heavy and shipping is rolled into the price.
I won't pretend the price isn't ridiculous for Traeger (and most competing "premium" brands) but I was gifted a 650 5 years ago and I've done zero maintenance on it, it sits outside uncovered and exposed in rural NC and it still looks brand new, works perfectly every time and outside of a slight deviation on the reported temperature vs what my probes see, I'm very happy with the "simplicity" of everything.
When I first got it, I despised the fact that I had to connect a grill to wifi, I still hate that it's a hard requirement, but the app control is very useful.
If I got another, I'd go the bigger model, even though it's just me and one other person here, once you get into smoking, you quickly run out of space when cooking for groups (which you'll definitely want to do).
