Customer Reviews for Traeger Grills - Timberline 1300

My first cook was flawless! Built sturdy (not light) this thing is heavy duty. The multi-level cooking racks are a very nice feature. I was able to put a full packer brisket on the middle shelf with a drip pan under on the bottom shelf. The pellet hopper holds plenty of pellets and the hopper dump is a very cool feature. The controller is easy to use and easy to read. The WiFi lets you control the whole unit remotely. So far so good. Smoked an excellent brisket on its first cook. I’m looking forward to using it some more. (Only two things #1 it needs a light and #2 the wood board is just for show)

Outstanding quality, performance and service

Received my new Traeger Timberline 1300 on a cold December day. Assembly instructions were great. Packaging was excellent. My son and I had it assembled in 90 minutes. Had to call customer service about a WiFi connection issue and the gentleman who assisted me was excellent. Tried it out the next day in low 30 degree temps. Burgers and dogs turned out great. Everything about Traeger is first class, from quality of the product to professional and prompt service. Performance of the smoker and tight temperature control is impressive. Thank you Traeger!

Excellent quality! Heavy duty materials. Very well constructed. Someone did their homework on the design.

Dissapointed

I have had trouble with my touchpad start button from day one; in summary, it has to be worse, before they would send repair parts for a NEW grill. It is a nonresponsive interface issue that occurred immediately at purchase. I work with software and automation for a living, so I know what I am talking about when I say the automation program is poorly written. At the same time, the wifi connection along with the app need large amounts of attention. I fumble with connection issues, and I do this for a living; using a Traeger should be a stress-free and unique experience. This is my second and likely last Traeger, as I see the quality goes down while the prices go up. I built my own controller and program before giving it to my neighbor, and I get to smell my success wafting into my yard every weekend; I should have kept it. I am sure with the wifi connection, Traeger can see how little I use this grill; it is no longer enjoyable.

Near perfect

I love my New 1300 !!! My review would be a perfect 5 star... except for 2 issues I see with the design.
1. No Front Shelf option is available. The 5" SS front is absolutely useless!
2. It only has one Temp Probe port... Traeger could fix this easily by updating the software to work with the Meater wireless probes like the New Timberline XL. Considering how many of these older 1300's are out there - imagine how many more Traeger x MEATER you could sell!!!

I will have this one till I die.

I bought my Timberline 1300 about 7 years ago and you coundn't ask for a better smoker. I had a little issue with it learning how to operate it because u had been using an electric smoker and the board died.
I smoke whatever I want and it always turns out depending on the grade of meat. My wife does not like brisket but when one gets smoked, she's the first one in line.
Keep it clean and replace the parts as needed and you will have smooth smoking. I had the igniter go out and the thermocoupler, replaced them after 6 1/2 years and works like new. Easy for me to replace but you have to pay attention.
