Deeply disappointed…

I wish zero stars was an options. I am baffled that there are 5-star reviews on this grill. We have been entirely disappointed with it and have tried at least ten times to smoke or cook a meal. Do not waste your money.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thanks for the candor. Striking out after ten cooks is frustrating. When a pellet grill under-delivers, it’s usually one of a few things you can fix quickly: pellet quality and dryness (old or damp pellets cause weak heat and thin smoke), airflow/cleanliness (ash in the firepot or blocked intake makes the fire struggle), and temperature strategy. Pellet grills produce a cleaner smoke than charcoal or stick-burners; you’ll taste it most at lower temps, so starting cooks in the 165–225°F range to build smoke and then finishing hotter often gives the best flavor and texture. If you want help getting it dialed in for the results you expected, our team can walk you through a quick check and setup tips at 1-800-TRAEGER. We’ll help you get cooking the way you intended.

I had a Traeger Pro 757 for 6 years and decided it was time for an upgrade. Unfortunately, I made a slight detour and chose a Recteq Deck Boss 800. Within the first 5 cooks I had three auger jams and two 130 degree over temp events. I returned it and ordered the Woodridge. It has been flawless on several long smokes and provides the performance you expect from Traeger. If you’re a Traeger owner and thinking about switching brands, think again.

Only smoker I will ever own. This smoker is easy to assemble, easy to use, and the hands-off feature is incredible. In combination with the Meater Pro probe, I can control the temperature of the grill to meet the needs of my cook time. The hopper's capacity is large enough fulfill a 20-hour cook at 225 without refilling. I can also control the temp of the grill from my phone. So if you set up an iPad to leave at home that is connected to your home WiFi, you can control your grill settings from miles away. My family and I couldn't be happier with this purchase.

I Bought this item as an anniversary gift for my boyfriend , he was so surprised and shocked, he built it himself which he said was really simple due to the instructions that you can read from your phone, once he seasoned it and started smoking meats he has not stopped , everyday it’s a new recipe , this is his favorite grill that he has ever had. The flavor that traegers hickory wood chips give burgers and tri tip is unmatched. I would buy this smoker 100 times over. He said i got him the “ Rolls Royce of smokers”. lol. 😆.

Ive been using Traegers for about 12 years now. Bought and built many. This Woodridge product out the gate has been a game changer. With the very affordable price point, especially for the huge square in cooking space. Although its a longer build now, its extremely easy and satisfying knowing i built it from the ground up. Easiest grill to date that hooked up to my wifi and Traeger App. Got 4 low and slow cooks on it already and results are amazing. Smoke flavor at low temps are the best ive had in awhile. Loving the bigger, easier to read digits on the display screen. Looking forward to putting more hours on it.

We just WON a Woodridge grill from our local (Fareway) grocery store & they gave us a bone in pork shoulder with it❣️ So of course we made it this week OMG it was so easy and delicious 😋

I thought a pellet grill would be a-lot of work and you would have to own 2 grills to do all the BBQ and Smoker Recipes. The Woodridge changed all of that. Super easy, set your grill using the digital display or your phone. The app is amazing and you can adjust any setting, even timers, the probe goal temp and temperature of the grill; Even shut it down. Now to the food. Speechless! From chicken to steaks and smoked hamburgers. I am on a constant hunt to try the next best recipe and this is from someone who hated to BBQ and sold my Blackstone because I hated cleaning it and was not a fan of the end results. Now cleaning this is a cake walk. I use the liners but the grates simply wash clean, super easy with the Traeger cleaner and a damp cloth. Occasionally I use the nylon brush, but there is no arm breaking scrubbing needed. Thank you for creating such an amazing tool to make cooking fun again. I food prep so I use it 2xs week at minimum and it is an absolute blast. The Bonus is the smell of the wood pellets all day..
