Talk about set it and forget it, the only times i needed to check on this thing was when i mopped the brisket throughout the cook process.

Price


This was way too pricey for these problems that render it useless.


Even tho amazon took off so much on my total price,i don't like false advertising.


I was worried about the price but after using it well worth it.


It is a investment at this price range of grill so the extra upgrades will be good.

It gets to temps very quickly and maintains the temp better than anything i’ve owned.

Packaging/appearance


Bigger than i thought and extremely well packed.

Competitiveness


The 850 and 1050 have addressed the design flaw of the 800 which was the giant vent slit in the back.


I've never had a better grilling experience than these masterbuilts.


I am using kingsford brand charcoal as i found other brands to not properly drop down in the gravity fed hopper.


) honorable mention: the oklahoma joe tahoma was so terribly bad that i took it back to lowe's after just one grill.
