Thinking about a Treager smoker, anyone have one?

I borrowed a friends Treager Smoker over the weekend and the meat was very good. I like to cook ribs, pulled pork, brisket. Just wondering if anyone else has one of these and how they like it.

I have a elect. Master Built smoker. Bought it right before the smaller Treager came out. $399 one. I will buy one later. Love to smoke. Brisket, ribs, pork loin.. even pizza and fresh tuna. Treager is on my wish list.

Those ribs look really good, makin me hungry. I have been doing some research on the Treager and they are no longer made in the USA and are being made in China. Sounds like the quality has suffered in the process, but I also know how forums work and people usually post more negative then positive comments.

I have had a Master Built.....Not bad.....Am going to buy a Bradley once we get moved into our new home.....I love the ease of use.....Looked at the Traeger but am not fond of the style or cost for what you are getting.....May even consider the compact smoker from Bradley to take along camping.

I think I have decided on a brand called Smokin Brothers, Pretty much the same grill, but made right in the good ole USA. It also seems to be made better then the Traeger.

I bought a traeger about two months ago. I had several cookers but a guy cant have too many.
I have used it a Bunch, and have been impressed.
Briskets ,butts, ribs have all been excellent. Steaks and chops have been excellent as well.
It has in a short time become my favorite out of my arsenal.

Costco here in the Richmond area has Traeger in their specialty sales. Pretty cool looking.
