[QUOTE="DiB14-SAFD, post: 16952631, member: 179425"] Good deal on that one. I have the 1150 and have been pretty happy with it. Couple things I have noticed on mine. 1. It doesn’t like cheap pellets, does much better with traeger pelllets than the off brands I have used. 2. Watch your temps and hot spots. The temp gauge gets heat leakage due to position and can be way off from actual inside temps. There is a couple of companies that sell a block off plate that mounts below the temp gauge to remedy this. I use foil and it helps a bit. 3. The motor is not mounted and simply wedges itself against part of the metal frame to keep from spinning on the auger. There is also an aftermarket part to remedy that. 4. It actually doesn’t produce that much smoke imo. I bought a smoke tube and run that in conjunction most of the time. I have had mine for two years and for the price I am happy. The app has improved immensely and I have only had one auger jam(cheap pellets). [/QUOTE]
