Rec-Tec 680: Hot rods kept going out about once a year. Not enough smoke flavor( the newer ones have a extra smoke button mine did not). Wind seemed to really bother it.

PG-500: have had it a year and the only thing that I can say is at times maybe a little to much ash. I have since started cleaning my pellets and that has helped. But otherwise I am extremely happy with it!

No issues on my Memphis Elite as of yet.  Main complaint is not enough time or money to smoke more meat

Been using one since 2010 and my only complaint about my Memphis Pro is that the direct flame zone is small, only 4 patties will fit at a time, and that is crowding them.   I love everything else about it.

The stainless steel looks great when spotless but it shows every little spot so I have to spend too much time cleaning it.  I clean it because I like the way it looks when clean and I don't want guests to think that I prepare their meals in an unsanitary fashion.

Grease in the low regions is a pain to clean out.  I practically have to crawl inside the pit to get at those areas.

Multifunction buttons are annoying (press and hold two buttons simultaneously for one function, hold longer for a second function, hold even longer for a third function).  Here, Design Engineer, hold this!

I solved the blowing ash and fines problem by cleaning my pellets.

About 30lbs of use on my gmg Davy Crockett and I’m hooked on pellet grills.  Already lusting for a Yoder on comp cart but that’ll have to wait.

Occasionally needs to be started twice. 

Box over firepot will shift when moving grill so I have to check that every use. 

WiFi feature can be wonky and I’m not using it much any more. 

Cooks fantastic food tho.  I’ve had 4 racks on it at once. Could fab a second shelf for smaller meats like salmon. 

Need a cart as I’m tired of bending down to it.

The powder coating isn’t holding up so I’ll be repainting early next year.
Other than that the right side gets quite a bit hotter than the left. Not a big deal as I’ve learned to keep the food centered or move stuff around halfway through.

It's not big enough!!

On my rec tec 480, had a really bad run with igniters for a while but going on a long time on the last replacement.  Only issue really is it can be slow to get to temp if I am doing a hot cook.  But, it does get there.  I put the insulation kit on it to be ready for Thanksgiving.
