Brinkman 8105290C Electric Smoker
Product arrived missing all the hardware and a defective water pan. Call brinkman (27min. on hold) sent wrong parts. Used their website, with no response. Called again (47min on hold) got disconnected. Called again (45Mins. on hold) no answer I gave up. Called on more time (32mins on hold).three days later got the right parts. Quality of water pan is very poor (made in China) customer service very sloooooooow. Would not buy again!

My smoker was received as a wedding gift in 1992. We have been very pleased with this smoker over the years. It has turned out succulent smoked turkey, chicken, fish, and pork roasts. Sadly, this morning, as I proceeded to smoke a brined turkey, the plug kept tripping the breaker. I think that may be salt related as we've been near the ocean the last two years. I cannot complain. We got our use out of it and I would replace it with the same one if Brinkmann cannot sell me a replacement heating element first, as the rest of the smoker is still in good condition. I actually prefer smoking over grilling because my food does not ignite.

This is the most convenient way that I have found to prepare delicious chickens. Just add water, plug it in, go have fun for 4 hours and the food is ready to enjoy.
