Smoker operation.
Problem getting unit up to temp when using water tray. dosen't seem to hold smoke as much as I would like. No insulation to hold heat. Otherwise a very nice smoker. Would probably invest in a more expensive one next time.

Great product
very easy to put together and seals wonderfully. The smoker is very substantial and not like others I have purchased in the past. This makes it a little heavier than others but also makes it much more durable and usable. I love the extra water pan which was included. Well done Cuisinart.

A definite read for first time user…
Smoker is a very entry level smoker. Lots of modifications have to be done to make it work successfully. (Youtube videos are a must, and will definitely help here.) The pros: Lots of room If have lots of time it can work great Built well Cons: Temp will not go above 215/220 Water tray is terrible Smoking chips tray not the best Have to watch your trays and protect them, as grease is in direct line of fire. Over all, very entry level smoker. If looking to spend a little money and get a feel for smoking, this is an option. If wanting something more and willing to pay definitely look at other options.

So Far Fine With Some Adjustments
The Good - Cabinet, Doors, Handles, Legs, & Ignition/Burner are well built. Quality Racks and Water Tray fit into dishwasher nicely. The Bad - Thermrometer off by 40 degrees so replaced for accurate one for 10 bucks. The Adjustments - I do not use water or wood chips on the Smoke/Water Tray as stated in directions - I cover it with foil with each cook. How do I get smoke? I use a smoker tube filled with wood chips/chunks (better flavor than pellets) but will sometimes will use pallets. I drilled holes on the front side of the Smoker/Water tray where I place the smoker tube and this supplies a good amount of O2 for the smoker tube (poke holes in foil where holes were drilled). The smoker tube can be easily lit quickly by placing it on smoker burner (use mits). I haven't cooked in cold weather yet and if burner cannot supply enough heat, then I will drill more holes on the other sides of Smoker/Water tray to send more heat up to the smoke box. I also cut some MDF boards that lay nicely against legs to stop cold air/wind drawing into burner box if desired. When not in use, I keep the smoker in a clean garage on a wheeled cart I built. The cart is nice because top shelf holds smoker and a prep area. The bottom shelf is big enough to hold 2 propane tanks and a couple 5 gallon buckets filled with smoking stuff. The cart also brings smoker to eye level which I like alot. I will probably get the Quisinart Smoker Cover even though my smoker is stored in garage. Prevously, I had a M*****C**** electric smoker that never regulated heat, burnt up its door seals, and melted the circuit board after using it 2 times (seemed like good idea for, set and forget smoker, but bad design). I am happy with this unit (quality and price) and don't anticipate anything ever going bad (maybe a gas regulator some day and his smoker has no electonics to break). I am happy with everything I have smoked. I take notes with my cooks and I strive to match meats/desserts prepared at the best BBQ Joints here in KC. Thanks for reading
