![]() You know, when it comes to electronic equipment, which to some degree is what today's pellet grills are, it is reasonable to expect that at some point in time, in the "near" future, that which is considered "state of the art" today, will be looked at as obsolete up the road. ![]() But when we really get down to it, electronics, and electronic items, are rarely 100% American made these days.įinally, we hear "built like a tank" and other euphemisms. So then what is this likely "foreign", or more specifically Asian part doing in this "American made" product?Īnd so there is a lot of talk about "American made". Even if it's not 100% accurate.Īgain, have a look. I submit to you that hardly anything "electronic" in this day and age, is 100% American made down to it's circuit boards, down to the last wire, down to the last washer.īut stating "American made", is a very good marketing tool for some manufacturers of some products. We've also heard talk about "American made". This smoker is said by the narrator to be 2 years old. There has been talk about "rust" in this thread, and "quality of steel", paint flaking and such.īut as you allude to, issues can happen with anything and from anywhere. If you need to thrash me for it - so be it. Just felt there is another side to this conversation that was missing. I would recommend them to anyone hands down. I did need to reach out to their CS for some questions and they have been insanely responsive and helpful. My experience with the Rec Tec Bull has been excellent to say the least. Just being a consumer without an unlimited budget more focused on getting what works for my needs. I dont have a hang up with where the steel originated so long as it doesn't rust - I dont have rust. As do many people on here who are happy Rec Tec owners. I have absolutely no regret or complaints. I feel I got a very good pellet smoker for the money. I have the "newer" version of the Rec Tec RT700 which only has the door and power coated black - had it almost a year. there are lemon products made by mostly quality companies. There will always be outliers in experience, customer service outcome etc. It was all the options, differences, and costs that drove my decision. it was not a decision maker/breaker for me. there are so many factors that can lead to either. Just sayin it can happen - I dont think there is any smoker out there that cant or wont have an issue or a fire. but I did read of a Yoder back burning into the pellet bin (he had pics it happened, I saw it - and no i dont have the link or reference/link anymore) when I was researching which pellet grill to buy a year ago. ![]() Even some more product suggestions if there are any. Any thoughts, experiences, or opinions would be GREATLY appreciated. I'd love to be able to get as close to my pits as possible so maybe I could purchase an smoking tube or something like that to help. If they could create a hybrid of the two I'd be sold! Right now I'm leaning towards the YS 640 because of the heavy gauge steel durability and it's made here in the USA vs being made overseas with smaller (cheaper) materials. With all that being said I love the Yoder products and durability and the Rec Tec for the 40 lbs hopper and the (from what I've read) smoke flavor the cooker can create it as close to a pit as any pellet smoker can. I've been doing a ton of research and for now I've narrowed my decision down to two brands and my price range is roughly $1,800.00 at the max. Now I have a newborn and my 4 year old so my time tending my smokers are limited for the next few years so the pellet smoker seems like the perfect solution to my smoking habit. I've been considering purchasing one for awhile now because of the convience of setting and forgetting with a busy schedule. Howdy everyone I need some help deciding on a pellet smoker. ![]()
