Very little building compared to my previous timberline. Love the new controller and NO MORE TIN FOIL!

This is the best grill that I’ve ever used. The food that I’ve made on the grill so far is outstanding! It’s the best steaks, chicken and burgers I’ve ever made and I’ve made a lot of them.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Wonderful or your baking dinner in the oven.

I purchased this grill two years ago and it has been 90% wonderful and 10% absolute nightmare. When it works, it’s a dream. When it fails, it is absolute and a surprise. It has ruined more than one cook due to its inability to actually cook.
The system is meant to be intuitive. It is far from that when it comes to its own wear. With a two year burner fail rate…it should be a recall or auto ship.

I have the original Timberline XL and love it, it's massive and works great. My one complaint is that it only has one probe. This new one looks amazing and I am enjoying reading all the reviews. I will likely upgrade and give my current one to my brother. I was wondering though, it seems like a current trend with some other pellet grill manufacturers is to add a built in wood chips burner box to add additional smoke flavor. Does Traeger have any roadmap plans to offer a similar feature in future iterations of Timberline?

Thank you for your feedback and for taking the time to review the Timberline XL. We are super stoked you are loving the Timberline XL so much. The Timberline XL is compatible with the Meater Plus Bluetooth probes and you can have more access to more than just one probe when cooking. You can monitor this straight from an app on your phone, just like the grill’s WiFire. You can achieve the extra smokey flavor by using the low and slow method, meaning lowering the temperature for a longer period of time or placing your food on the upper rack instead of the lower rack. As long as you are not attaching anything to the grill, as modifying it in any way will void your 10-year warranty, using a smoke tube is based on personal opinion and tastes desired. At this time, we do not have any details on additional smoke tubes in manufacturing but watch our website and social media for updates when new products are released. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us from 6 AM - 10 PM MT, 7 days a week, and one of our team members will be happy to answer any concerns or questions you may have.

Well made. Easy to put together with decent provided tools. Loved the little things like the cardboard fort, stickers, and six pack directions. Also the attention to detail when fabricating made it easy to assemble. So far loving my investment.
