Easy to use!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] One of the easiest to use smokers I have ever used. Just load up the chips in the side and let her rip. Has a drip pan you can add water to to keep things moist inside but I have found that’s not needed, that it stays pretty “steamy” on its own. Great smoker for beginners and people who want minimal effort.

Best Smoker One and Only

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have only used Masterbuilt vertical smokers for over 12 Years now. They last and perform like champs and have handled ANYTHING that I smoke. I added the external cold smoker box which makes cold smoking easy. Also easy to the amount of smoke and not having to open the door.

Jealous Neighbors!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Four years ago I moved into a condo and thought my smoking days were finished! UNTIL… I read the HOA rules and saw electric grills and smokers were allowed! The joy is back and the next day I ordered my smoker. Told my neighbors what I purchased to prevent the fire department from peeing called. Now I’m smoking for not only myself but also a few friends! This “machine” is so consistent and I love being able to settle in for overnight smokes! Ne...

Amazing quality

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using a master built smoker for about 4 years that was passed down from my grandfather after he passed. I have finally decided to upgrade and am very happy I did. Amazing quality. Easy to control and we love the window and wood chamber to easily add more chips. 10/10

Great for all proteins!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this in 2020, and use it at least a couple times a month. Set it and forget it is the main thing here. Control the heat and time, buy some wood chips and youre set

Great smoker

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the second Masterbuilt I have owned. Always does a great job no matter what I am cooking. Large enough to smoke just about anything, but small enough to be an at home appliance.

I LOVE MY 40 INCH VERTICAL SMOKER

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought my 40 inch vertical 5 years ago and it has faithfully served me well. I would recommend it over and over again. I bought the optional gravity feed dispenser so I can have long cooks without having to check my chip supply every couple of hours.

Great Smoker - long lasting

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have really enjoyed my smoker! After several years (about 10), it’s time to venture to a new smoker. Until its last smoke, it worked like a charm. The smoke filled the air, and my neighbors were waving and smiling because they knew when the ‘smoke’ was completed, they too would enjoy the bounty.
