i purchased same model for myself about 3yrs ago. i purchased 2nd one as a gift for my father. same model and ordered directly from charbroil. size was a big factor. holds enough coals, yet not too much. holds enough food but and easy to regulate temp w no wasted airspace. my father loves his just as much as i love mine ! he's hooked! easy to put together and i recommend using chunks of wood (unsoaked) rather than chips. even 3 yrs later...no rust...i have kept mine in the garage when not in use. easy to clean , move around, maintain and use. awesome product
Bought a few months ago but didn't get to use it until today. Almost immediately the paint/finish started peeling off.....and no the temp is not too high, topped out at about 250°.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We're sorry to hear this. We value you as a Char-Broil customer and want you to enjoy using this offset smoker. Was the inside of the smoker seasoned before the first use? Please follow this link (ow.ly/SktNu) or give us a call at 1-800-241-7548 and we will be able to best assist.
I've had this unit for 6 years and it's never failed me. Only had to replace the smoke box gates once, had held up well with proper maintenance. It's on the smaller side but does well for smoking up to 2-3 pound cuts.
got this smoker for my B'day.. this smoker is great... rain or shine it produces great eats and allows me to control the flavoring, cook time, and how much smokey flavor I want
